Stintt vs TimeCamp
- No timer to start or stop
- Nothing installed on the laptop
- Timesheet drafted from calendar events
TimeCamp automates tracking by watching the desktop. Stintt automates it by reading the calendar — no agent, no screenshots setting, nothing to opt out of.

Accurate, but it means software watching every machine all day.
Desktop tracking runs automatically, with a manual timer for anything it misses.
Stintt vs TimeCamp, row by row
The same twelve rows every comparison on this site uses, so nothing is cherry-picked for TimeCamp. Where a capability is optional or plan-gated, it is marked partly rather than rounded either way.
TimeCamp is a capable billing product with a monitoring layer underneath: the desktop app records the applications and websites in use, attendance can be tracked by kiosk, and screenshots are available as a setting. Plenty of teams turn the invasive parts off — but "off by default" is still a switch someone can flip, and staff know it. Stintt has no such switch. Capture comes from a read-only calendar connection, so screenshots and app history are not features that are disabled; they are data that does not exist.

Three steps, and none of them is a migration.
There is no import from TimeCamp, and pretending otherwise would be the first promise we broke. There does not need to be — a connected calendar arrives carrying the history a new tracker would spend months collecting.
Connect a calendar
Read-only access, granted once. It cannot create, edit or delete an event, and there is nothing to install on anyone's machine.
The history is already there
Existing calendar events become a draft timesheet immediately, so the first week is a review rather than an empty grid waiting for data to accrue.
Review, approve, bill
Correct the draft, log anything off-calendar from chat, and approve. Only approved entries reach a client invoice, and discarded time stays on the record.
What TimeCamp leaves on the table
Three specific things, not a feature count.
Nothing to switch off
A monitoring feature that is disabled is still a monitoring feature. Stintt collects no screenshots, no activity scores and no app history, because there is no agent that could.
Capture that survives a closed laptop
Calendar sync runs server-side, so a day spent in workshops, on a client site or on someone else's machine still produces a timesheet.
Categories that mean something to a client
Meetings, focus, admin, breaks and out-of-office — categorized by what the work was, not by which application was in the foreground.
When TimeCamp is the better choice
If you need attendance and clock-in for an on-site or shift-based workforce, TimeCamp has kiosk and attendance features that a calendar-based tool has no equivalent for.
If none of that describes your team, the rest of this page is the case for switching. If some of it does, TimeCamp is a reasonable buy and we would rather you knew that here than after a trial.
What people ask about TimeCamp and Stintt
No. There is no kiosk and no clock-in. Stintt answers "where did the week go and what can we bill", not "was this person at their desk at 9am".
Calendar events cover booked work; anything off-calendar is one chat message like "fixed login bug 2h", and reminders chase days that came back empty.
Yes — a review inbox with approve, edit-and-approve or send-back-with-a-note, and only approved entries roll into a client invoice.
