Timemy vs ExpiryEdge: Contracts or Deadlines?

We make Timemy, so treat this as what it is: a comparison written by one of the two parties. We have tried to keep it accurate rather than flattering, and there is a section below on when ExpiryEdge is the better answer, because for a good number of businesses it genuinely is.

All figures were checked against ExpiryEdge's own pricing page on 10 November 2026. They may have changed since — check before deciding.

The short answer

ExpiryEdge tracks dates on anything. Contracts, licences, permits, insurance policies, staff certifications, visas, domain renewals, equipment maintenance. Anything with an expiry and a consequence.

Timemy tracks contracts specifically. Not just when they end, but what they cost, who the supplier is, what you are committed to and when you can leave.

That one difference drives almost everything else. If your problem is "we have forty kinds of thing that expire and nobody owns any of them," breadth wins. If it is "we have ninety supplier contracts and nobody can tell me what we spend or what auto-renews next quarter," depth wins.

Neither answer is clever. It is mostly a question of which sentence describes your week.

Where they overlap

Both do the core job properly, and the core job is narrower than people expect: record the date, work out the real deadline, tell a named person early enough to act.

Both calculate the notice deadline rather than just the end date — the single most important feature in this category, and one a surprising number of tools skip. Both send staged reminders. Both assign an owner. Both keep a shared record rather than a reminder in one person's calendar.

If that is all you need, either will do it, and you should pick on price and on whether the interface annoys you.

Where they differ

	Timemy	ExpiryEdge
Built around	Contracts and suppliers	Any record with an expiry date
Tracks contract value & spend	Yes	Not its focus
Supplier records	Yes	Contacts, not supplier profiles
Spend & risk reporting	Yes	Activity log and exports
Procurement workflow & approvals	Yes, on higher tiers	No
AI extraction from documents	Yes, all plans	Yes, all plans
E-signature	No	Yes, included
Reminder channels	Email, Slack; SMS add-on	Email, SMS, WhatsApp, Slack, Teams
Document collection from third parties	No	Yes, via link, no account needed
SOP / workflow checklists	No	Yes
Non-contract records	No	Yes — licences, certs, permits
Free tier	Yes	No, 14-day trial

Two things in that table are worth saying out loud because they cut against us.

ExpiryEdge includes e-signature and document collection; we do not. If you need renewed certificates chased out of contractors and signed paperwork back, that is a real workflow we do not cover, and bolting a separate signing tool onto us costs money and friction.

Their reminder channels are broader. WhatsApp and Teams matter more than they sound if your people do not live in email. Our SMS is an add-on rather than included credits.

Pricing

Timemy		ExpiryEdge
Free	$0 — 10 contracts, 1 seat	—	No free tier
Starter	$29/mo — 50 contracts, 3 seats	Personal	$24/mo — 50 expiries, 1 user
Growth	$59/mo — 150 contracts, 5 seats	Pro	$41/mo — 250 expiries, 5 users
Scale	$99/mo — unlimited, 20 seats	Business	$83/mo — 750 expiries, 10 users
		Power	$166/mo — 2,500 expiries, 50 users

The comparison is less tidy than it looks, because the units differ. One ExpiryEdge "expiry" is one dated item, and a single contract may produce several. One Timemy contract is one contract, with its dates attached.

Roughly: we are cheaper at the bottom and at the top, they are better value in the middle. A sole trader tracking ten contracts pays us nothing and pays them $24. A business with 250 records and five users pays them $41 and would pay us $59. A business with 400 contracts pays us $99 for unlimited and pays them $83 for 750 — close enough that it comes down to features, not price.

If you have many users and relatively few records, their seat allowances are more generous. If you have many contracts and few users, ours are.

Choose ExpiryEdge if

• The things you track are not mostly contracts. Certifications, permits, insurance and licences are their home ground and we do not handle them at all.
• You need documents chased out of third parties, or signatures back, without buying another tool.
• Renewal triggers a process — several steps, several owners — rather than a decision. Their SOP checklists are built for that and we have nothing equivalent.
• Your team lives in WhatsApp or Teams rather than email.
• You are in a regulated setting where the audit trail needs to cover certifications as well as agreements.

Choose Timemy if

• Contracts are the actual problem, and the questions you cannot answer are commercial: what do we spend with this supplier, what is committed, what renews in Q2, where is the money going.
• You want contract value, spend and risk reporting rather than a date register.
• You want to start free and stay free while you find out whether it helps. Ten contracts, no card.
• Procurement matters — approvals, multi-stage sign-off, an audit trail on who agreed to what.
• Your renewals are a negotiation rather than a form. Knowing the notice deadline is the start; knowing what you pay and what the alternatives cost is what changes the outcome.

The honest summary

These are not really the same product, which is why "which is better" has no answer.

ExpiryEdge is a deadline engine with impressive reach — it will track anything with a date and chase the paperwork afterwards. Timemy is narrower on purpose: it only does contracts, and in exchange it knows what a contract is — a supplier, a value, a term, a notice period, a renewal you may want to stop.

If you are evaluating both, the question that settles it fastest is simple. Are the things you keep missing contracts, or are contracts just one of the things you keep missing?

If you want the wider field, we compare eight tools including both of these in our roundup of contract renewal software — and the thinking behind why the notice deadline matters more than the end date is in contract end date vs notice period.

---

The short version: ExpiryEdge tracks dates on anything and chases the paperwork; Timemy tracks contracts and what they cost you. Both calculate the notice deadline properly, which is the part that matters. Pick on whether your problem is breadth of deadline types or depth on contracts — and if it is breadth, they are the better tool.
