Billing items, companies counts and companies, worked for you
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Autotask PSA billing items, does the 10-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the billing item. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Autotask PSA afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing changed until you say so.
What it can do is exactly what Autotask PSA exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 10 operations, 10 reads and no writes. In practice that means it can list time entries, list tickets and list ticket notes, and work across the billing items, companies counts and companies.
The Autotask PSA API stops at Autotask PSA. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Which Autotask PSA billing items does a companion see?
All 10 operations read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can list time entries, list tickets and list ticket notes, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Autotask PSA's documentation.
The billing items are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the companies counts. A companion can hold all 10 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Autotask PSA admin becomes a queue you review.

Nothing writes back. So what moves the billing items?
Through the screens you already use.
Autotask PSA exposes no write operation to a connected account, so a companion drives Autotask PSA in the session you are already signed into instead, filling the same forms you would to move a billing item, and anything consequential stops for an approval card before it happens.
That is the ordinary case rather than the exception. Most of what a billing item in Autotask PSA touches has no API pointed at it, and a companion is useful precisely because it does not need one.
Can it list time entries every morning by itself?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Autotask PSA billing items pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The operations playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the operations, the Autotask PSA billing items sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
