No automatic billing
At the end of your 5-day trial, no charge is made. There is no automatic switch to a paid plan. You retain full control: it's up to you to decide whether you want to continue by subscribing.
Full access for 5 days
Throughout the trial period, you benefit from all of Mataee's features:

Unlimited project and task creation
Time tracking for your entire team

The Mataee trial period lasts 5 days, starting from the date your account is created. This is enough time to evaluate the tool under real working conditions.

Collaboration: invite collaborators, role and permission management
Billing: generate invoices based on time spent

Find the details of all these features on our dedicated page: Features.
No commitment, no credit card
The trial is completely free. No credit card is required at sign-up and no charge is made at the end of the period. You remain free to subscribe or not.
What happens after the 5 days?

Question 4

Do I need a credit card to try Mataee?

Accepted Answer

No, no credit card is needed to try Mataee. We chose not to ask for any payment information at sign-up, so you can test the tool with complete confidence.
A 100% free sign-up
To create your account, only three pieces of information are required:

Your first and last name
Your email address
A password

That's it. No credit card, no bank details, no IBAN. You can start using Mataee immediately after signing up.
Why this choice?
We believe a time tracking tool should prove its value before asking for a financial commitment. By removing the payment barrier, we give you time to discover Mataee at your own pace, test it with your team, and concretely measure the benefits for your business.
When does payment come in?
Payment only occurs if you decide to subscribe after your 5-day free trial. At that point, you can choose your plan and enter your payment information.
If you don't subscribe, no charge is made. There is no hidden billing or automatic renewal.

Question 5

How do I set up my organization after signing up?

Accepted Answer

After creating your Mataee account, a few configuration steps let you tailor the tool to your organization. Here's how to get up and running quickly.
Name your organization
Go to your organization settings from the main menu. Enter the name of your agency or company. This name will appear on reports and documents generated by Mataee.
Fill in your details
Complete your organization's information:

Address: used for billing and official documents
Phone number and contact details
Logo: to customize your exports and reports

Set your default hourly rate
Configure the reference hourly rate for your organization. This rate will be used by default when creating new projects and for profitability calculations. You can always customize it on a per-project or per-collaborator basis.
Invite your collaborators
Mataee is designed for teamwork. From the settings, you can invite your collaborators by email. Each member will receive an invitation to create their own access. You can assign different roles based on each person's responsibilities (administrator, collaborator).
Create your first projects
Once your team is in place, create your first projects by entering:

The project name and associated client
The estimated budget in hours or amount
The collaborators assigned to the project
