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

Put reliable hours behind every Microsoft Planner 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 Microsoft Planner.

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

Keep the Planner task at the center

Continue assigning work through plans, buckets, and tasks. Timeglass recognizes the task context as people move through the workday.

Follow the work beyond the task

A Planner task can lead into Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, and a browser full of research. Timeglass captures that related activity and prepares one useful entry for review.

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.

Useful from day oneYour first draft timesheet appears after a normal workday.

A few things teams ask first.

Do I need to add a timer to Microsoft Planner?

No. Timeglass runs alongside Microsoft Planner and drafts time from the workday. Your team can keep using the task setup they already have without adding another timer to every item.

Do I need to start and stop a timer for Microsoft Planner 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 Microsoft Planner?

Yes. Work that starts in Microsoft Planner 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 Microsoft Planner 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 Microsoft Planner 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 Microsoft Planner timesheet can write itself.

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