Rize Release Notes

Time Entry Suggestions 2.0

We’ve rebuilt Time Entry Suggestions from the ground up to make time tracking effortless — powered by AI, privacy-first data, and deep integrations.

How Rize Works

Rize automatically tracks your in-focus window — the app or browser tab you’re actively using.
We never capture content or screenshots, ensuring a privacy-first experience.
Your activity is condensed into Activity Blocks, and Rize’s AI:

• 1️⃣ Groups similar work into similar chunks of work.
• 2️⃣ Annotates those chunks with clear titles and descriptions.

From there, Rize generates Time Entry Suggestions — AI-powered drafts showing exactly what you worked on and for how long.
You can review and approve these from your Suggestions Inbox using one click or keyboard shortcuts.

Smarter Tagging with AI + Keywords

Rize combines your keyword rules with AI understanding to automatically assign:

• Clients by company names, domains, and URLs
• Projects by window titles, filenames, or app context
• Tasks by task names or IDs from connected tools

If you’re using ClickUp or Linear, Rize also considers due dates, priorities, and activity to deliver pinpoint accuracy.

Integrations & Workspaces

When you approve a suggestion, Rize creates a Time Entry and shares it with the workspace you choose — personal or team.
If that entry links to a ClickUp task or Linear issue, Rize automatically syncs it back with your AI-generated title, description, and duration.

Advanced Controls

In Settings → Coach, you can:

• Enable Auto-Approve mode
• Adjust Target Size for suggestions length
• Change Language of suggestions

You can also merge, split, or regenerate suggestions for perfect accuracy.

Why It Matters

With Time Entry Suggestions 2.0, Rize now:

• ✅ Tracks work privately and intelligently
• ✅ Generates detailed, readable summaries
• ✅ Tags clients, projects, and tasks automatically
• ✅ Syncs seamlessly to ClickUp and Linear
• ✅ Lets you review your entire day in under a minute

This is another big leap toward fully automated time tracking — smarter, faster, and built around your workflow.

Time Entry Review Inbox

We just shipped the final feature in our Rize 2.0 rollout, Time Entry Review Inbox.

• All your entries in one place
• Approve or reject with a single click
• Switch between block or timeline views
• A context panel with apps, window titles, websites, and activity logs
• Search for specific events when you need more detail
• Keyboard shortcuts that make tagging clients, projects, and tasks super fast
• Quick actions like merge, split, and regenerate

Part of our goal with Rize 2.0 was to make reviewing your day as simple and lightweight as possible — and this inbox helps tie everything together.

We’ve shipped a major round of improvements to Time Entry Suggestions, focused on making reviewing, editing, and refining your day faster, clearer, and more reliable.

You can now toggle an Activity Panel directly from a time entry suggestion card.

What’s New

AI-Generated Task Suggestions

Rize identifies what you're working on and suggests new tasks automatically.
Suggestions marked with the “New” badge are AI-generated based on your real activity — helping you capture unplanned work instantly.

Create Tasks Instantly from Activity

From any Time Entry Suggestion, you can now create a task:

• In Rize
• In Linear
• In ClickUp
  All directly inside the flow of approving your time.

Sync to ClickUp & Linear

You can now create synced tasks with:

• ClickUp Workspace → Space → Folder → List
• Full ClickUp status support
• Linear Team → Project → Issue Status
  Tasks appear instantly in ClickUp or Linear, fully linked back to your time entry.

Auto-Linking to Time Entries

When a task is created from your activity, Rize automatically links it to the relevant time entry.
Approve with one click, and you're done.

Auto-Generated Descriptions

After approval, Rize automatically generates a clean description and syncs it to ClickUp or Linear — keeping your task documentation consistent and effortless.

Why This Matters

Most tasks don’t get created until after you’ve already started working on them — or they never get created at all.
This feature helps you:

• Capture work the moment it happens
• Keep ClickUp and Linear perfectly up to date
• Reduce context switching and manual task creation
• Maintain clean task + time alignment
• Move closer to fully automated time tracking

If you're running Rize version 2.0 on macOS and experiencing performance problems, please reinstall the app. We’ve seen issues when the Intel-chip installer was used instead of the Apple Silicon (M-Chip) version on machines with Apple Silicon.

Steps to fix

• Go to our download page: app.rize.io/downloads
• Choose the correct installer:
  • For Macs with an Apple Silicon chip (M1, M2…), select “macOS (M-Chip)”.
  • For Intel-based Macs, select “macOS (Intel Chip)”.
• Uninstall the current version of Rize (if you prefer) or overwrite with the correct installer.
• Launch the app and check for smoother performance.

Why this matters

• Apple Silicon (M-Chip) Macs use a different architecture than Intel Macs, and running the Intel version via emulation (Rosetta) can degrade performance.
• Installing the correct native version ensures Rize runs optimally, taking full advantage of your hardware.

New multi-account integrations

You can now connect multiple ClickUp and Linear accounts to Rize — perfect for agencies and teams working across different clients, workspaces, or contractors.

With this update, you can:

• Add multiple ClickUp Workspaces to your Rize organization
• Add multiple Linear Workspaces to your Rize organization
• Sync tasks, projects, and statuses from each integration independently with different settings
• Auto-tag time to the right client, project, and task — even if your work spans multiple accounts
• Support contractors and partners who use separate ClickUp/Linear environments

This unlocks a much more flexible setup for multi-client agencies, cross-functional teams, and anyone juggling multiple ecosystems.

Available today in Settings 16 Integrations.

What’s New

We’ve added a new automation to help teams and professionals keep their timesheets clean, consistent, and fully up to date.
Rize can now automatically approve time entry suggestions within 24 hours for any workspace that enables this option.

Why We Built It

People told us that reviewing every time entry is helpful but not always necessary. In many cases, suggested entries are accurate, especially when powered by Rize’s new AI auto-categorization and smart tagging.
For agencies and teams that want smoother billing cycles and fully up-to-date reports, this new feature removes friction and prevents stale, unapproved entries from piling up.

How It Works

When enabled for a workspace:

1. At the end of each day, Rize checks for users with Auto-Approve turned on.
2. If the user is active in the workspace and the workspace is set as their default workspace, Rize will send a notification to review time entry suggestions.
3. The next morning, Rize automatically approves all pending time entry suggestions from the previous day.

New Workspace Setting

You can now toggle this under:

Settings 1 Time Entry Suggestions 1 Auto-Approve after 24 hours

Just be sure to set the correct workspace as your default workspace in:

Settings 1 Coach 1 Default Workspace

Perfect for teams and professionals that want:

• More accurate invoicing
• Faster billing cycles
• Less manual oversight
• Cleaner daily reports
• Guaranteed approval without chasing team members

Rize update highlights

Rize just got smarter at understanding how you work.

With this update, every Time Entry Suggestion now includes Client, Project, and Task suggestions, so your time is automatically organized with minimal effort.

You can review and accept these suggestions with a single click — and if your workspace is connected to ClickUp, accepted entries are automatically synced back to your ClickUp account.

Time Entry Suggestions

To make Rize even more accurate, you can now add keywords to your Clients, Projects, and Tasks. These keywords act as signals for Rize’s AI, helping it recognize when you’re working on a specific client or project.

Keywords for Clients, Projects, and Tasks

For example, adding “https://rize.io/client-y” or "Client y" to a client helps Rize understand that activity in Meta Ads belongs to that client automatically.

Learning and automation

Over time, Rize learns from your accepted entries and gets smarter, reducing the need for manual tagging altogether.

This update is another step toward our goal of fully automated, intelligent time tracking.
