A clear hierarchy: Client → Project → Label

Clockify organizes time by projects and tags, which works well for simple use. But as soon as you manage several clients, tags quickly hit their limits.

Rytmely enforces a native Client → Project → Label structure. Every time entry has its place, and your per-client or per-project reports are clean from day one.

  • See every project of a given client at a glance
  • Analyze profitability by client, project or label
  • No more approximate tags to rebuild a hierarchy

A native MCP API for your AI agents

This is the real difference: Rytmely exposes a native MCP server. Your AI agents (Claude, Cursor, Codex) start and stop timers, list projects or report a bug straight from your workspace.

Clockify offers a classic REST API, but nothing is designed for AI agents. With Rytmely, time tracking becomes something your assistants can automate.

  • MCP tools: start/stop a timer, list projects, report a bug
  • Works with Claude, Cursor, Codex and any MCP client
  • 200 MCP calls per month included on the free plan

Hosted in Europe, GDPR compliant

Clockify is published outside the European Union and your data is hosted in the United States. For a European agency or IT services firm, that raises compliance questions.

Rytmely hosts all of your data in Europe and complies with GDPR. The interface is fully localized and built for agencies, freelancers and IT services firms.

  • Data hosted in Europe, no transfer outside the EU
  • Interface, support and documentation available in French
  • Modern, lightweight product, available as a PWA

Simple, transparent pricing

Let's be honest: on raw price and the number of free users, Clockify remains more generous, with unlimited users on its free plan.

Rytmely offers a free Solo plan (1 user, unlimited clients and projects, 200 MCP calls/month), a Team plan at €8/user/month and a Scale plan at €16/user/month. You pay for the structure, MCP and European hosting, not just a stopwatch.

  • Free Solo: 1 user, unlimited clients and projects
  • Team: €8/user/month
  • Scale: €16/user/month
