About TickyTime

Empowering 5 million+ professionals worldwide with free, privacy-first timing tools since 2020.

Our Mission & Story

Founded on Simplicity

TickyTime was born in 2020 from a simple frustration: why should professionals pay $60-180 annually for basic timing tools? Our founders, experienced software engineers from healthcare and finance sectors, recognized that essential productivity tools should be accessible to everyone.

What started as a weekend project has grown into a platform serving over 5 million monthly users across 190+ countries, from Fortune 500 executives to freelance consultants.

Privacy-First Philosophy

Unlike competitors who monetize user data, TickyTime operates on a privacy-first model. We collect zero personal information, use no tracking cookies, and store all preferences locally on your device.

Our commitment to privacy isn't just ethical—it's practical. By eliminating data collection infrastructure, we can offer professional-grade tools completely free while maintaining lightning-fast performance.
