Document Extra Work Before It Disappears
Log invisible work, protect your hours, and keep scope conversations factual.
Time Ledger is a manual documentation tool for freelancers who need a defensible record of revisions, quick favors, overrun calls, and background fixes. It includes optional manual session capture, but it is not surveillance and it is not automatic tracking. It is structured proof.

The Risk
When extra work stays informal, it becomes unpaid
Quick favors pile up without a record
Calls run over and nobody tracks the extra time
Revision requests expand beyond what was agreed
Invoice disputes become memory versus memory
What You Get
A manual ledger built for protection, not monitoring
Manual logging and session capture
Capture the date, hours, client, project, and context for extra work so nothing important stays vague. Start a session manually, then review it before saving.
Scope protection
Create a clean record of revisions, unexpected requests, and over-limit work before resentment builds silently.
Exportable documentation
Export your entries to CSV and use them as structured support for invoice defense or internal review.
How It Works
Three steps to clarity
Start or log manually
Either log work directly or start a manual session timer when work begins.
Review and classify the session
Before saving, confirm the duration, add context, and mark whether the work was planned, unclear, extra, or overrun.
Use the record when clarity matters
Export or review the ledger when discussing invoices, scope changes, or repeated unpaid work.
This tool records only what you choose to log. Sessions are manual and nothing is tracked automatically.
Protection by restraint
Time Ledger is intentionally user-controlled. No screenshots. No activity monitoring. No hidden timers. Salag protects the professional record, not the worker's screen.
