Bottom line: The two cheapest entries in the class, both at $3.99 per user per month annual, and the free tiers are where they part. Clockify caps free at five users; TimeCamp leaves free unlimited on users and projects. Clockify counters with kiosk limited seats from $0.79 and a denser reporting toolset; TimeCamp counters with an AI time tracker metered at roughly $6 per user per month. Below five users either works; above five, TimeCamp is the only free option.

📎 The price leader: a genuinely usable free tier for teams of up to five and the lowest paid entry at $3.99 per seat per month annual. The free tier is now explicitly capped at 5 users — earlier material claiming unlimited free users is out of date. Reporting depth and polish trail Toggl.

Pros

  • Free for up to 5 users with unlimited tracking, timesheets, auto tracker and desktop and mobile apps
  • Lowest paid entry in the class at $3.99 per seat per month annual, with every active or invited user counted as a seat
  • Kiosk mode for shared devices sells limited seats from $0.79 per seat per month annual, far below full seats

Cons

  • The free tier's 5-user cap is a real limit, and older material claiming unlimited free users no longer reflects the page
  • Reporting and polish trail Toggl, and the interface rewards people who are comfortable with dense tooling
  • The combined CAKE.com bundle at $27.97 per seat per month bundles tools most buyers do not want

TimeCamp · 4.1/5

Free plan available · $3.99/user/mo (Starter, annual)

Seat-based, but the free plan already allows unlimited users and unlimited projects. An AI Time Tracker add-on bills by token usage at an estimated $6 per user per month for time-entry suggestions, with the trial including $10 in credits. Enterprise is custom-quoted.

Annual billing: Starter $3.99, Premium $6.99, Ultimate $9.99 per user per month

Unlimited free users · AI time entries · Invoicing · Desktop idle detection

TimeCamp is the unlimited-free pick: a free forever plan with unlimited users and unlimited projects, paid tiers from $3.99 per user per month annual, and an AI time tracker billed by token usage.

📎 The best free-tier headline in the class — unlimited users and unlimited projects at $0 — and a paid floor of $3.99 that matches Clockify. The AI time tracker is metered separately by tokens at roughly $6 per user per month, so the effective price is higher than the plan price if you enable it.

Pros

  • The most generous free tier in this comparison: unlimited users and unlimited projects at $0 forever
  • Paid floor of $3.99 per user per month annual matches Clockify, with invoicing and reporting included from Starter up
  • Desktop app with idle detection and automatic time-entry suggestions reduce the manual timer habit

Cons

  • The AI time tracker is billed by token usage at roughly $6 per user per month, more than the plan price itself
  • Premium and Ultimate at $6.99 and $9.99 annual move past Clockify's equivalents for teams that need those tiers
  • Less third-party review volume and a smaller integration catalog than Toggl or Harvest
