## About Timely with LuumenAI

Connect Timely and the agent can read your account the way you would: timesheets, projects, clients, labels, teams, user capacities, permissions, and the activity audit trail. Ask what a person logged last week or which projects carry unbilled hours, and you get an answer. Changes like locking a closed month or renaming a billing label are previewed first, then applied on your approval.
