Your time, your data
BetaTime tracking that stays
on your machine.
A clean, fast desktop app for tracking your work. All data stored locally in SQLite. Optional AI assistance runs on-device or connects to your own AI services.
What you get
Simple by design. Private by default.
No project management, no invoicing, no team features. Just a precise record of how you spent your day, stored only on your computer.
One click to start
Press a button or a shortcut. A time block begins. Press again to stop. Name it now or later. That’s the whole workflow.
Your day at a glance
A clean timeline shows where your hours went. Drag edges to adjust blocks. Gaps and overlaps are obvious instantly.
Keyboard-first
Global shortcuts to start, stop, and switch tasks without reaching for the mouse. Designed to keep you in flow.
Native and fast
Go backend, React frontend, compiled to a single binary. Launches in under a second, uses minimal memory.
All data stays local
Everything lives in a SQLite database on your machine. No accounts, no cloud sync, no telemetry. Your data never leaves your computer.
Export anywhere
Export your time blocks to CSV, JSON, or sync directly to services you already use. You own the data, you choose where it goes.

Your data, your machine
Everything stays on your computer
A single SQLite file. That's the entire database.
$ ls ~/.local/share/Gustime/gustime.dbSingle file, your filesystem
All time blocks live in one SQLite file. No cloud sync, no remote database, no authentication server.
Zero telemetry
No analytics, no crash reports, no usage tracking. Offline and online behave identically.
Portable and yours
Plain SQLite. Open it with any tool. Uninstall the app and the database stays exactly where it is.
Optional AI
Local-first, with options
Built-in models run on your CPU to categorize time blocks automatically. Or connect your own provider. No API keys required for local models.
More models and integrations coming soon. All AI features are optional.
