Engineering and architecture

Drawing, calculating, meeting. All on the right project.

A revision that came back again, a calculation for a colleague, a site meeting that ran long. Half5 remembers which project you worked on, so your budget reflects reality.

The project ran over. No one knows exactly where the hours went.

Large projects run over months and phases. The small tasks in between end up in the wrong place—or nowhere at all.

Half5 links drawings, emails and meetings to the right project. All you do is check if it's correct.

The firm sees your hours, not your timeline.

Your timeline is only on your own devices, end-to-end encrypted. Project leads, admins, and Half5 can't open it. The agency only sees the hours you submit, with project and activity.
