I have a DevOps consulting company (shameless plug https://elasticbyte.net) and been on the lookout for a time tracking solution. I've been using AirTable and just adding in hours manually into a table, but it has really been limiting.

How is the reporting in Timestrap? Can a run a query like give me the sum of hours for client Acme Inc from March 23rd to April 23rd?

It has the ability to do this at the API level but not on the interface yet. All the reporting functionality is coming over the course of the next week since that's pretty critical to time tracking.

Right on. You going to charge (hosted solution)? I'd like to support you.

I don't really have any interest in making money on this project and I feel like a hosted solution defeats the purpose. The best support you could give is writing some issues on GitHub, testing things, helping with documentation, or submitting some features.

Will do. You should think about charging, it is a forcing function and prevents you from working on the wrong features (developer creep)

Paid feature requests. If the user (like the GP) wants a certain feature and don't want to implement it himself, accepting his offer to pay would benefit both parties.
