I think that's because time tracking is hard and annoying, that's why I made it "set and forget" instead of requiring a new habit.

I wanted a time tracker accurate enough to be useful and easy enough to not require a new habit while protecting your privacy.

Most trackers (RescueTime etc) only use activity logs and that isn't enough to be very useful. DoneThat uses LLMs to parse your screenshots, which makes it much more accurate but also requires much higher privacy standards, so let's start with those:

- Source-available desktop app (https://github.com/donethatai/donethat-electron) screenshots every few min.

- App exclusions (password managers, personal comms, etc.) are blanked before the screenshot leaves your machine.

- The rest goes to an LLM (BYO possible) for a short text description, and the raw screenshot is discarded immediately.

- That data then gets further processed on GCP (EU) for analyses, sharing, or agentic stuff.

- Sharing is opt-in and only possible at an aggregation level that balances privacy and usefulness. You can also limit to relative data.

- Data flow visualization & more privacy features: https://donethat.ai/data.

- Not fully local. If that's a hard requirement, look at Dayflow or Screenpipe (just changed their licensing). I made a list of tools in this space here: https://donethat.ai/compare.

Currently working on a proactive Clippy-like coach because it's the highest-requested feature (mostly from self-identifying ADHD folk). Surprisingly hard to make this actually useful and not just gimmicky or annoying.

Give it a try: https://donethat.ai

Right now working on framing this as an RL problem to better predict when nudging is actually successful and what kind of wording works best given the user data. Then applying the same logic to onboarding emails etc.

A tool to estimate if you should vibe an automation/app or just buy/delegate/grind instead

Behavior change research shows that putting money on the line makes it much more likely that you'll stick to your habits. It's not being used much though because most people don't want to put money on the line haha

We think part of the reason is that your money is traditionally going to the startups (eg Beeminder, Forefeit). We solve it by donating it to effective charities.

I built it as a pretty minimal PWA to get around app stores and allow browser use. Apple makes it a bit hard to install (open in safari > share > save) but I wouldn't have done it if I would've had to go through all the app stores.

So spyware in the sense of getting information without the employee knowing would be impossible and not something I’d ever want to do.

It does enable transparency on a very abstracted level: your team could see a six bullet point summary of your day if you opt in. I believe this kind of transparency can actually help more teams go remote, cut down on sync meetings, etc.

I’m currently experimenting with a feature that shows relative time spent only, not absolute - so e.g. 30% on project X, 20% on admin, etc. That could be the sweet spot on visibility vs privacy.

Tried to be super low-tech: Notion, super.so, Spotify creators, riverside.

Now thinking of building an email-based agent for behaviour change accountability. Would love any pointers to good UX for email-based AI assistants.

An AI based time tracker: reconstructs your day from whatever it sees you doing. Screenshot based but never stores them.

The same tech stack is pretty easily adaptable to openclaw tracking. If anybody would like to try, DM

Also looking into AI based security tools for monitoring security of DoneThat. Thinking of using zeropath would love to hear if people tried them / have other suggestions

https://euzoia.substack.com The concept: https://euzoia.org

Tried to do this as low tech as possible, so website is just an off the shelf notion wrapper

Currently experimenting with a proactive agent, Don, that pops up like clippy and also works over email.

With lot's of built-in data privacy safeguards https://donethat.ai/data

Also made an overview of similar tools out there https://donethat.ai/compare

Recently broke on Linux with a Wayland security update, working on a fix! Using Electron for cross-platform.
