Rize Release Notes

We just shipped a set of quality-of-life improvements that make reviewing and tagging your time significantly faster.

Batch Actions for Time Entry Suggestions

You can now multi-select time entry suggestions and take actions on them all at once — no more clicking through entries one by one.

How It Works

• Hold ⌘ (Mac) or Ctrl (Windows) and click to select multiple suggestions — selected entries highlight in purple.
• Batch tag — assign or clear clients, projects, and tasks across all selected entries at once.
• Batch approve — approve all selected suggestions with one click.
• Batch delete — remove unwanted suggestions in bulk.
• Batch recreate — regenerate suggestions for selected entries.

Batch actions also work in the timeline view. Use Select All or Option-click to pick specific entries, then tag or approve them from the top bar.

Improved Activity Clustering

We've upgraded our algorithm for detecting different activities. Previously, Rize used K-Means clustering to group your raw activity into time entries. We've switched to an activity-change detection approach that produces more accurate and natural groupings — entries that better reflect when you actually shifted between tasks.

Time Entry Grouping Control

A new Time Entry Grouping setting lets you control the size of your time entries:

• Slide toward more, smaller for granular entries that capture each individual task.
• Slide toward fewer, larger for broader entries that combine related work.

Everyone starts at the middle, which we've found to be a great default. After adjusting, clear your current suggestions and recreate them to see the difference.

These updates are live now — give them a try and let us know what you think.

We're excited to introduce our Asana integration (Beta) —bringing seamless two-way sync between Rize's automatic time tracking and your Asana tasks. Now you can effortlessly log time against specific Asana tasks, keep your team's hours up-to-date, and maintain accurate project timelines without manual data entry.

Key Features

• Two-way sync: Time logged in Rize automatically updates your Asana tasks, and changes to task names in Asana sync back to Rize in real-time via webhooks
• Flexible workspace selection: Choose which Asana workspaces to sync and map them to specific Rize teams
• Granular control: Select specific team members and projects to include or exclude from syncing
• Automatic time entry suggestions: Rize's AI-powered tracking continues to work seamlessly, now with the ability to assign tracked time directly to Asana tasks
• Project and assignee tracking: All synced tasks maintain their project associations and assignee information

How It Works

• Navigate to Settings → Integrations and click on the new Asana integration
• Authorize the connection in your browser—you'll be redirected back to Rize automatically
• Select which Asana workspaces you want to sync and choose the corresponding Rize workspace
• Pick specific team members and projects to include (or sync everything)
• Once connected, Rize will pull in your Asana tasks with their projects and assignees
• When Rize generates time entry suggestions from your automatic tracking, simply select your Asana team, choose a task, and save
• Your logged time appears in Asana immediately, and any task updates in Asana sync back to Rize in real-time

This integration brings the best of both worlds: Rize's effortless automatic time tracking combined with Asana's powerful project management. As this is a beta release, we'd love to hear your feedback and any issues you encounter. Happy tracking!

We've completely reimagined how you navigate and analyze your time data in Rize. The new Calendar and Home views separate your daily workflow from historical analysis, giving you purpose-built interfaces for tracking your current day, reviewing past performance, and identifying patterns across weeks, months, and years.

What's New

A Dedicated Home Dashboard

Your new Home is mission control for your daily workflow. Instead of forcing you to navigate through calendar views to find what matters most, Home presents three essential cards at a glance:

• Pending Time Entries: Quickly review and approve entries that need your attention
• Daily Summary: See your most important metrics with a quick link to dive deeper in the Calendar
• Admin Dashboards: Fast access to custom dashboards, profitability reports, and team analytics

Redesigned Calendar Views

We've rebuilt the Calendar from the ground up with dedicated views for every time range. The daily view now includes customizable timeline settings, letting you toggle which columns appear and adjust your time entry generation preferences directly from the interface. Summary cards are cleaner, more informative, and collapsible when you just want to focus on your timeline.

