What I Need at a Reasonable Price
I was previously using a free plan on a different time tracker until i got an email saying they changed the terms of the free plan which prevented exports to csv.
I'm happy to say that Hoursmith supports csv exports, manual payments for those of us that don't use stripe and it has an MCP which i was able to get connected to my hermes agent.
The toughest part about using Hoursmith would be the migration, without the MCP it would have taken a lot of clicking to migrate, with the MCP i gave Hermes agent a list of clients and task templates and Hermes agent created all it on autopilot. I was even able to take it a step further by giving Hermes agent old time export to see if it could import those into Hoursmith and it succeeded.

Jul 9, 2026Thank you so much for sharing this, I really appreciate it.
Data portability was one of the things we cared about from the start, so it means a lot to hear that CSV exports mattered to you. We also know not everyone wants or needs Stripe, so manual payments were important for us to support properly too.
The part about using the MCP with your Hermes agent is especially exciting. That is exactly the kind of workflow we wanted to make possible: less clicking, easier migration, and more automation for people who already have their own systems and agents.
I’m really glad you were able to migrate your clients, task templates, and even old time entries successfully. Thanks again for trying Hoursmith and for leaving such a detailed review.
