Overview

How Timelint fits agency delivery: tickets, service desk inside projects, client portal, and retainer boundaries.

Timelint is ticket-first project management for agencies.

It’s designed for teams that run:

  • multiple client projects
  • support retainers (monthly hours)
  • client intake + status updates

The mental model

Timelint keeps the Jira-style nouns:

  • tickets
  • boards and workflows
  • issue keys

The goal is the same workflow, with less overhead.

Ticket boards
Boards stay useful when status and ownership stay legible.

If you’re setting up a new account, start here:

Service desk inside projects

In Timelint, service desk is a project capability, not a separate system.

That means support intake, triage, and delivery stay attached to the same tickets and workflow.

Service desk queue
Triage works when the queue lives inside the project workflow.

Client portal

Clients can submit requests, follow status, and reply in a single thread per ticket.

Client portal
Requests in, status out, with one thread per ticket.

Retainer boundaries

Retainers fail when the boundary is fuzzy. Timelint keeps contract hours and time logs tied to tickets so the boundary is auditable.

Ticket time tracking
Log time with a description (and remaining hours on service desk tickets).
