Cursor Time Tracking

JustClock for Cursor

Work Time Tracking for AI-Assisted Coding in Cursor.

JustClock runs inside Cursor the same way it does in VS Code, quietly logging the time you actually spend working - whether you're typing, reviewing, or prompting.

AI can write the code, but someone still has to steer it, review it, and own the result. JustClock keeps that time accounted for.

Built for Cursor

How JustClock Tracks Time in Cursor?

Are you looking for a seamless way to log your development hours without breaking your flow? JustClock is an automatic time tracking plugin designed specifically for modern development workflows, offering full and native support for the Cursor AI code editor.

Forget about manual stopwatches or forgetting to log your hours. JustClock runs quietly in the background of your Cursor IDE, capturing every billable minute automatically.

🚀

100% Automated Tracking

The moment you open Cursor and start working on your files, JustClock begins to measure your active time. When you step away or switch to a non-coding task, the timer pauses automatically.

  • Stays out of your flow - no manual stopwatches
  • Native support for the Cursor AI code editor
  • Captures every billable minute in the background

Why Track Time When AI Writes Part of the Code?

  • Clients and managers still bill and budget by the hour, regardless of how the code got written
  • Tracks the time you spend prompting, reviewing and fixing AI-generated output, not just typing
  • Gives you real data on where AI actually saves time on your projects
  • Works per-project, so you can compare effort across clients or repos
