About Timely
Timely is a Norwegian technology company that provides an AI-driven time tracking platform. Unlike traditional manual timers, Timely uses a 'Memory Tracker' to automatically record activity across various applications, which its AI then organizes into suggested timesheets. This approach aims to provide 100% accurate logging for agencies, consultancies, and remote teams. The service is built on a 'privacy-by-design' philosophy, distinguishing itself from surveillance or monitoring software. Tracked data (memories) are private to the individual user and cannot be seen by managers or administrators until the user chooses to review and share them. Headquartered in Oslo, the company serves over 5,000 businesses globally.
