Free UX Designer Timesheet Template
UX design encompasses research, information architecture, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing, each with its own time investment that clients need to understand. A timesheet lets a UX designer document how hours flow across the design process and demonstrates the rigour behind decisions that might otherwise appear simple. Clear records also make scope conversations easier when stakeholders request additional research rounds or design iterations.

Frequently asked questions
How do I bill for usability testing sessions?
Bill for participant recruitment, session facilitation, observation, note-taking, and synthesis separately if they are significant time blocks. A single entry of 'usability testing' for a full day obscures the scope of work involved. Clients who understand UX process appreciate seeing research broken into its component parts.
Should I charge for time spent writing UX copy and microcopy?
If writing interface copy is within your scope, yes. Record it as a distinct activity. If a dedicated copywriter is handling the copy and you are only reviewing it for tone and usability, log that review time separately.
My client wants changes after a prototype has been approved. How do I handle this on my timesheet?
Log the post-approval changes as a separate entry with a note indicating they came after sign-off. This creates a clear record of the change request and supports an additional fee conversation. Describe the change specifically rather than simply writing 'revisions'.
