Sound familiar?

## Basecamp is built for delivery. Not for getting paid.

### "The to-do is done. But how long did it take?"

Every month you manually reconstruct what happened, guess at the hours, and build an invoice from memory. You are the bridge between Basecamp and the invoice. That's not a system.

### "We're doing well. I think."

Revenue comes in, projects go out. But real margins per client? Utilization? Whether you're trending up or down? Nowhere. You run the agency on gut feel.

### "Someone needs to own this. I'll just do it for now."

Invoicing, utilization, project tracking. None of it runs itself. So it runs on you. Every month, after everyone else has logged off.

How it works

## Set it up on your coffee break. Work tracks itself from here.

Step 1

### Connect your Basecamp workspace.

Two clicks. Rinkta connects to your Basecamp projects. No migration, no installation, no team training. Your team keeps working exactly as before. Rinkta just starts watching.

![Rinkta showing completed Basecamp to-dos as billable entries](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/vsq44jiz/production/5855817355b448813b4ca300ef1b3f918958fce7-1600x1200.png?w=1600&auto=format&q=90)

Step 2

### Every completed to-do becomes a billable entry. Instantly.

Mark a to-do done in Basecamp and it appears in your Rinkta dashboard automatically, with hours estimated and your rates already applied. No manual entry. No reconstruction.

Step 3

### Invoice in one click.

Review entries, apply your rates, hit send. Client-ready invoice with your currencies, taxes, and branding. Generated in seconds, not hours.

Step 4

### Finally see the financial picture Basecamp never showed you.

Revenue, margins, and utilization tracked automatically from your Basecamp to-dos. See which clients are profitable, which are bleeding cash, and where your agency is headed. No more living month to month, blind. Just ask the AI — it knows your numbers.

FAQ

## Let's talk details

<details>

<summary>

What is Rinkta?

◀</summary>



Rinkta is an AI that turns completed work into invoices. It connects to your Basecamp workspace, captures to-dos as they get done, and estimates the time and price automatically. Everything appears in your dashboard without you lifting a finger.

When you're ready to bill, select the entries you want to include, click generate, and the invoice comes out with the right client rates, currencies, and tax details already applied. No time tracking, no end-of-month reconstruction.

<summary>

Does Rinkta replace Basecamp?

◀</summary>



No. Rinkta sits underneath Basecamp and captures completed to-dos in the background. Your team keeps their workflow exactly the same. Rinkta just handles the business layer (capturing billable work, estimating hours, drafting invoices) that Basecamp was never built for.

</details>

<details>

<summary>

How does the time estimation work? And what if it's wrong?

◀</summary>



Rinkta analyzes task descriptions, learns from your team's work patterns, and uses industry benchmarks to estimate hours. The more you use it, the smarter it gets about your specific workflow.

You can review and adjust every entry before invoicing. You're always in control of what gets billed.

</details>

<details>

<summary>

Do I need to train my team on new software?

◀</summary>



No team training required. Your team keeps using Basecamp exactly as before. The only person who needs to learn the Rinkta UI is whoever does the monthly invoicing, and that takes about ten minutes the first time.

</details>

---

<details>

<summary>

How long does setup take?

◀</summary>



About as long as a coffee break. Connect your Basecamp workspace, set your rates, add your clients, done. No multi-week onboarding, no "implementation specialist" calls. Just plug in and work.

</details>

---

<details>

<summary>

Do I still need to run a time tracker alongside Basecamp?

◀</summary>



No. That is exactly what Rinkta eliminates. Toggl, Harvest, Clockify — these tools require someone to manually start and stop timers. Rinkta captures work automatically from what your team already does in Basecamp. No timers, no micromanagement, no forgotten entries.

</details>
