What it can and can’t do
- Can: see your clients, projects, hours, tabs and invoices; start and stop your timer; log time you forgot.
- Can’t: send invoices, email your clients, take or move money, or delete anything. Do those in the app.
- It acts as you, inside your own account only. You approve each assistant once, and you can disconnect any of them in tab under Settings → AI assistants.
No tab account yet? Connecting creates the link to your account, so sign up free first (email only, no card).
