From Trello card to billable hours.

For freelancers and teams who manage client work in Trello. Keep the task, the estimate and the time together, so invoicing starts with a record of the work.

  1. 01

    Track time on a card

    Start a timer where the work happens. Add a manual entry if you forgot to track, or start timers when cards move into a list.

  2. 02

    Keep estimates in view

    Set an estimate for a card or each teammate. Compare it with tracked time and enable alerts as you approach the limit.

  3. 03

    Take the hours to invoicing

    Mark billable time, assign it to a client, and export a filtered CSV report to use in your invoicing workflow.

A Limita timer running on a Trello card

Start tracking with one click

The timer sits on the card your team already opens. One click to start, one to stop, and only one timer running per person at a time.

Card estimate showing hours spent against the estimate

Know when a card is going over

Compare tracked hours with a card or member estimate. Enable alerts at 80%, 90%, 100% and 120% to spot work that needs attention.

See where the week actually went

Filter time by member, board, client or date range. Review billable hours, switch between calendar and graph views, and export a CSV for invoicing.

Every feature. On either plan.

Timers, manual entries, estimates and reporting are all included in your trial, monthly plan and annual plan.

Card timers

Start and stop a timer on a Trello card. One active timer per person keeps time entries from overlapping.

Estimates

Set estimates for a card or each teammate. Compare tracked time with the plan and enable threshold alerts.

Billable hours

Separate client work from internal time, assign clients and hourly rates, and report on billable hours.

CSV reports

Filter by member, client, board or date range. Choose your columns and export the time you need for invoicing.

Live updates

Keep timers and totals in sync across your team’s open boards and cards.

Visual reports

Review tracked time in calendar and graph views to understand how the team spends its time.

Auto-start

Configure timers to start or stop when cards move between lists in your workflow.

Manual time entries

Forgot to start the timer? Add a time entry afterwards and keep your reports up to date.

Questions before you start?

Trial, billing and setup, explained.

How does billing work?

One price per Trello workspace, with unlimited users and boards on it. $10 per month, or $96 per year which works out to $8 per month. Payments are handled by Stripe.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. 14 days with every feature unlocked, and no credit card needed to start.

Do I pay per user?

No. The price covers the whole workspace no matter how many people or boards are on it, so adding a teammate never changes your bill.

What happens when the trial ends?

Tracking stops but nothing is deleted, and your reports stay readable so you can still export everything you logged. Tracking resumes the moment you subscribe.

Who can set Limita up?

Anyone on the board can track time. Connecting Limita to Trello has to be done once by a board admin, and that is what switches on auto-start timers, checklist sync and estimate alerts. Limita will show you who can do it.

Does my board need to be in a Trello Workspace?

Yes. Limita reports and bills per Workspace, so a personal board outside a Workspace cannot be tracked. Move it in via the board menu, under Settings, then Change Workspace.

Can I get my data out?

Any time. Export to CSV with the members, clients, boards, date ranges and columns you choose. The data is yours and there is no lock-in.

Is my data secure?

Workspace data is kept separate, and connections are encrypted. We use service providers to run Limita. Our Privacy Policy and Sub-processors page explain how data is handled.

Make your next Trello card count.

Try timers, estimates and billable reports with your own team. Every feature is included for 14 days.

No credit card required. $10/workspace/month or $96/year after your trial.
