Know what each project
actually makes you.

Kaalam works out what your approved billable hours were billed at and what all approved hours cost you. The difference is your estimated gross margin, by project and by worker.

Each entry carries two rates.

The bill rate sets what the customer is billed. The cost rate sets what the work costs you. What's left is the estimated gross margin.

Rates belong to each worker's project assignment, so the same person can bill at different rates on different projects.

Estimates from approved hours at their preserved rates. Kaalam doesn't collect payments or run payroll.

Non-billable doesn't mean free.

Internal work bills nothing, but someone was still paid to do it. Include it and the margin shows what your team's time really cost.

These are estimates,
and that's deliberate.

Every figure here is calculated from recorded hours and rates. Kaalam doesn't collect payments, run payroll, or connect to your accounting software, so treat the margin as a guide, not your books.
