Download the Worktivity agent
The desktop app that records hours, activity and app usage, so nobody has to fill in a timesheet from memory.
Install it once on each computer and sign in with your Worktivity account. It runs quietly in the background, keeps working when the connection drops, and stays visible in the system tray so everyone knows it is there.
No credit card required. Cancel any time.
Choose your platform
Pick the installer for the machine you are on. You will need a Worktivity account to sign in after installing.

Use the MSI package to deploy the agent across a fleet with Group Policy or your device management tool.
Three steps to a working agent
Run the installer
Double-click the file you downloaded and follow the prompts. On Windows, admin rights are needed once; on macOS, drag the app into Applications.
Sign in
Open Worktivity and sign in with the account your organization invited you with. The agent links itself to your workspace automatically.
Grant permissions
macOS asks for screen recording and accessibility access; Windows may ask for a firewall exception. Without these the agent cannot record activity.
What it records, and what it does not
Everything below is controlled by your organization's settings. Features you switch off are not collected at all.
Working time
Start and stop times, active minutes, breaks and idle periods, captured without anyone pressing a button.
Apps and websites
Which applications and sites are in use and for how long, grouped into productive, neutral and distracting categories.
Screenshots
Optional periodic screenshots at a frequency you set. Turn the feature off and none are taken.
Timelapse videos
Optional condensed video of the working day, useful for reviewing long sessions quickly.
Offline support
Data is stored locally when there is no connection and uploaded as soon as the machine is back online.
Always visible
The agent sits in the system tray and employees can see their own tracked data in the web app. No hidden mode.
Before you install
The agent is light, but it does need a few things.

|---|---|---|---|
| Windows | Windows 7, 8.1, 10, 11 | 64-bit (x64) | EXE installer for individual machines, MSI package for central deployment. |

An internet connection is needed to sync. The agent keeps recording offline and uploads once the connection returns.
