From labor data to answers, without the manual reporting

Your team's hours, project budgets, and labor costs are already in ClickTime. But answering a question about them often means selecting report fields, applying filters, exporting data, and building charts.

Ellie simplifies that process. Ask a question about your labor data, and Ellie retrieves the relevant information from ClickTime and presents it as an answer, chart, or table. Follow up with more specific questions, turn the results into visualizations, and organize them into dashboards.

Ellie works with your existing ClickTime data and respects your account permissions. It helps you understand the numbers without changing the underlying records.

Can Ellie create reports and dashboards from a question?

Does Ellie use real ClickTime data, and is it secure?

Ellie uses data from your ClickTime account rather than inventing numerical results. It respects ClickTime role-based permissions, so users can only access information their roles allow. Ellie is read-only when answering questions and building dashboards, meaning it does not modify your underlying data. Data is synced periodically and may not reflect real-time updates.
