We're happy to announce the conclusion of the LiveTimer Beta. Thanks to our many users who have made the Beta period so successful. Your valuable feedback has helped shape LiveTimer into the product it is today, which we hope will meet your time tracking needs for years to come.

Now that the Beta is complete, all existing accounts have been transitioned to the standard 30 day free trial period. If you wish to keep your account beyond the trial period, we will begin accepting credit cards soon. We will email further instructions soon to everyone listed as a Billing Contact in your account (which can be verified through the Users tab).

Even though LiveTimer is out of Beta, we will not stop refining and improving it. Please continue to check our News page (or subscribe to our RSS feed) for updates.

We're pleased to announce the new LiveTimer API (Application Programming Interface). The API can be used by developers to extend any desktop, or web-based, applications to include time tracking. Also, you can use the API to integrate your LiveTimer account with your company's project management or accounting systems.

The LiveTimer API adheres to the REST principles as closely as possible. Resources, such as projects, users and time entries, each have a unique URI. These resources are controlled using the primary HTTP verbs: GET, POST, PUT AND DELETE. Data is returned in XML format.

If you'd like to learn more, please read our extensive documentation of the LiveTimer API.

If you have any questions or feedback about the API, please email us at support AT livetimer DOT com.
