From tracked time to a clean invoice total
Tracked time is messy: minutes here, a stray 10 minutes there, several tasks across a week. This calculator sums your entries in hours and minutes, applies your hourly rate, and shows the subtotal, tax, and grand total ready to invoice.
Rounding matters more than people expect. Billing in 15-minute increments is standard and slightly favourable; billing to the exact minute is fairer to the client. Pick the convention you've agreed and apply it consistently.
Round consistently, bill confidently
Whatever rounding you choose, state it in your terms so there are no surprises. Consistency is what makes a freelancer look professional — an invoice the client can reconcile against their own sense of the work builds trust and gets paid faster.
