OpenToggl is a free, private-first, AI-friendly alternative to Toggl.
Toggl is a great product, but it's expensive and your data doesn't really belong to you. On top of that, the 30 requests/hour API limit is painful — an AI agent can burn through an hour's quota in a single minute.
OpenToggl aims to stay aligned with Toggl, so you can move your data in and out between the two without any loss. Keep every workflow and habit you already have. Nothing changes — it just gets better, cheaper, and more private.
OpenToggl works directly with toggl-cli, so AI can help you record, manage, and review your time. Apply the Lyubishchev time management method to find the black holes in your day.

OpenToggl's design is inspired by Toggl, and we aim to stay compatible with their product surface so you can keep your existing workflow.
We also thank Linux Do for their support and feedback during the project's early development.
