Early beta · device profiles are live
Your tech costs more than money.
TimePrice measures the time you lose setting up, troubleshooting, fixing, reconnecting, and updating the technology connected to your PC.
Free, no card required. Today you can build your device profiles — time tracking is what we're building next.
Concept preview — the timer is in development
How it works
Four steps from annoyance to evidence
- 01live now
Add your device
Register the tech connected to your PC — monitor, mouse, headset, GPU. Match it to a real product model, or keep it unmatched until one exists.
- 02in development
Start the clock when it breaks
Setup, troubleshooting, reconnecting, driver fights, updates. Press start, fix the thing, press stop. The minutes finally get counted.
- 03in development
See what each device costs you
Every device builds an honest history: how often it goes wrong, how long it takes, and how much of your life it has quietly consumed.
- 04planned
Turn it into a public score
Confirmed time from many owners aggregates into a TimePrice per product model — so the next buyer knows what their time is in for.
The unit
What counts as TimePrice?
Only the time a device takes away from you — the minutes you spend attending to it instead of using it. Time the thing works properly is not a cost.
Counts
- Troubleshooting something that stopped working
- First-time setup and configuration
- Reconnecting a device that dropped out
- Driver, firmware and update work that needs you at the keyboard
- Diagnosing failures, crashes and faults
- Maintenance: cleaning, recalibrating, replacing consumables
Doesn't count
- Normal use of a device that is working fine
- Time an update installs while you are away from the desk
- Waiting on a download, sync or scan you are not attending
- Hours the device simply sits powered on
- Ordinary gaming, working, browsing or listening
The rule is attention, not elapsed time: if you had to be there, it counts. If it ran without you, it doesn't.
The metric
A price tag for your time
Every product tells you what it costs in money. None of them tell you what it costs in hours. Imagine choosing a $500 monitor already knowing what its owners typically lose each year keeping it working.
That is the score TimePrice exists to build — and it can only be built one way.
- Not star ratings or review scores
- Not frustration remembered months later
- Not estimates, averages, or manufacturer claims
- Only real troubleshooting time, measured as it happens and confirmed by the owner who lost it
Product pages are being prepared. Until enough owners have tracked a model, its score stays exactly this honest:

Windows companion · planned
Windows does the noticing
A lightweight Windows companion is planned that would watch for the signals of a bad tech day — device disconnects, driver errors, sudden restarts — and simply ask whether it cost you time. It does not exist yet.
Notices the signals
Disconnects, driver failures, crashes, restarts — the fingerprints of troubleshooting.
Asks, never assumes
Nothing would count toward any score until you confirm it was really lost time.
Private by default
Raw hardware identifiers would stay on your machine. Unconfirmed detections would never leave it.
Be first on the clock.
TimePrice is in early beta. Build your device profiles now and they are ready the moment the troubleshooting timer arrives.
