Connect Claude & ChatGPT to TimeCamp

Ask your AI to start a timer on a task, log yesterday's hours, or add up the time your team spent on a project. It can list and edit time entries, create and update projects and tasks, record and update expenses, check attendance and timesheet approvals, and submit time-off requests in TimeCamp.

Try asking

“Start a timer on the Website redesign task.”
The AI finds the task and starts your timer on it.
“Stop my timer.”
It stops the running timer and saves it as a time entry.
“Log 3 hours yesterday on the Acme project as billable, note: workshop prep.”
It creates a time entry with the date, duration, task, note and billable flag.

What your AI can do

Time tracking

Start and stop timers, see what is running, and create, update, tag and delete time entries.

Projects and tasks

List and search projects and tasks, create tasks and subtasks, and rename, move or archive them.

Expenses and attendance

Record, list and update expenses, see attendance and timesheet approvals, and submit time-off requests.

“How many hours did the team log on Acme last week?”
It lists the time entries between the two dates for the project's tasks and adds them up.
“Record a 45 EUR taxi expense on the Acme project.”
It looks up the expense category and records the expense with amount, date, user, task and billable flag.

Questions

What can the AI do in TimeCamp?

It can list time entries, projects, tasks, users, tags, attendance, timesheet approvals, expenses and expense categories, and check the running timer. It can start and stop timers, create, update, tag and delete time entries, create and update projects and tasks, record and update expenses, and submit time-off requests.

Does the AI see my TimeCamp credentials?

No. Your TimeCamp credentials are encrypted at rest and never shown to the AI. After you save them, they are not shown again, not even to you. The AI only sees the results of the tools it calls.

Can I control what the AI is allowed to do?

Yes. You choose which tools are switched on, so you can start with read-only lookups. Deleting a time entry is permanent and can require your approval before it runs. Every tool call is logged.

Does it work with ChatGPT?

Yes. In ChatGPT go to Settings › Apps & Connectors › Advanced and turn on Developer mode, then add your HeyMyApps link. Developer mode needs a paid ChatGPT plan: Plus, Pro, Business or Enterprise. The same link also works in Claude (Settings › Connectors › Add custom connector), Cursor and other MCP clients.

What does it cost?

HeyMyApps has a free plan with no credit card required. Paid plans bill per completed task. You also need your own TimeCamp account.

How does TimeCamp handle projects and tasks?

TimeCamp stores projects and tasks the same way, as tasks. A task placed under another task becomes its subtask. The AI can create a task under a parent, move a task to another parent, or archive it.
