I built my own time tracker because I was tired of paying for features I never used

I’m a freelance developer, and over the years I’ve used Harvest, My Hours, Toggl and Clockify. They’re all good tools, but they’re built for teams. I kept paying for seats, approvals and planning features I never opened. All I actually needed was a timer, a monthly view of who I worked for, and an invoice at the end. So I built Konsola, the smallest version of that I could live with. Tracking is free: timer, weekly timesheet, clients and projects with hourly rates, and reports you can exp

痛点：自由职业者被迫为团队协作功能（席位、审批、排期）付费，实际只需要计时、按客户汇总的月度视图和一键出 invoice

目标用户：独立开发者、设计师、顾问等单人作业的自由职业者（1 人公司）

证据：I kept paying for seats, approvals and planning features I never opened. All I actually needed was a timer, a monthly view of who I worked for, and an invoice at the end. / The only paid part is invoicing ($5/mo).

变现：免费计时 + $5/月订阅解锁 PDF 发票与周期性草稿生成；后续可做按发票张数计费或报税/多币种增值包

MVP：两周内做一个纯单人版：一键计时器 + 客户/项目时薪 + 周/月工时表 + 导出 CSV/PDF 发票，支持从 Toggl、Clockify 导入 CSV 历史数据，只做一个平台（如 Mac 菜单栏或 Chrome 扩展）

竞品：Harvest、Toggl Track、Clockify、My Hours、Konsola（本贴产品）

摘要：一名自由职业开发者厌倦了为 Harvest、My Hours、Toggl、Clockify 的团队功能付费，自建了极简工具 Konsola：计时、客户/项目时薪、周报和 CSV/PDF 导出免费，只有发票功能收费 $5/月，并已做 Chrome 扩展和 Mac 菜单栏应用。痛点真实且已被自身付费行为验证，但时间追踪赛道极度拥挤、差异化仅靠“更简单+便宜”，竞品壁垒低。
