The problem

Contractors lose thousands every week — and don’t even know it.

Time theft, manual payroll errors and no real-time project visibility cost small and mid-size contractors 5–15% of revenue every year.

Smart Track fixes all four — in one platform.

GPS-enforced clock-in/out, automated payroll, real-time project billing, material tracking and labor compliance.

Time theft is invisible

Workers punch in from the parking lot, take longer lunches, or add minutes they did not work. Without GPS validation, you pay for time that was not on the job.

Manual payroll means errors

Spreadsheets and paper timesheets create mistakes. Overtime goes wrong, workers get over- or underpaid, and accounting spends hours fixing it.

You don’t know your real margin

Without real-time cost tracking by project, you only find out you lost money at the end of the month — when it is too late to react.

Billing is disconnected from the field

Hours, materials and overtime live in different places. Invoicing takes days and often misses billable items.

How Smart Track works

From clock-in to client invoice.

One connected workflow replaces paper timesheets, payroll spreadsheets and manual invoicing.

Enforce presence. End time theft.

Workers clock in on a job-site tablet. Smart Track checks their GPS against the project geofence and records a photo and signature — if they are not there, they cannot punch in.

Why Smart Track

What makes Smart Track different

Anti-fraud by design

Three-point verification on every punch: GPS geofence, photo and signature. Buddy punching stops on day one.

No special hardware

Any tablet with a browser becomes a job-site time clock. Set up your company, projects and geofences in about 20 minutes.

Built for US labor rules

Weekly overtime, per diem, reimbursements, W2 employees and 1099 contractors — calculated for you, not in a spreadsheet.

One source of truth

The same approved hours feed payroll, gross billing and your margin dashboard. No re-typing, no reconciliation.

Your brand, your subdomain

Each company gets its own workspace and subdomain, with its logo and colors on every screen your team sees.

English, Spanish & Portuguese

Crews and office staff use the system in the language they are most comfortable with.

“We went from managing 200+ workers on spreadsheets to having complete visibility of every hour, every project and every dollar — in real time.”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Smart Track prevent buddy punching?

Every clock-in and clock-out is validated three ways: the device location must be inside the project geofence, a photo of the worker is captured, and the worker signs on screen. Supervisors see all three on the entry before approving it.

Do I need to buy special time clock hardware?

No. Smart Track runs in the browser. Any tablet with GPS and a camera can be set up as an on-site kiosk, and office staff use the dashboard from any computer.

Does it calculate overtime and per diem automatically?

Yes. Regular and overtime hours are calculated from approved entries, and per diem and reimbursements are added to the weekly payroll. W2 and 1099 workers are processed separately.

Can I bill my clients from the same data?

Yes. Gross billing uses the approved hours together with the rates you configure per client, project and role, so invoices reflect exactly what happened in the field.

What happens when a worker forgets to clock out?

Supervisors can add manual entries, edit or split time with a full audit trail, and overtime alerts warn you before the week closes.

Which languages are supported?
