Built on one bet: the screen is the universal API.
Every other productivity tracker asks you to wire up integrations — Slack, Notion, your calendar. DeskTrack skips that entirely.
Why DeskTrack exists
Time trackers either make you manually log everything, or they hook into a handful of apps and miss everything else — your terminal, your design tool, that internal dashboard with no API. Meanwhile, full-session recorders capture everything continuously, which is powerful but heavyweight and genuinely privacy-scary.
DeskTrack sits in between. It quietly reads what's on screen, understands what you're doing in plain language, and turns that into a timeline, a focus score, and an honest daily digest — without asking you to connect a single account.
What it actually does
- Periodically captures your screen and detects when it meaningfully changes.
- Analyzes what's on screen to understand the activity — not just the app name.
- Builds a timeline, a focus score, and a daily digest from that understanding.
- Lets you exclude apps or windows by name, pause anytime, and delete everything with one click.
Who's behind it
DeskTrack is an independent, self-funded project — not a company with a sales team or a monitoring-software agenda. It's built for people who want to understand their own day, not for employers watching their team. Questions or feedback are always welcome at founder@desktrack.io.
