Who is Steady Stride for?
Published on 2025-01-14
Steady Stride is for people who want to know one thing and one thing only: Total Time.
- Total time invested in a project.
- Total time spent practicing Spanish this month.
- Total time dedicated to working out in 2025.
That’s it. No distractions, no unnecessary data—just a clear, simple answer to the question: How much time have I actually put in?
Steady Stride is the right tool for you if…
Your story might look something like this:
- You get excited about a new goal and want to track how much time you’re putting in.
- You try the “best” tools—Toggl, Clockify, etc.
- You use them for two weeks, but gradually start forgetting to log your time until you stop altogether.
- Frustrated, you try again… and end up repeating steps 2 and 3.
- After switching between tools, you start wondering: Am I the problem? Maybe I just don’t have the self-discipline to stick with a time tracker.
NO. Don’t believe that.
I went through the same cycle. I tried every “great” tool out there, convinced that I was the issue. But the real problem? Those tools weren’t built for people like us.
I was fed up. So I built Steady Stride—not for freelancers or productivity hackers, but for regular people who just want to track their time without all the extra baggage.
I wished there was a time tracker that…
- Let me track my time in a messy, flexible way, adjusting totals at the end of the week.
- Showed me just the total time—no clutter, no complexity.
- I actually believed I’d still be using years from now.
That’s exactly what Steady Stride is.
What makes Steady Stride different?
1. Optimized for Total Time.
Most time trackers force you to log every detail: start and end times, tags, projects… It all adds up to friction. And friction means you eventually stop using it.
Steady Stride removes all that. When logging an activity, you enter:
❌ No title
❌ No start and end time
❌ No tags, no projects
Just how much time you spent. That’s it.

2. Mindfully Feature-Less.
To make logging effortless, we cut out everything unnecessary. What’s the trade-off?
No Insights
- No average time per session.
- No “most productive time of day.”
- No correlations.
Why? Because we believe approximate time is good enough. You shouldn’t feel pressured to be perfectly accurate to get un-impactful data points—you just need a rough sense of your total time.
No Trend Analytics
- No daily or weekly breakdowns.
- No trend lines.
- Just total time per month and year.
Why? Because it allows you to log in bulk without guilt. Whether you track every day or just dump 25 hours at the end of the week, it all adds up the same.

3. Yours Forever.
Most time trackers are built for freelancers and businesses, which means they put essential features behind paywalls and monthly subscriptions.
Steady Stride is different. It’s built for people who just want to track their total time. That’s why it’s pay once, lifetime access. No subscriptions. No hidden fees.
Conclusion
If you’re tired of jumping from one time tracker to the next, always hoping the next one will finally stick…
Try Steady Stride for free—the only time tracker you’ll actually use for life.
