The problem it solves

When your client and project list lives in Notion but your team tracks time in Clockify, someone has to manually keep both updated every time something changes. Miss an update and time gets logged against the wrong project, or a closed client stays active.

Who it fits

Agencies and teams that manage clients and projects in Notion but track time in Clockify.

How it works

  1. On a schedule, the system pulls clients, projects, and tasks from both Notion and Clockify
  2. It compares the two lists to find any differences
  3. New or updated items in Notion are created or updated in Clockify
  4. Archived or closed items in Notion are marked archived in Clockify too
What you get

Client and project records that always match

Your clients and projects stay consistent between Notion and Clockify without anyone re-entering them.

What you get

Clockify clients, projects, and tasks that stay automatically in sync with Notion.

What you need

A Notion account and a Clockify account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
