Built for the Reality of Services Work

Services teams don't work in isolation. Time, expenses, projects, assignments, billing, and approvals all need to stay aligned. OpteraOS connects them — so every hour and dollar flows cleanly into delivery, reporting, and invoicing.

Time Tracking That's Fast for Teams

Designed to minimize friction — without sacrificing accuracy

OpteraOS makes time entry simple, flexible, and hard to get wrong.

  • Weekly timecards with all assigned projects
  • Daily and weekly totals calculated in real time
  • Decimal hour support (e.g., 1.25, 2.5)
  • Billable and non-billable tracking
  • Task and milestone selection per entry
  • Automatic validation against business rules

Timecards auto-save as you work — so nothing gets lost.

Smart Shortcuts That Save Time

Enter less. Track more accurately.

OpteraOS includes multiple ways to speed up time entry for recurring or planned work.

  • Copy from any previous week
  • Populate from scheduled assignment hours
  • Bulk weekly hour distribution
