AI agents for Timely
A Monmo agent works in Timely the way a studio manager's assistant would. It reviews the hours your team has logged before the week closes, reports on project budgets and team capacity, keeps tags consistent and turns a month of logged work into a plain update for the client. It uses your own Timely account and asks before it logs, edits or deletes any hours.

What agents do in Timely
Review logged hours before the week closes
Every Friday it compares each person's logged hours with their capacity, lists short days, hours with no project and meetings in Google Calendar that have no time against them.
AskEvery Friday at 3, check the team's logged hours in Timely against capacity and list anything that looks missing.
Report on project budgets
Each Monday it reads hours and money logged against every project budget and tells you which have passed the warning level you chose, with the people and tags behind the spend.
AskEvery Monday, list Timely projects past 80% of budget, with who logged the most hours on each.
Write the capacity report
Once a month it sets logged and billable hours against each person's capacity and writes a short report on who is stretched, who has room and how the billable share has moved.
AskWrite the October capacity report from Timely: logged versus capacity per person, and the billable share by team.
Turn logged work into a client update
From the hours and notes logged on a project this month, it drafts a client-ready summary of the work done and what comes next, without internal notes or rates.
AskDraft a client update for Acme from this month's Timely hours on their project. Leave out internal notes.
Keep tags consistent
It finds tags that mean the same thing, hours tagged inconsistently across the team and projects with no tags at all, and proposes a tidy list and the edits to match.
AskOur Timely tags are a mess. Suggest a clean set and list the hours you'd retag.
Set up a project with its budget
When a new job is agreed, it drafts the Timely project with the client, budget, hourly rate and team from the proposal, ready for you to approve.
AskCreate the Northwind brand project in Timely from this proposal: 90-hour budget, our standard rate, design team.
Prepare billing figures
At month end it totals billable hours by client and project and prepares them as a Google Sheets summary or a draft invoice in Xero or QuickBooks for your approval.
AskTotal November's billable Timely hours by client and draft the invoices in Xero. Don't send them.
How it connects
- 1You connect your own Timely account once. The agent works with the projects, hours and people that account can see; Timely keeps each person's automatic activity timeline private, and the agent works with hours that have been logged.
- 2You choose which agents may use Timely. An operations agent who watches budgets and capacity needs it; a finance agent may use it at month end; other agents can stay out.
- 3Reading hours, projects and budgets needs no approval. Logging or editing hours, creating a project, changing a budget or rate, or retagging entries asks first, and the batch is shown on one card.

Questions people ask
Can an AI agent manage timesheets in Timely?
It reviews them and prepares the corrections. A Monmo agent compares logged hours with capacity and your calendar, lists what looks missing or misfiled and proposes the edits on one card. It saves only when you allow it, through the Timely connection or in its own browser when the connection does not cover something.
Can the agent see my private Timely timeline?
The agent works with what your connected Timely account can reach, and it uses logged hours, projects and budgets for the jobs on this page. Timely treats each person's automatic activity timeline as private to them. If you want something from yours counted, log it first.
Can it warn me before a project goes over budget?
Yes. The agent reads the hours and money logged against each project budget on a routine you choose, and tells you when one passes your warning level, with the people and tags behind the spend. What to do about it, from rescoping to an extra invoice, is your call.
Can it write client updates from Timely hours?
Yes. The AI agent reads the hours and notes logged on a project for the period, groups the work into a few plain points and drafts the update in your tone, leaving out internal notes and rates. You edit it, then allow it to be sent from Gmail or Outlook.
