Memtime vs WiseTime (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Memtime if

• Fits if you bill in short increments, the way lawyers and consultants do
• Works for teams that don't want activity data uploaded to a server

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you only want basic tracking, at $14 a user a month before any integrations
• Skip it if you want a free plan, because after the 14-day trial you need a subscription to log in
• Not for you if you work on two computers and want one timeline, as activity data doesn't sync between devices
• Tight if you need more than 2 integrations, call tracking or SSO, which all mean Premium at $29 a user
• Watch out: prices are listed in dollars, but checkout charges in euros and your card provider converts it

Pick WiseTime if

• Fits if you bill by the matter and use Clio or a similar practice system
• Works for firms that don't want staff starting and stopping timers

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you aren't in legal or professional services, as the product is aimed at law firms
• Pricey if you can't tell: no price is published and Professional starts at 5 users
• Not for you if you use Android, since the phone app is iOS only
• Watch out: API access, single sign-on and custom connections are Enterprise, aimed at firms with over 50 users

Memtime

• There is no free plan; after the 14-day trial a subscription is needed to log in again.
• Automatic tracking runs only on Windows, macOS and Linux, and activity data does not sync between devices.
• Basic has no project software integrations, Connect allows 2, and SSO and call tracking need Premium.
• Dollar prices are listed, but the vendor says checkout shows the amount in euros and the card provider converts it.

WiseTime

• No prices are published; pricing is quoted through a demo request.
• The Professional plan has a 5-user minimum, keeps data for up to 12 months and uses cloud connections only.
• The mobile app is iOS only, and the vendor's focus is legal timekeeping rather than general projects.
• API access, single sign-on and bespoke connections are Enterprise features, aimed at firms with over 50 users.

Memtime

Automatic activity timeline

The app runs in the background and records time spent in programs. A day can be reviewed as a timeline, a list or a week calendar, in intervals from 1 to 60 minutes.

Activity data stays on the device

Captured activity is stored only on the user's computer and is not uploaded or synced. Only the time entries a user creates are shared with a team or an integration.

Calendar sync

Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, the macOS Calendar app, iCloud and other CalDAV calendars show appointments beside tracked activity, on every plan.

Memtime Projects

A built-in web-based project platform for creating projects and tasks, inviting users with roles and reviewing team time entries from any device, including a phone.

Project software integrations

Connect and Premium import project structures from tools such as Jira, Asana, ClickUp and QuickBooks and send time entries back in a two-way sync.

Phone call tracking

Premium adds iPhone and Mac call history and call system integrations such as RingCentral and Zoom, so calls appear in the timeline.

WiseTime

Automatic time capture

Records activity across desktop apps on Windows, Mac and Linux while the user works, with no timer to start or stop.

Matter detection

Matter IDs sync from the connected practice management system, and recorded activity is tagged against the matching matter.

AI-written narratives

Summarizes recorded activity into a description for the invoice, with preferences to adjust the style or translate it.

Private timeline

Recorded time stays private to the user until they review, edit or delete entries and post them. Rules can leave private tasks out.

Billing system connections

Cloud connections to systems such as Clio send posted time to the right client or case. Other systems need an Enterprise connection.

Team dashboard and reports

Managers see how well their team records time and can export PDF or CSV reports by person, period or tag.
