We're Evernow. And we've been annoyed since 2016.

An agency from Frankfurt that tried a lot of tools. None of them really fit the daily grind of an agency.

So, bit by bit, we built what fits us. No pivot, no market gap, no pitch deck. We just wanted to stop copying numbers between tabs. docket has been our everyday tool ever since, which is why it's full of the small stuff you only learn by sending real invoices to real clients.

Not too big.

Not too fiddly.

Details sweated. Everything connected.

Work and money always lived in two tools. Not here.

Three stations, one set of data. What you plan gets tracked. What you track gets billed.

Plan

Decide what gets done

Tickets, boards, labels and a roadmap you can drag around. The whole project, from briefing to “done”, in one place.

Track

Know where the hours go

As many stopwatches as you need, side by side. Pick the ticket afterwards. The hours flow straight into reporting, budgets and the invoice.

Bill

Get paid for the work

Quotes, invoices, external costs and forecast. The commercial side hangs on the work that earned it.

The fine print we actually read.

Anyone can build a ticket board. This is what decides whether your Friday afternoon stays calm.

Quote → order confirmation → invoice. Watertight.

Down-payment, partial and final invoices that deduct everything already billed on their own. docket complains loudly when something doesn't add up.

Side noteSo it isn't you who notices in December.

External costs, line by line.

Split one supplier invoice across several projects and mark the exact spot in the PDF. The client gets a clean overview plus only the relevant pages. Not 84 pages for one line item.

Side noteRebillable or not? Decided per allocation. Nothing slips through unnoticed.

Künstlersozialkasse. Yes, really.

Mark a supplier as subject to the German artists' social insurance (KSK) and docket adds the levy to every invoice automatically, at the official rate for the invoice year. Your accounting team will send flowers.

Side noteRounded to the cent, by the way. Learned that the hard way.

Show, don't forward.

Shareable, read-only links with time, budget and, if you like, the state of every ticket. Clients can look as often as they like. You stop writing status emails.

Side noteAlways current. Attaching the wrong version: impossible.

A forecast without babysitting.

Give work a service period and the forecast builds itself: what's billed, paid and still open. Nobody updates forty tickets on Friday.

Side noteControlling at project and agency level. PMs, this one's for you.

As small as a Post-it. As big as a relaunch.

A one-day job needs a title and a deadline. A six-month project gets phases, budgets and a roadmap. docket is fine with both and never forces micromanagement.

Side noteTickets, boards, roadmap. As much as the project deserves.

And now, a look into the engine room.

The details above sit on this foundation. Six areas that talk to each other.

Projects

Every project at a glance. No unfolding.

All projects in one list, grouped by client: status, budget used, progress and deadline side by side. Open one and the dashboard shows budget, open work and who's sitting on it.

Budget usage and ticket progress per project
Grouped by client, sorted and filtered the way you look at it
Billing status as a dot right in the list

The project list in docket, grouped by client

Tickets

Tickets that carry the whole conversation.

Every project is a stream of tickets: prioritised, labelled, discussed, done. Todos, comments, budgets and tracked time hang on the ticket. Nothing gets lost in chat.

Boards for the overview, list for the work
Priorities, labels and deadlines that mean something
Comments, attachments and todos in one timeline

Roadmap

A roadmap you can actually touch.

Phases on a timeline, by the dates that matter. Drag to plan, switch between weeks and months, and see what's running, what's late and what's coming. Optional: small projects don't need it.

Reschedule phases and tickets with drag & drop
Weeks or months, filtered to what you care about
Today is always marked. No hunting for the line.

Time tracking

Time tracking that stays out of the way.

Track on the ticket, check the week on one screen, and the hours flow into budgets, reports and billing. No extra tool, no Monday-morning guessing.

Current week against your real working time
Round to quarter, half or full hours, your call
Every entry hangs on a ticket and a service rate
Per project: hours by person and service, budget left

Billing

From quote to paid invoice.

Quotes, order confirmations and invoices live on the project they belong to. So do the supplier invoices you pass on. The forecast shows what's billed, paid and still open this year.

Billing cycle: quote, order confirmation, down-payment, partial and final invoice
External costs allocated per project, rebillable or not
Forecast of all quotes and invoices, month by month
Controlling per project and for the whole agency

Jira

Your team stays in Jira. The numbers land here anyway.

Link a project and docket mirrors the issues, read-only. Jira stays the source of truth for the work. Time is booked on the mirrored ticket, worklogs from Jira or Tempo come across, and every hour lands in budget, client report and invoice.

Issues mirrored automatically, a few minutes after the change in Jira
Booked in docket, it shows up in Jira as your own worklog
Or keep booking in Jira/Tempo. docket imports both
No double counting: pushed and imported hours are reconciled

And there's more where that came from.

Client reports

A read-only view of the project for the people paying for it. No login, no export, no slide deck. One link, always current. You decide whether budget and names are visible, and you can change or delete it any time.

Workload

Who has air next week and who definitely doesn't: planned work against real working time, per person. No spreadsheet.

Every role sees what it should. Revenue, budgets and invoices stay with PM and Admin. Two-factor login is optional; admins can make it mandatory.

AI-ready. If you are.

You bring your own AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor …) and connect docket via MCP. The AI sees exactly what that person sees in docket, no more. If you don't connect anything, nothing leaves.

An admin switches it on, everyone connects for themselves, one click disconnects again. The AI may only book, change and delete your own time entries, and only after asking you.

What docket is not.

Positioning by leaving things out.

~~A “Work Operating System”~~It's a tool.

~~Fourteen modules and a consultant~~It's one login.

~~Reimagining the future of work~~It's sending the invoice out.

~~Gradient hype~~It's a table with numbers that add up.

~~A Jira-style option jungle~~Sensible defaults.

~~Forced AI~~You can connect it. But you don't have to.

Pricing that asks for your role, not your modules.

Quick questions, straight answers.

Is this yet another all-in-one platform?

It's a tool for tickets, time and money that connects those three things. It doesn't do your laundry.

Do I have to plan every ticket in detail?

No. Small project: a title and a deadline. Big project: phases, budgets, roadmap. docket is fine with both and never demands micromanagement.

We work in Jira. Now what?

Stay there. We mirror the tickets, and time and money land with us: in the budget, the client report and on the invoice.

Do we have to use AI?

No. The connection is off by default until an admin switches it on, and it only works for people who connect an AI themselves. What the AI reads goes to its provider, under your contract with them.

What about e-invoicing?

In the works: XRechnung and ZUGFeRD, for the German B2B obligation. You'll find the current status on the roadmap.

What does it cost?

Currently €0, every seat, every role. After that €5 to €20 per seat and month, depending on the role. Details on the pricing page.
