Clockoli review
A focused, free time-billing extension for GitHub-based teams.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Clockoli is an open-source time-tracking browser extension for individuals and teams that manage work through GitHub. It records time against GitHub issues and pull requests, while also allowing arbitrary website URLs to serve as tasks. The product combines timers, inline time editing, calendar and draggable timeline views, cross-repository team reports, browser-local billable hourly rates, exports, and invoice generation. Its strongest fit is a GitHub-based development team that wants time data stored in its own GitHub repository rather than in a separate tracking server or per-seat subscription service.
Pricing is straightforward: the Free plan costs 0 and is free forever. It includes open-source access, no seat or usage limits, time tracking, reporting, exports, and invoicing. The plan also covers CSV, JSON, and PDF exports, plus invoice generation from filtered reports. Because Clockoli has one listed plan and an open-source model, teams can evaluate its full stated feature set without comparing paid tiers. Repository storage with Git history gives the product a distinct data-management approach, while browser-local billable rates keep hourly rate information within the browser context.
The main trade-off is focus. Clockoli integrates with GitHub and is delivered as a Chrome/Chromium extension, so its workflow is closely tied to that browser and ecosystem. Its feature set reaches beyond basic timers with mixed time capture, editable records, reporting, and billing outputs, but the product is still positioned around GitHub work rather than broad, multi-platform time billing. It should suit teams whose work already lives in GitHub and who value open-source control. Organizations seeking wider platform coverage or a less GitHub-centered workflow should consider an alternative.
