About Rize

Rize is an automatic time tracking and team visibility platform designed for service-based businesses, agencies, and professional firms. It runs in the background on desktop to capture work activity without manual timers or intrusive monitoring. The platform automatically categorizes time by client, project, and task using AI, then rolls up data into dashboards showing utilization, billable vs non-billable hours, and profitability by client. Built with privacy-first principles, Rize never captures screenshots or keystrokes—only reading window metadata. Team members review and approve their time before leadership sees it. Ideal for creative agencies, law firms, accounting firms, consulting practices, and freelancers who need accurate billing data and project profitability insights without sacrificing trust or adoption.
