Built for billable consulting work

We built Hourvio for consultants who live and die by the billable hour and the engagement budget. Every minute has to land on a client, match the negotiated rate, and fit inside the hours the statement of work allows. Utilization targets need to be answerable without a spreadsheet, and clients increasingly expect a tidy report attached to every invoice.

Hourvio puts the whole chain into one workspace. A one-click timer captures billable hours against the right engagement, four-level rate cards apply the numbers you negotiated, project budgets with threshold alerts catch overruns before they happen, and the summary and detailed reports give clients a row-per-entry view that matches the invoice to the cent.

Everything runs on European servers in Germany. No screenshots, no webcam monitoring, no keystroke logging. Your consultants are the experts your clients are paying for, and the product treats them that way.

One-click timer

Start or continue a timer from any view, keep editing the description while it runs, and long-running alerts catch the ones you forgot to stop.

Client-ready reports

Summary, detailed, and weekly reports export to CSV and Excel, and finalized invoices carry your firm letterhead for client hand-offs.

Project budgets with alerts

Attach time or money budgets to every engagement with fifty, eighty, and one hundred percent alerts plus velocity forecasts for burn rate.

Billable rate cards

Four-level rate hierarchy resolves from workspace default to project override to task rate to per-user negotiated numbers automatically.

Utilization clarity

Personal and team dashboards show billable vs non-billable splits, top projects, and utilization percentages per consultant.

Exports for month-end

CSV and Excel exports of every report keep their active filters, so what finance sees on screen is exactly what lands in the file.

  1. Set up the engagement

    Create a project for every engagement. Attach the client profile, contract value, currency, and a budget matching the statement of work. Add the consultants who will work on it, and the project is ready to receive billable hours from day one.

  2. Configure rates

    Set the billable rate at the project level, the task level, or per consultant where negotiated rates apply. The four-level hierarchy picks the most specific rate on every entry automatically, and every change carries an effective-from timestamp.

  3. Track billable hours

    Consultants run the timer against their engagement, type into the weekly grid, or add manual entries after the fact. Every entry snapshots the rate at creation, carries the description that lands on the invoice, and respects the project budget as it grows.

  4. Share reports with clients

    Pick the summary, detailed, or weekly report for the engagement, filter by date range and tag, and export to CSV for client hand-off or Excel for deeper analysis. Every export carries the active filters, so the client gets exactly what you saw on screen.
