About Timely
The time you spent, not the time you remembered.
Connect Timely and ProhostAI can work with tracked hours per property, so effort is measured without depending on anyone remembering to log it.

The flaw in most time tracking is that it requires an act of discipline at the exact moment you are busy. Property management is interruption-driven — a call, a problem, a guest — and none of those moments involve reaching for a timer.
Timely takes a different approach, capturing activity automatically so hours can be assembled afterwards rather than declared in advance. That fits a business where nobody works in neat billable blocks.
Connecting it lets those hours be attributed to properties and owners, which is what turns the data into something usable — a view of which properties consume disproportionate effort, and which management relationships are quietly unprofitable. Automatic capture matters here precisely because the properties that eat the most time are the ones where nobody had a spare hand to record it.

Setup

Open ProhostAI and go to Settings → Connections.
Search for Timely and select Connect.
Sign in to Timely and approve the permissions.
Ask where time went last month to confirm the connection works.
Good to know
Structure projects to mirror properties or owners so the totals mean something.
Timely stays the system of record for tracked time.
The value is comparative — one month tells you little, a season tells you which properties are expensive to manage.
Revoking ProhostAI in Timely’s settings ends access immediately.
Questions about Timely
How is this different from Harvest?
Timely leans on automatic capture rather than manual timers, which suits interruption-driven work. Both can be connected; you would normally use one.
Why measure time per property?
Because percentage-based fees assume effort scales with revenue. Measuring shows which properties and owners are actually profitable to manage.
How should projects be structured?
To mirror properties or owners, so the totals answer a question you would actually ask.
How long before it is useful?
A season rather than a month. The value is comparative, and short samples in a seasonal business mislead.
How do I disconnect Timely?
Open Settings → Connections in ProhostAI and disconnect it, or revoke ProhostAI in your Timely settings.
