Short answer

How can I use AI to audit my billable time?

Your AI uses ClickTime tools to pull specific time logs and client lists. It then compares these entries against your project requirements to find discrepancies. You'll get a clear list of missing or misallocated hours.

Audit outcomes.

Where errors land.

The AI handles the data heavy lifting so you can focus on the fixes.

DISCREPANCIES

Flagged billing errors

The AI identifies entries that don't match client profiles or project scopes. You get a list of specific timestamps to review.

MISSING DATA

Unbilled work found

By comparing client lists to logged hours, the AI spots gaps where work happened but no time was recorded. This ensures you don't leave money on the table.

RECONCILIATION

Cleaned client lists

The AI organizes time entries by client to make sure every hour is attributed to the right account. This makes end-of-month reporting much easier.

HUMAN REVIEW

Actionable audit logs

The AI won't change your data. It provides a summary of suspicious entries that you must manually approve or correct in ClickTime.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

The AI acts as a second pair of eyes on your time tracking.

  1. Identify clients

    The AI pulls your current client roster to establish a baseline for the audit.

  2. Pull time logs

    Your agent fetches the specific time entries you want to inspect.

  3. Cross-reference entries

    The AI compares the fetched logs against the client list to find mismatches.

FAQ

How the audit behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI edit my time entries?

    No. The AI can only read your data. You have to go into ClickTime to make any actual changes to entries.

  • 02

    Can the AI delete client records?

    No. The tools only allow the AI to list clients and entries. It cannot delete or modify anything in ClickTime.

  • 03

    How does the AI know if an entry is wrong?

    It looks for patterns you define, like entries assigned to the wrong client or hours that don't align with your project setup.

  • 04

    Do I need to manually export CSVs for the AI to read?

    No. Once connected, the AI pulls the data directly using the ClickTime tools.

  • 05

    Can I audit specific employees?

    Yes, if you ask the AI to filter the time entries by a specific person's name or ID.
