Projections are useful, but they are still estimates. The paycheck is the receipt, and reconciling against it is where a tracker either earns your trust or quietly drifts away from the truth.
Enter the real numbers
When a check arrives, you log its gross, net, pay date, and pay period in Clocked, plus any line items like taxes, insurance, or a bonus. That is the ground truth the app reconciles everything else against.
The shifts settle up
- The real net is allocated across the shifts that paycheck covered, pro-rated by each one’s projected gross.
- Those shifts finalize - their money is now actual, not estimated, and locked.
- Your learned take-home rate updates, so the next projection is a little sharper.
Made a mistake? Editing or deleting a paycheck reverts its shifts back to worked, so nothing is ever stuck. Your pay schedule - weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, or monthly - tells the app which shifts a check should cover in the first place.
Your pay data has no business leaving your phone
What you earn is about as private as data gets. Clocked keeps every shift and paycheck on your device, with no account and nothing to track.
The summit date is optional
Most tracking apps make the date a required field. But plenty of people remember the mountain perfectly and the date not at all.
Half a million mountains, zero network calls
Peak search could have been an API call. Shipping 50 MB of SQLite instead made the feature work in the one place it matters most.
