Automatic time and activity tracking

AutoTime, Smokeball’s automatic time tracking technology, will revolutionise the profitability of your firm, across both your time billed and your fixed fee matters. Multiple large scale studies have shown that the average firm is only billing 2.02 hours per fee earner per day. With AutoTime firms are billing 4.1 hours per fee earner per day on average. This equates to an additional $135k per fee earner annually. For your fixed fee work, AutoTime will show you which matters and clients are profitable and show opportunities to focus on your best work. We see that at least 2 hours of billable work every day is lost due to untracked time spent on email management, firm document management, meetings, and then with delays in filling in timesheets. At Smokeball practice management software we believe you should be getting paid for the work that you do – especially when you’re using our best in class productivity tools to minimise administrative time and maximise efficiency.
