SideProject Guide

Start With One Project

Create a project for each side business, product, freelance stream, or long-running experiment you want to evaluate. Keep the project name specific enough that future logs are easy to find.

Log Time and Money

Add work sessions, income, expenses, and notes as they happen. Small daily records make the analysis more useful than a large summary written from memory later.

Use Tags and Notes

Tags help separate development, marketing, sales, operations, learning, and admin work. Notes explain what changed that day, so the numbers have context when you review them.

Review ROI

Compare revenue, expenses, invested hours, hourly value, and trend changes. The goal is not only to see whether a project made money, but whether it deserves more time.

Use AI Analysis Carefully

AI analysis can summarize patterns and suggest next steps from your project data. Review suggestions as decision support, not as financial, legal, tax, or investment advice.
