Company Info

Intervals is a product of Pelago, a privately held software development company based in Santa Barbara, CA, USA. It was founded in 2000 by John Reeve, Senior Developer and Designer; and Michael Payne, Chief Architect. Pelago is derived from the word archipelago. Back when it was a web design and development agency, it tried several time tracking and task management methodologies and applications. Unable to find a right fit, they decided to build their own in between client projects. The resulting software contains a perfect blend of time tracking, task management, and reporting features. Initially built for web designers and developers, it is now used also by consultants, creative agencies, IT shops, marketing agencies, PR companies, and other small businesses in over 100 countries and counting.
