Clinical Hour Tracker Comparison for Oregon & Washington: Track Your Hours, ClearPath & License Journey Alternatives

Last updated September 29, 2026

There are several clinical hour trackers on the market, and a few of them are genuinely good. Most of the energy is in California, which now has three dedicated trackers competing on price and polish. The problem for Oregon and Washington associates is narrower than "which app is best" — it is "which app actually knows my board's rules." This is an honest look at the main options: what each does well, what it costs, and where it falls short for OR and WA.

The options at a glance

Track Your Hours — the closest feature match

Track Your Hours is the tool most like the dream product: it applies state board rules automatically, tracks progress by category, and generates the actual board-required forms. If you are in California, New York, or Texas, it is worth a serious look at $89.95/yr. But it does not support Oregon or Washington, so an OR or WA associate cannot use it for board-native tracking — which is precisely the gap Almost Licensed exists to fill.

License Trail — multi-state by design, no board-form fill advertised

License Trail is a multi-state tracker at $9.99/mo or $89/yr — about $223 over a typical 2.5-year track — with a $29 Student Lifetime plan capped at 1,500 hours. That cap sits below every Oregon and Washington full-track requirement, so an associate who starts on the student plan has to upgrade to finish. The product itself is more substantial than "generic" suggests: spreadsheet import, continuous requirements-checking, one-click "board-ready" exports, and a free supervisor-side review dashboard. It also publishes genuinely detailed Oregon and Washington requirement guides, one per credential: the Oregon LCSW page cites OAR chapter 877 and ORS 675.510 and names CSWA throughout, and the Washington sibling cites WAC 246-809 and names LSWAIC (checked August 2026). Credit where it is due — those are real pages, not stubs, and they walk the board's paperwork too: Oregon's six-month supervisor evaluations "on Board-provided forms," Washington's "DOH verification forms." What we found no evidence of, on any page outside their login, is the form itself — nothing they advertise generates your board's actual form. Their export is a board-ready PDF of their own, not the BLSW or OBLPCT supervision report and not WA DOH 670-011, 670-027, or 670-005, and no reporting-window automation is advertised anywhere we can read. For an OR or WA associate the board's own form is the last mile, and nothing they advertise covers it — at three times Almost Licensed's price.

License Journey — the newest Washington toe-hold

License Journey is a mobile-first tracker that positions itself as a modern, cheaper alternative to Track Your Hours at $6.99/mo, $74.99/yr, or $199.99 lifetime. It is mostly a California story (LCSW, LMFT, LPCC), but it is the first dedicated competitor with any Washington coverage — LICSW and the associate-level LASW. That is worth knowing if you are a Washington social worker. But the Washington coverage stops at social work: there is no LMHCA or LMFTA support, and no Oregon at all. If you are a WA counseling or MFT associate, or anyone in Oregon, it does not track your board.

ClearPath Hours: fifty states at $25 a year

ClearPath Hours is a $25/yr tracker built by an LCSW, with a free tier, 12 months free for students, and free supervisor accounts. As of September 2026 it advertises all 50 states and the District of Columbia, and it has live per-credential pages for Oregon (LCSW, LMFT, LPCC), Washington (LCSW, LMFT, LMHC) and Florida. If price is your first question, it is the cheaper option and it belongs on your list.

Two things are worth checking before you decide. Their own FAQ scopes the board forms they have built to California, Texas, New York, Florida and Illinois, so Oregon and Washington are not on that list even though their Oregon and Washington pages carry a templated sentence saying ClearPath fills the actual board form. And nothing they advertise mentions six-month reporting windows or birth-month anchoring, which is the part of Oregon social work reporting that catches people out. We have not seen inside their product, so this is a comparison of what each of us publishes, not a claim about what their engine computes.

Time2Track — the academic standard

Time2Track is the biggest name in the space, and for good reason: it is polished, has a mobile app, and is the default for many graduate programs tracking practicum and internship hours at $5.99 a month billed annually (about $72 a year), or $9.99 a month billed monthly. It is configurable but not Oregon- or Washington-specific: nothing on their pricing or features pages names a state licensing board or a board form (checked September 2026), so no BLSW reporting window, no OBLPCT zero-credit flag and no Oregon or Washington board form is advertised anywhere we can read. It is built for academic training hours, not post-graduate board licensure in these two states.

SupervisionTracker — one-time pricing option

SupervisionTracker is a newer entrant offering supervision hour tracking, AI consultations, and licensure reports at $69/yr or $129 lifetime. The lifetime option is appealing if you prefer to pay once. Their homepage advertises tracking for LPCs, LMFTs and LCSWs, supervisor management and reports it says meet state licensing board requirements, with no state list and no state-specific rule advertised on it (re-read September 2026), so plan on tracking the Oregon and Washington board mechanics yourself: the reporting cadence, the proportional supervision rule and the credentialed-supervisor floors.

Etsy and Excel spreadsheets — cheap but static

A well-built spreadsheet ($10–30 one-time) can be Oregon- or Washington-aware and is the cheapest option by far. The catch is that it is cumulative-only and static: it will not compute your reporting windows, warn you when a month is at risk of the OBLPCT zero-credit penalty, or produce a board PDF. For many associates the manual upkeep — and the risk of a missed deadline or a miscounted month — outweighs the small savings.

Where Almost Licensed fits

Almost Licensed is $29 a year, with a free trial, which is four dollars above ClearPath and well below everything else on this list. Here is what you get for it:

• BLSW six-month reporting windows anchored on your birth month, and OBLPCT annual reporting anchored on your registration date.
• The OBLPCT proportional supervision rule, with a warning when a month is at risk of the zero-credit penalty (OAR 833-050-0081).
• The WA LMFT credentialed-supervisor floor (100 of 200 hours) tracked per placement.
• Board-native terminology instead of generic clinical labels.
• Pre-filled board PDFs — the Oregon BLSW and OBLPCT reports, and the WA DOH 670-027 and 670-005 verification forms.

If that is the list you have been looking for, start tracking your Oregon or Washington hours: free for 30 days, no credit card.

Notice where the list actually divides. Coverage is no longer the question: ClearPath markets Oregon, Washington and Florida, License Trail works anywhere, and California associates can also choose Track Your Hours or License Journey. The question is the last mile. No competitor's own FAQ claims a built Oregon or Washington board form: ClearPath's Oregon and Washington pages carry a templated "fills the actual board form" sentence, but its homepage FAQ scopes the forms it has built to California, Texas, New York, Florida and Illinois. And nothing any of them advertises automates the six-month reporting window. If you are logging academic training hours, Time2Track is the standard. If you are an Oregon or Washington associate, a CSWA, LSWAIC, LPC or LMHCA, LMFT or LMFTA, and what you want is the board's own paperwork filled from the hours you already logged, that is what Almost Licensed does, at $29 a year.
