switching between different clients and projects leaves you mentally drained, and you never know if you're spending the right amount of time on each one.
color-code each client so you can instantly see your workload balance and ensure fair time allocation.
urgent revisions and new projects constantly derail your planned schedule, making you feel like you're always behind.
drag tasks around your schedule in seconds when priorities shift, without losing sight of what still needs to get done.
working from home means no clear boundaries between work and life, leading to burnout and resentment from family.
block out personal time and breaks just like client work, so you can point to your schedule when someone asks 'are you busy?'

frequently asked questions
Can PlanHourly help me track time for different translation clients?
Yes! Use color-coded categories to distinguish between clients at a glance. While PlanHourly focuses on planning rather than time tracking, you'll have a clear visual record of how you allocated your time across different projects.
What happens when a client sends urgent revisions that mess up my planned day?
Simply drag tasks around your schedule to accommodate urgent work. PlanHourly's visual interface makes it easy to see what needs to be moved and helps you communicate new timelines to other clients.
As a freelance translator, I work irregular hours depending on deadlines. Is this flexible enough?
Absolutely. Each day starts fresh in PlanHourly, so you can plan different schedules based on your workload. Set up recurring blocks for regular clients, then customize individual days as needed for rush projects.
