Harvest is the time tracker for agencies and consultancies that bill clients by the hour. Teams track time against projects and tasks, then turn those hours into invoices without retyping. Teams costs $9 per seat per month on annual billing, or $11 monthly, and Enterprise is $14 per seat per month on annual billing, or $17.50 monthly. A free plan covers 1 seat and up to 2 projects, and a 30-day free trial needs no card. The limits are the extra fees and the tier split. Subscription plans add usage-based Flex fees for active projects, clients, tasks and invoicing on top of the seat price, so the advertised rate is not the full bill. Profitability reporting, timesheet approvals and SAML single sign-on are Enterprise-only. Harvest suits an agency or consultancy that tracks time to invoice clients and wants clean billing from tracked hours.
