Employee Monitoring with Screenshots and Screen Recording

Screenshots on your schedule

Every 3, 6, 15, or 30 minutes, per person. Capture pauses automatically when the person is idle, so there is never a gallery of empty desks.

Screen recording, included

Monitoring-grade video at low frame rate, compressed on the machine before upload. It feels like video and costs a fraction of it. Most tools charge extra for this or skip it.

Blur that cannot leak

Blur is a hard gate applied before upload. If a frame cannot be blurred, it is not uploaded. Company-wide blur cannot be quietly undone per person.

Every monitor, numbered

Multi-monitor setups are captured screen by screen and grouped into one moment in the viewer, with numbered tabs. Half the work never goes missing.

One mode at a time

Screenshots and recording are mutually exclusive by design, and the server enforces the mode at upload, so an outdated client can never post the wrong kind of capture.

Two permissions, not five

On macOS the app asks for Accessibility and Screen Recording, and nothing else. No input monitoring, no automation prompts, no camera, no microphone.

Reports · Screenshots & recordings

One day of captures, in order

Stills and recording clips for a person and a day, grouped by hour, with the blur that applied to each. Sara's captures here are blurred on her own machine before upload.

Reports · Activity flags

Evidence, not verdicts

Tracker stopped, automation patterns, identical captures and silence gaps, each with the captures from that stretch attached. Nothing unusual in the week means the page says exactly that.

Monitoring the team can live with.

Everyone on the desktop app sees their own screenshots and recordings, the same view their manager gets. The privacy policy lists exactly what is collected and what never is.

How a capture is taken.

Five stages between capture and report. Three of them are privacy controls applied before any data leaves the device.

You choose a mode per person, not per company. Off, screenshots every 3, 6, 15 or 30 minutes, or screen recording. A designer can be on stills while a contractor on a client audit is on recording, and somebody handling payroll can be on nothing at all.
Blur is applied on their machine, before upload. Not on our server, and not in the viewer. The frame that leaves the computer is already blurred, so an unblurred screen of your finance team's payroll file never exists on our side. If a frame cannot be blurred for any reason, it is not uploaded at all.
Every monitor is captured and kept together. A three-screen desk produces three images grouped into one moment, with numbered tabs in the viewer, so half a person's work never quietly goes missing.
Capture pauses when the person does. Once somebody passes the idle limit, capture stops until they come back, so you never get a gallery of the same empty desk forty times.
The server enforces the mode at upload. Screenshots and recording are mutually exclusive by design. An out-of-date tracker that tries to post the wrong kind of capture is refused, which means a plan that does not include recording cannot be made to record by an old client.

What it will not do.

Documented scope limitations.

The person sees everything you see. Anyone on the desktop app can open their own captures, the same ones their manager gets, and no setting removes that. Employee access to their own capture history is a fixed property of the product and is not configurable.
No continuous video. Recording is 5 frames per second at 720p in short clips, on purpose. It is monitoring-grade evidence of what was on the screen, not a film of somebody's day, and it costs a fraction of the storage a real screen recorder would.
No camera, ever. Neither tracker requests camera or microphone access on either operating system.
Captures follow the plan's retention and then go. One year on Pro, two years on Max, after which media bytes are deleted before the database rows that point at them.
Deleting a person really deletes the pictures. Their screenshots and recordings are erased down to the stored objects, not just hidden from a list.

Screenshots and recording, asked every week

Does the person know a screenshot was taken?

Yes, and they can open it. Anyone on the desktop app sees their own captures in the same viewer their manager uses. Whether they are told in advance depends on how you deploy and what you tell them, which is your decision and, in many places, your legal obligation.

How much storage does recording use?

Far less than you would expect, because it is 5 frames per second at 720p, compressed on the computer before upload rather than on our servers. It is included on Max at no extra charge, where most tools in this category either charge extra for video or do not offer it.

Can I blur sensitive screens?

Yes, per person or across the whole company. Blur is applied on the person's own machine before anything uploads, so the unblurred frame never leaves it. A company-wide blur cannot be quietly switched off for one individual.

What if someone works on two or three monitors?

Every screen is captured and the set is grouped as one moment with numbered tabs, so you are never looking at a person's empty second monitor and wondering where the work went.

Which permissions does it ask for on a Mac?

Two: Accessibility and Screen Recording. No input monitoring, no automation prompts, no camera, no microphone. On Windows it needs no special permission beyond installation.

Can I turn captures off entirely and still track time?

Yes. Capture mode Off gives you hours, activity, applications and websites with no images at all. Plenty of teams run it that way.

See the screen, not the person.
