Summary
Threshyr runs as a passive background process on Windows and macOS, logging every app and URL without requiring you to touch it. Custom tagging rules assign shared tools to specific clients, so the same browser session can be split across three projects without guesswork. Focus blocks are classified automatically — deep, normal, distracted — giving you an honest timeline of where the day fractured. The ceiling appears at team scale: there is no multi-seat management, no API, and no integration with project management tools. Solo freelancers fit cleanly inside it; anyone needing a shared workspace does not.
Bottom line: Pick this if you bill by the hour and want accurate invoices without a cloud account — pass it over the moment your workflow requires syncing data across devices or a second person needs access.

Pros
- Passive background logging without timers, so hours worked across late-night context switches and app-hopping sessions are captured rather than lost by the time the invoice is due.
- On-device AI classification with custom keyword and URL tagging rules, which means shared tools like a browser or Slack can be split accurately between multiple clients without manual annotation.
- 100% offline architecture with no account required, so there is no vendor data exposure, no breach surface for client activity logs, and no rate increases tied to a cloud pricing model.
- Yearly flat pricing with all features included and future updates bundled in, which means no paywalled offline mode or enterprise tier required to get background tracking — the feature that competing SaaS tools routinely gate.
Cons
- Single-machine only with no sync across devices: if you split work between a desktop and a laptop, each machine holds a separate timeline with no way to merge them. Teams tracking hours across hardware switch to a cloud-based alternative and accept the SaaS overhead.
- No API and no native integrations: exporting billing summaries is a manual step, and nothing connects automatically to accounting software, project management platforms, or invoicing tools. Freelancers who bill through FreshBooks or QuickBooks maintain a separate manual transfer step indefinitely.
- Windows-only at the point the vendor page was scraped, with macOS listed as forthcoming — users on macOS who need the tool today have no install path and no migration plan for when it arrives.
- No multi-seat or shared workspace support: the moment a second person — a business partner, a collaborator, or an accountant — needs access to the same time records, the architecture has no answer. That is the condition under which a team abandons Threshyr for Toggl or Harvest.

Manual tracking leaves gaps in client invoices
Manual time tracking fails quietly — you forget to start the timer, switch apps mid-task, and reconstruct the invoice from memory at month’s end, always leaving something off.
Automatic logging and tagging
Threshyr runs as a passive background process on Windows and macOS, logging every app and URL without requiring you to touch it. Custom tagging rules assign shared tools to specific clients, so the same browser session can be split across three projects without guesswork. Focus blocks are classified automatically — deep, normal, distracted — giving you an honest timeline of where the day fractured. The vendor states the tool stays fully offline with no account required.
Limitations at scale
The ceiling appears at team scale: there is no multi-seat management, no API, and no integration with project management tools. Single-machine use means no sync across devices. Exporting billing summaries stays a manual step.
Who it is for / who should skip it
Threshyr fits freelancers and solo professionals who need accurate billing from tagged activity and prefer private local records with yearly pricing. Teams or users needing shared workspaces, cross-device sync, or automated connections to accounting tools should skip it.
