Screenshot time tracking with AI

Time tracking with screenshots—reviewed by AI.

See what was on screen during the hours you paid for.

Corcava takes screenshots while your team tracks time. Ask AI to find captures showing social media or video sites, repeated screens, unrelated visible activity—or anything else you want checked. Every finding links back to the screenshots and timestamps behind it.

  • Regular work screenshots
  • Natural-language AI checks
  • Evidence behind every finding
From tracked time to a short, evidence-backed review.

A running timer is not proof of work.

A timer can keep running while someone watches YouTube, answers personal messages, or leaves the same work window untouched. An activity percentage still does not tell you what was actually on screen.

Screenshots show what was visibly on screen at each captured moment. Corcava connects those captures to the person and tracked session, plus the selected project or task where supported. AI reviews the visual record and brings questionable intervals to your attention.

The timer tells you how long it ran. The screenshots show what it recorded. AI helps you find the exceptions.

The full work record stays visible; questionable intervals stand out.

They track time. Corcava captures the screen. AI checks the work.

1. Track

Start the timer on the right work.

The employee or contractor selects a project or task and starts the Corcava desktop timer. Every recorded interval remains tied to the work it was meant to support.

Time stays tied to a person, project, and task.

2. Capture

Build a visual record of the session.

While screenshot tracking is enabled, Corcava captures the screen at configured intervals and places each image on the tracked-time timeline.

Screenshots are captured during the tracked session.

3. Review

Tell AI what you want checked.

Select a person and date range, ask a plain-English question, and receive a focused answer with relevant captures, timestamps, explanations, and confidence information where available.

AI checks the visual record and returns evidence, not just a score.

Ask the questions you actually care about.

There is no useful universal definition of “productive.” Social media may be legitimate for a marketer and off-task for a developer. Describe the work or behavior you want checked. Corcava reviews the visible evidence against your question.

Ask a broad question about the day or investigate one specific concern.

Find screenshots showing YouTube, social media, games, or personal messaging.Show long runs of identical or nearly identical screens.Which applications and websites were visible today?Summarize what this person appeared to work on.Flag screenshots that do not look related to the selected project.Show the evidence behind each questionable interval.
Ask a project-specific question instead of scrolling through every screenshot.
Every flag points back to the screenshot and tracked time it came from.

You should not have to inspect hundreds of screenshots.

A screenshot gallery can replace one uncertainty with hundreds of images. Corcava answers the manager’s question across the selected captures, finds likely exceptions and repeated patterns, and points back to the visual evidence.

Review the exceptions

Start with the intervals AI believes deserve attention instead of scrolling through the entire workday.

See why it was flagged

Each finding identifies the visible pattern, relevant time, and supporting capture so you can inspect the original evidence.

Make the final decision

AI can misunderstand legitimate work. Open the source screenshots, consider the role and assignment, and decide whether the interval needs follow-up.

AI flags. You decide.

Set the rule once. Review the exceptions.

Give each team member a standing review instruction. Corcava checks the previous day’s screenshots and sends administrators a focused report. If the day looks normal, move on. If something needs attention, open the timestamps and supporting captures.

Save the checks that matter for this person or assignment.
The daily report shows what was reviewed and which intervals need attention.

Use stricter tracking where it matters.

Not every type of work needs the same record. Choose the tracking method that fits the person and assignment.

Screenshots + AI review

Record tracked time with regular screenshots, then analyze the captures for off-task activity and other visible patterns.

Use periodic screenshots where hours need evidence.

Timer without screenshots

Record time against projects and tasks without capturing the screen.

Track time without screenshots when capture is unnecessary.

Manual time

Allow permission-based entries for meetings, offline work, and legitimate exceptions to desktop tracking.

Allow manual entries for meetings, offline work, and exceptions.

Require screenshot tracking for the work that needs evidence. Use timer-only or manual time elsewhere.

The evidence stays connected to the work.

Screenshot tracking is not a separate monitoring silo. The recorded time remains connected to the person and the work selected in Corcava. From there, use reporting, cost, billing, or client workflows that the tracked-time record supports.

  • People and roles
  • Projects and tasks
  • Cost and profitability
  • Reports and invoices
The evidence remains connected to the work and the records built from it.

Pricing clarity

Frequently asked questions

How does time tracking with screenshots work?

When screenshot capture is enabled, the Corcava desktop timer records work time and takes screen captures during the tracked session. The captures remain connected to the person and time period so managers can review them in context.

What can the AI find in screenshots?

You can ask Corcava to look for visible applications and sites, unrelated activity, entertainment, personal messaging, repeated screens, or patterns specific to the assigned work. The answer points back to the captures that support it.

Does AI decide whether an employee was working?

No. AI identifies screenshots and intervals that may deserve attention. A manager opens the evidence, considers the role and assignment, and makes the final decision.

Can we track time without screenshots?

Yes. Corcava also supports timer-only tracking and permission-based manual time for work that does not require screen captures.

How often does Corcava take screenshots?

Screenshot intervals are configurable per team member in Corcava. Managers set the capture frequency for each person who has screenshot tracking enabled.

How long does AI screenshot analysis take?

Analysis time depends on the number of screenshots selected. Small reviews complete faster; a large workday or multi-day batch can take several minutes.

Is AI screenshot analysis included in the subscription?

Screenshot capture is included in the $9/seat/month plan. AI screenshot analysis uses separately purchased tokens (1 token = 100 screenshots analyzed). Purchase tokens from the Billing page in the app; your balance is shown before each analysis starts.

Which operating systems support screenshot tracking?

Screenshot tracking is available on the Corcava desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
