Urios time tracking integration: options and prices

Urios time tracking integration starts with manual entries and a stopwatch for each dossier. Outlook and VoIP can trigger timing, while the Urios app supports mobile entry. Automatic starts depend on specific workflows, so firms should assess coverage across the working day separately from transferring entries into Urios.

Urios time tracking integration builds on dossier entries

Urios records time against a dossier through an entry form, its stopwatch or its Web App, according to its time-writing manual. The Dutch terms are tijdschrijven for time writing and tijdregels for time entries. The lawyer selects the dossier and employee, supplies the description and duration, then saves the entry.

Descriptions can use the firm's own abbreviations. The stopwatch also accepts a dossier and description, and its Save button books the elapsed time. These records feed invoicing, or declareren, within Urios software.

Sixminute adds automatic time capture across every computer application, with client and matter matching and AI-written narratives. It records work outside Urios’s configured stopwatch triggers without connecting each application.

Urios software time tracking supports minutes, five- or six-minute units and decimal hours. A factor changes the rate applied to an entry. The manual limits the separate time-writing-group field to insolvency dossiers, so firms should check which fields their own work requires.

Outlook, VoIP and the app support specific workflows

Urios can start timing linked work automatically, but the lawyer still saves the resulting entry. Its automatic-start settings cover emails composed from Urios, documents generated from Urios, files opened through a dossier's Documents tab and linked calls.

The Outlook koppeling saves emails and attachments into dossier folders. Its calendar link synchronises personal calendars with Microsoft 365. In the agenda workflow, the lawyer enters the appointment’s duration and can book the time to its dossier.

The VoIP koppeling can start the stopwatch for outgoing calls. For incoming calls, its pop-up identifies the caller and associated dossiers, and lets the lawyer start timing and add notes.

Urios app time tracking means entering time through the browser-based Web App. It requires a separate licence and the Urios Cloud Database. It provides mobile access to time writing; the documented workflow still depends on the lawyer entering the work.

The TIQ transfer needs a current support check

Urios documents a two-way TIQ Time transfer in its 2021 release notes. New Urios dossiers created corresponding dossiers in TIQ Time, and approved TIQ entries appeared in Urios. The notes specified a TIQ Time subscription.

The current Urios koppelingen overview no longer lists TIQ Time. Before buying, the firm should obtain written confirmation of current support, setup requirements and fees. For a proposed Urios API time-entry import, the firm should request supported endpoints, required fields and tier eligibility from Urios before commissioning development. The overview provides no general time-entry import specification.

TIQ’s current solution page describes passive capture, client and matter matching and AI-written narratives. It lists application integrations including Word, PDF readers and browsers, alongside practice-management and telephony connections. For this integration-based approach, the firm should require a coverage list for its applications and a demonstration of the resulting entries. The page supplies no current Urios setup instructions.

Standaard and Plus have different module costs

Urios lists Standaard at €36.25 and Plus at €57 per user per month in its November 2026 pricing, billed annually. Prices exclude VAT under Urios's terms. Its per gebruiker per maand definition includes a time writer or a concurrently logged-in support user.

Standaard includes time writing and invoicing. Plus adds document management, accounting links, reports, user rights and agenda functions. Plus modules can also be purchased separately with Standaard, according to the same package comparison.

The required module depends on the link:

• Outlook email filing requires Documentenbeheer; calendar synchronisation requires Agenda & Termijnen. Both are included in Plus and available separately with Standaard.
• VoIP works with either tier without an additional Urios module, although provider costs may apply.
• The Web App adds €2 per time writer monthly; the Cloud Database adds €7.75 per firm monthly, as listed in November 2026.

A firm comparing Dutch law firm software prices should include these modules in its quote.

Automatic starts leave work outside their triggers

Urios’s documented automatic starts cover work launched through specific Urios commands. Research begun independently in a court portal falls outside those triggers. The firm should test whether its additional capture tool records that work and produces a usable entry.

The cost of relying on memory has been measured. In Primary Research Group's 2014 survey of lawyers at US firms with at least 25 lawyers, 57.7% had reduced recorded time because they could not remember the duration. The reported average reduction was 5.9 hours in the past month.

For firms assessing unrecorded billable hours, that survey provides evidence about memory-based timekeeping, with no Urios-specific loss estimate. A trial should compare recorded activity with completed work and check the matter assignment and narrative alongside the duration.

How Sixminute records the whole working day

Sixminute records work across every computer application automatically, with no timers to start or application integrations to configure. Its Computer Event Reconstruction turns computer events into a record of the lawyer’s working day. This passive capture covers court portals and specialist tools alongside the practice-management system, without maintaining a list of connected applications.

Sixminute also records phone calls through its iOS and Android app and meetings through Outlook and Google Calendar. It provides client and matter matching and AI-written narratives: one entry per task, with its duration and a client-ready narrative. Entries stay private to the lawyer until released into the firm’s existing system. Review and release take about 6 minutes a day.

For professional secrecy, Sixminute takes no screenshots, logs no keystrokes and filters work on the device. Data is encrypted with the firm’s own key and hosted in the EU. It runs on Windows and macOS and takes about 5 minutes to set up.

In Sixminute's tests, lawyers billed 9 to 15% more hours for the same work. Its complete application coverage makes it the strongest choice for firms seeking automatic capture without configuring individual application links.

Test coverage and review before committing

The firm should test a normal working day and inspect the resulting entries before choosing a capture tool. Begin with the Urios stopwatch settings, then follow the work through to a saved entry.

1. List the firm's applications and check which work each configured link records. Include a document opened outside Urios and a telephone call.
2. Confirm the required Urios modules and obtain written confirmation of any proposed external time-entry transfer.
3. Inspect the proposed client, matter, duration and narrative. Measure how much editing remains before release.
4. Review client confidentiality: collection method, hosting, encryption and who can see unreleased activity.
5. Compare the recovered work with the lawyer's daily review effort. Record the review time and corrections over the trial, then use those results in the buying decision.
