The question is: how do you show a client how many hours it really took to complete their project? Recently, it has become more difficult to explain to clients why the cost of a job is what it is, especially when it is not always possible to clearly prove how much time was spent on each task. Often all the focus is on the end result and it feels like we're spending too much time. How can we convincingly demonstrate to the client the real time spent to avoid dissatisfaction and misunderstandings?

Yes, I think if the project is big and time-consuming, it is important to have clear data to explain to the client what they are paying for. For example, you could divide the project into smaller tasks and show how much time was spent on each one. This will help to visualize the work process. It is important for the client to see that the work is going according to plan and that time is being spent efficiently.
I think this situation is faced by almost everyone who works with clients on projects. In order to show exactly how much time was spent on tasks, I recommend using time tracking software such as Monitask. It allows you to track time spent on specific tasks to the nearest minute. Moreover, https://www.monitask.com/en/ takes screenshots at intervals so that the client can clearly see what the employee was doing at any given moment. This can be useful to convince the client that the hours spent are real. You can also create detailed reports that show which tasks took more time and why. This approach not only allows you to visualize the work done, but also builds the client's trust, as they will be able to see that the work was done throughout the agreed time frame, and this will be documented.
