Context
I led the design of a calendar-driven time tracking experience for 7pace, focused on reducing friction in daily logging across complex enterprise workflows. Traditional time tracking tools were disconnected from how people actually work.
Problem
Users had to reconstruct their day manually, switching contexts and relying on memory. This created cognitive overload, inconsistent data, and low engagement with time tracking.
Concept
I reframed time tracking from recall to recognition. By integrating calendar events directly into the workflow, users can log time based on what already happened. The solution introduced a unified calendar where worklogs and external events coexist, allowing users to review, convert, and edit entries inline within a familiar interface.
Outcome
This reduced friction in daily logging and improved consistency across teams. Users could log time faster with less effort, increasing adoption and data accuracy. It also established a scalable foundation for approvals, reporting, and automation.
