Time and Activity Tracking

Team activity tracking that writes your morning brief.

WorkWitness captures what your Windows team actually builds — app focus, active sessions, work patterns — and turns it into a plain-English AI brief per teammate delivered to your WhatsApp and email at 7 am IST, every morning.

The problem

Activity data without context is noise, not intelligence.

Most team tracking tools hand you a number — 74% active — and leave you to figure out what it means. A developer reading documentation looks idle. A designer in a flow state looks productive. The number tells you neither. What you actually need is a sentence.

  • Know who is in a deep focus stretch and who is context-switching into paralysis.
  • Spot the teammate who appears busy but hasn't moved a deliverable in two days.
  • Recognise the person quietly carrying the team past their working hours.
  • Balance workloads before someone burns out or misses a client deadline.

How it works

Windows activity in. A written brief out.

Four steps. Nothing magic, nothing hidden.

01

Install the Windows agent in minutes

Download the WorkWitness installer and run it on each machine. No IT involvement needed. Under 5 minutes per device. The agent runs completely silently — employees see no notification, no pop-up, and no process in Task Manager unless you choose to make it visible. That choice is yours alone.

02

App focus and session data captured in the background

While the machine is in use, WorkWitness logs which application has focus and for how long. No keystrokes. No file contents. Screenshots are off by default and can be enabled per employee from the owner dashboard at any time.

03

AI distils the day into one paragraph per teammate

Each night, WorkWitness runs pattern detection over the event stream. Sensitive strings — file paths, client names — are stripped before Claude processes anything. The model writes a plain-English paragraph per person: what they focused on, where they were stuck, whether they carried the day.

04

Brief delivered at 7 am IST — WhatsApp and email

One paragraph per teammate lands in your WhatsApp and email before standup. No portal login required. No new dashboard habit to build. The information finds you — not the other way around.

Who uses WorkWitness

Built for Indian founders where team clarity matters.

Founders running distributed Windows teams

You trusted the team. Now there are 15 people in three cities and you have lost the signal. WorkWitness gives it back — without surveillance optics or micromanagement conversations.

Ops leads managing remote staff

One brief per morning replaces the check-in calls that consume an ops lead's afternoon. Surface who is stuck, who is overloaded, who needs a conversation — before it becomes a problem.

Agency owners billing by output

Know whether the team working your client's project is actually focused on it. Not to micromanage — to staff correctly and catch capacity problems before they become missed deadlines.

BPO and outsourced service teams

India's BPO industry runs on accountability. WorkWitness gives team leads a morning brief on who delivered and who needs support — without the overhead of legacy attendance systems.

Key features

What WorkWitness gives you each morning.

ACTIVITY INTELLIGENCE

App focus tracking — not keystroke counts

Hubstaff and its peers give you a percentage: 74% active. WorkWitness gives you a sentence: Priya held a 3h 40m focus stretch in Excel this morning with no context switches after 11 AM. One is a number that tells you nothing. The other is information you can act on before the day starts.

App name, window title, and focus duration — nothing more invasive than that

AI MORNING BRIEF

One paragraph per teammate, every morning at 7 am IST

Most founders don't have 20 minutes before standup to log into three dashboards. WorkWitness gives you 90 seconds of reading. One paragraph per person: what they focused on, whether focus was sustained, any signal worth your attention. It arrives in WhatsApp — the app you're already checking — so there's no new habit to build.

Same brief in email and WhatsApp — read wherever you already are at 7 am

OWNER CONTROLS

Silent, stealth, or visible — your call, per employee.

The owner decides exactly what each employee sees. Silent mode: the agent runs but does not appear in Task Manager. Stealth mode: fully invisible, no trace on the machine. Visible mode: agent named in Task Manager for transparent teams. Screenshots can be enabled or disabled per employee at any time from the owner dashboard. Employees never see these settings.

Three monitoring modes per employee — changed any time from the owner dashboard only

DELIVERY

WhatsApp and email — the apps you already check

The brief does not require a portal visit to be useful. It arrives in email and WhatsApp every morning at 7 am IST — before standup, before the first message from the team. No new app for employees to install. No new habit for the founder to build.

Works on any phone. No employee app install. Delivery confirmed by read receipt.

Built on trust

Activity tracking your team can live with.

WorkWitness is designed for founders who want clarity, not founders who want control. These three principles are non-negotiable.

01

You control what employees see

The agent can run silent (invisible but running), stealth (zero trace on the machine), or visible (named in Task Manager). The default is silent. Only the owner account can see or change this setting — employees never know which mode is active.

02

Masked before AI

Client names, file paths, and sensitive strings are stripped before the event stream reaches Claude. The model sees patterns — app names, focus durations, switch rates — not your client's deal terms or your employee's personal file names.

03

DPDP-aligned, DPA signed

Designed to align with India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Every workspace signs a Data Processing Agreement naming exactly what we hold, where it lives, and for how long. Not yet SOC 2 — that audit is on the 2026 roadmap.

The honest list

What is captured. What is not. In plain English.

If something is not on this table, we do not collect it.
