The Intervals API is due out before the end of the year. Once the API is launched, our customers will be able to hook into Basecamp and any other application of their choosing, freeing them up from the confines of a web-based project management app.

Here is some more reading on the API development:

I’ve been a rabid Basecamp user for 1.5 years. When I merged my small company with a larger one I brought Basecamp with me and we soon found out that BC is not a proper project management program. Although time tracking in BC makes sense from the production side of things it is totally unworkable from the admin/book keeping side.

The thing I value most about Basecamp is it’s collaboration. We invite clients into our BC projects and many of them love it. It’s a common workspace. Add to the fact that clients can add to the collaborative conversations by simply replying to BC emails is so effective. In other words it works with clients because it requires no effort on their part.

As far as I can see this kind of extended collaboration is not there in Intervals. Or at least not in a fluid, easy way as it is in BC. To me communication is just as important as tracking hours, tasks, milestones and budgets.

Perhaps it would benefit Intervals to look at hook into Basecamp via their API?

Just a thought.
