Timeglass follows the Jira task through the rest of the workday and prepares the finished time entry.

Put reliable hours behind every Jira task.

Project management tools keep tasks, owners, and deadlines organized. The hours often end up in a separate timer or a spreadsheet filled in from memory. Timeglass connects the plan to the real workday and drafts the record while the context is still clear.

Set up once, then keep using Jira.

Timeglass brings your tasks and your workday into the same record, while each person stays in control of what they approve.

Bring Jira work items into Timeglass

Connect Jira through Atlassian Rovo MCP and import the work items your team already uses. The issue key and project context stay attached when Timeglass drafts the hours.

Follow the work beyond the task

Timeglass follows the issue into the code editor, pull request, design review, Slack thread, and release notes. The final entry covers the work from planning through release.

Review the finished time entry

Timeglass drafts a clear entry with the project, description, and duration already filled in. The person who did the work can check it, make any changes, and approve it.

The task travels across more than one app.

A reliable time entry needs more than the minutes spent looking at one task page. Timeglass follows the related work across the apps your team already uses, then keeps the evidence together in one private daily record.

Nothing is shared until the person who did the work reviews it.

Put accurate hours behind every Jira project.

Once the hours are attached to the right work, project plans can be compared with what delivery actually required.

Sprint effort

See the hours behind stories, bugs, and technical chores without asking engineers to keep a second running record during the sprint.

Project cost

Include planning, implementation, review, and release work when comparing engineering effort with a client budget or internal forecast.

Maintenance work

Separate incidents, support requests, and maintenance from roadmap delivery so recurring operational load is visible in planning.

Start tracking Jira work this week.

Create a Timeglass workspace, add the desktop app, and invite your team. Connect Jira through MCP when you want to bring existing tasks straight into the workspace.

One short setupInstall the desktop app and choose your work hours.
Private by defaultPeople see and review their own activity first.
Useful from day oneYour first draft timesheet appears after a normal workday.

A few things teams ask first.

Can I import Jira tasks into Timeglass?

Yes. Connect Jira through MCP and bring existing tasks into Timeglass with their project context. Your team can track time against that work without recreating every task by hand.

Do I need to start and stop a timer for Jira work?

No. Timeglass records work in the background, so forgetting to start a timer does not create a blank space in the timesheet. Each person reviews the result before it is shared.

Can Timeglass track work that happens outside Jira?

Yes. Work that starts in Jira may continue in documents, meetings, messages, design files, code, or browser tabs. Timeglass includes that surrounding activity when it drafts the entry.

Can employees review their Jira time first?

Yes. Each person sees and approves their own drafted entries. They can change the project, description, or duration before the time is released to a manager.

Can I report on Jira project hours?

Yes. Approved time can be grouped by client, project, person, or activity so managers can compare actual effort with plans, budgets, and delivery targets.

Your Jira timesheet can write itself.

Give your team a normal workday and get an accurate project record at the end of it.
