Why This Matters for Graphic Designers

You're designing a brand identity for Client A while Client B's website mockups are due Friday. You switch between projects four times today and your Toggl timer is on the wrong client for an hour. Client C emails asking for 'just one small change' to the logo you delivered last month — revision 8 on a project you quoted flat-rate. By the end of the day you've worked 9 hours but can only bill for 6 because the rest was admin, emails, and untracked context-switching.

Graphic Designers face unique challenges: Tracking billable hours across 5+ client projects. Scope creep — 'one more revision' eating into fixed-price projects. Separating creative time (billable) from admin time (not billable). FreshBooks + Toggl combined costing $27+/month for basic time tracking and invoicing. On top of all that, Toggl Track charges $18/month ($216/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median graphic designer earns $52,000/year. Software at $216/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Adobe Creative Cloud subscription is yours. You bought it once. Helix works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

FAQ

Is Helix really a Toggl Track replacement for graphic designers?
