Employee monitoring with a conversational AI agent: meet Desky
Ask Desky a question in plain language, or give it a check to run every week. It reads across biometric attendance, computer activity, customer calls, meetings and field location, compares them with benchmarks and sends you the answer before your meeting. One AI agent for your whole team: office, remote and field.
Desky reads every source of work data
ZKTeco, eSSL, Suprema
Apps, websites, idle, focus
Customer calls counted as work
GPS punch-in, iOS and Android
How your team compares
How Desky works
Type a question, or start from suggested checks for CEO, HR and team leads.
Combines attendance, activity and productivity in several steps, and compares with industry benchmarks.
Scheduled checks and saved scorecards run on their own and reach you before meetings.
It won't rate or recommend action on a person from activity data alone.
What does employee monitoring software track?
DeskTrack brings attendance, work time and activity into one timeline. Turn each part on or off per team.
Attendance
Login, logout and breaks, reconciled with ZKTeco, eSSL and Suprema biometric punches.
Work hours
Active time recorded automatically. No timers to start, no timesheets to chase.
Apps and websites
Time in each app and site, marked productive or not for each role.
Idle time and focus
Idle gaps and uninterrupted focus sessions, so you see real working time.
Screenshots
Optional, at intervals you set (5 minutes minimum). Multi-monitor. Kept one month.
Productivity
Productive time against scheduled office hours, by person, team and company.
Field staff location
GPS punch-in and location from the iOS and Android apps.
File and data safety
Window titles and file names, with DLP alerts. File contents are never read.
One tool for office, remote and field teams
In the office
Match biometric punches with computer login. See late starts, early exits and desk time in one report.
Remote and work from home
The desktop app records active time, apps and idle gaps wherever people log in, across time zones.
In the field
Sales and service staff punch in from the phone app with GPS location. No desktop needed.
How DeskTrack measures productive work, not just hours
Being logged in is not the same as working. DeskTrack counts productive time: role-defined apps, customer calls, meetings and field time. Then it compares that with scheduled office hours.
Example: a developer with 9 scheduled hours has 7 h 12 m of productive time → 80%. Above 100% means work beyond office hours.
Employee monitoring your team can trust
Monitoring works when people know about it. DeskTrack is visible by default and shows every employee their own data.
What DeskTrack does
- Runs visibly by default; employees know it is on
- Lets employees see their own time, activity and productivity
- Lets you choose teams, screenshot interval and who can view
- Records file names and window titles, never contents
- Keeps screenshots for one month; only admins can download
What DeskTrack never does
- Record video or stream screens live
- Turn on webcams or microphones
- Read text on screen or open files
- Score or judge a person from activity data alone

"The ROI was visible in week one. We recovered 11 hours of productive time per employee in the first month. At our team size, that's the equivalent of hiring two full-time people — without the cost."
