frequently asked questions

Can freelance video editors handle unpredictable render times with hourly planning?

Absolutely! Block out realistic render windows in your schedule, and when renders finish early, you'll see exactly what task to jump into next. The visual timeline helps you plan around your computer's processing time instead of being surprised by it.

How does PlanHourly help with managing multiple client projects?

Use color-coded categories to separate each client visually on your timeline. You'll instantly see when to switch between projects and can ensure each client gets their allocated time without projects bleeding into each other.

What if urgent client revisions mess up my planned schedule?

The drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to quickly shuffle tasks when priorities change. Move non-urgent work to tomorrow and your schedule adapts instantly—no rewriting your entire day.
