About ZERO Apollo
Apollo is a timekeeping software that automatically captures your billable work on your computer, iPhone, and iPad. It works in the background and captures your time spent on Outlook emails and attachments, as well as other systems such as Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Zoom, and many other applications. Importantly, Apollo allows to choose between keeping track of either only your activities or both activities and time. This way, it helps to tailor the application to match your individual timekeeping needs. Afterward, Apollo seamlessly integrates the time and activities into your timekeeping system. Thus, Apollo automates the whole capture and timekeeping process, allowing you to save time on administrative tasks that must be completed daily. Apollo makes your timekeeping effortless and efficient.
Apollo provides you with features you need to automate your timekeeping. With Apollo you can:
- Fully capture all interactions with client-related emails and attachments. Apollo automatically creates time entries for interactions with client-related emails and attachments on your desktop using Outlook. These entries include an AI-generated narrative as well as a predicted client and matter when there is an available prediction. Moreover, Apollo can include the elapsed time if you select to track duration in addition to activity. Time that was formerly reconstructed and entered manually or simply written off is now billable.
- Keep your timekeeping habits. Apollo is designed to work with your timekeeping flow, stacking on top of your existing habits, whether you are a contemporaneous timekeeper or reconstruct your time, or fall somewhere in between.
- Keep track of your time or only activities. It’s your time, your choice — get help tracking the duration of either your time and activities or only your activities, depending on whatever approach of timekeeping you need the most help with automating.
Note: The time capture functionality referenced in this document is only applicable to you if you have selected to capture time and activities vs. only activities. - Have more accurately captured time and client bills. With the help of Apollo, you remove the administrative drag of manually keeping and entering time, thus saving your time on administrative tasks that must be completed daily.
