What changed at Harvest in 2026
Harvest’s published 2026 pricing moved from flat per-seat to a per-seat base plus usage-based fees on projects, clients, invoices and tasks (Teams at $11/seat/mo on monthly billing, $9 billed annually; Enterprise from $14). Third-party analyses report renewal increases ranging from modest to many-fold on legacy accounts. Sources: Harvest pricing, Productive, TrackingTime.
Winnows’ answer is structural, not promotional: flat per-seat, monthly, no usage fees ever — it is a product constraint, not a marketing choice.
What would your team cost?
Winnows
$135/mo
Flat. No usage fees, ever. Archived members free.
Harvest Teams (published, monthly plan)
$165/mo + usage
$11/seat on a monthly plan like ours ($9/seat if billed annually), plus usage-based fees on projects, clients, invoices and tasks — we can’t know yours, so we won’t invent them.
The honest comparison
Winnows deliberately does less. If you need what’s on the right, Harvest remains the better tool for you.

- ✓ Clients → projects → tasks (Harvest-shaped)
- ✓ Member × project bill rates, effective-dated

- ✓ Invoice-ready export for QuickBooks/Xero

Winnows does not have
- — Invoice generation (we export; your accounting tool invoices)
- — Estimates, expenses, payments, retainers
- — Native mobile apps (responsive web + PWA)
- — A browser-extension timer (coming, not promised with a date)
- — SSO/SAML, integrations marketplace
Why not Toggl or Clockify?
They are excellent stopwatches. Winnows is the Harvest-shaped operating layer: the client → project → task model your books already mirror, member×project rates with effective dates, a full-history importer, and reports whose dollars reconcile to the cent against your old Harvest numbers — proven at import time, on your own data.
Leave whenever you like
Month-to-month. Full-fidelity CSV export and a read-only API at all times, and 90 days of export access after you cancel. Your data is yours; holding it hostage is the complaint that made this product exist.