Week View: Your Weekly Performance at a Glance

The new week view breaks down your data into multiple dimensions. View your week by time entries, tasks, projects, or clients. The summary tab shows session analytics, comparing your scheduled time against actual activity. You'll see your work hours target, daily average work time, and quick access to your top apps and websites. Activity view reveals how you're spending time across different categories, with hover details for each event.

Month View: Visual Pattern Recognition

Month view transforms your calendar into a heat map of productivity. Each day displays your top four categories at a glance, making it easy to spot patterns and shifts in how you're allocating time. Click any day to drill into the details. Whether you're viewing time entries, tasks, projects, or clients, you'll immediately see which areas are consuming your hours and how that changes week over week.

The sessions view is particularly powerful for understanding your focus time. Are meetings eating into your deep work? Is your focus time trending up or down? The month view shows your focus average and identifies your top interrupters, helping you protect your most valuable hours.

Year View: The Big Picture

Year view gives you the 30,000-foot perspective on your time. Hover over any day to see details, or click through to explore specific periods in depth. View your entire year broken down by time entries, tasks, projects, clients, or activity. It's the perfect tool for quarterly reviews, annual planning, or understanding long-term trends in how you work.

Custom Range: Your Data, Your Way

Need to analyze a specific sprint, project phase, or billing period? Custom range lets you define any date range and see the same rich breakdowns available in other views. Perfect for generating reports that align with your unique workflow.

How It Works

• Start your day on Home: Check pending items, review your summary, and access your most important dashboards from a single screen
• Navigate to Calendar for analysis: Use the time range selector to switch between Day, Week, Month, Year, or Custom views
• Customize your timeline: In daily view, use the timeline settings to show or hide columns based on what matters to you
• Switch between data slices: In Week, Month, and Year views, toggle between Time Entries, Tasks, Projects, Clients, Summary, and Activity tabs to see different perspectives on the same period
• Drill down on demand: Click any day, week, or data point to jump to a more detailed view
• Collapse summaries: When you just need to see your timeline, collapse the summary cards for a cleaner workspace

These new views represent a major step forward in how Rize helps you understand and optimize your time. We've separated the concerns of daily tracking from historical analysis, making each use case clearer and more powerful. This is just the beginning—we'll continue iterating on Home and adding new capabilities to help you work smarter. We'd love to hear what you think!

We're taking a major step toward fully automated time tracking with AI Confidence Scores and Auto-Tagging. Rize now shows you how confident our AI is about each tag suggestion and can automatically apply tags when confidence is high enough—meaning less manual work for you and more time entries that are ready to go.

What's New

• Visible AI Confidence Scores: Every tag suggestion now displays a confidence score (0-100) so you know exactly how certain our AI is about client, project, and task recommendations.
• Automatic Tag Application: Set a confidence threshold in your settings, and Rize will automatically apply tags when our AI meets or exceeds that level—no manual clicking required.
• Customizable Automation: You're in control. Adjust the threshold from 0 (fully manual) to 100 (only auto-tag when AI is absolutely certain) based on your preferences.
• Smarter Time Entry Suggestions: Your pending time entries can now arrive pre-tagged and ready to accept, dramatically reducing the time you spend organizing your data.

How It Works

When Rize generates time entry suggestions based on your activity, you'll now see a confidence score next to each AI-recommended tag. A score of 95, for example, means our AI is highly confident that the tag is correct.

To enable auto-tagging, head to your Timeline Settings and adjust the AI confidence threshold slider. Set it to 90 or 95, and any suggestions meeting that confidence level will automatically have tags applied. When you return to your dashboard, those entries will be pre-tagged and ready for you to simply accept.

Prefer to review every tag manually? No problem. Just slide the threshold down to zero, and Rize will continue showing suggestions without auto-applying them. You can also hover over any suggestion to see its confidence score before accepting.

Our mission is to make time tracking completely automatic, and this feature brings us significantly closer to that goal. We'd love to hear your feedback on how AI confidence scoring and auto-tagging work for your workflow—let us know what you think!
