The automatic screen tracker
that respects your privacy.
TimeTiker runs silently in the background and automatically records which apps, websites, and projects you spend time on. All data is stored locally on your device — encrypted, never shared, never uploaded without your consent. No timesheets. No manual input. Just clarity.

What drives the product
Local-first by design
Your data never leaves your device. Everything is stored locally so you stay in full control at all times.
End-to-end encryption
When syncing is enabled, all data is encrypted before it ever reaches a server. No one but you can read it.
Zero configuration
No setup, no learning curve. Install and start working — TimeTiker handles the rest silently in the background.
Clean interface
Every screen is designed to surface exactly what you need, nothing more. Clarity over clutter.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. During the Alpha phase, all features are completely free in the Standard plan. When TimeTiker reaches Beta, premium features like reports, Kanban, and team collaboration will require a paid plan (starting at 6 CHF/month). However, core features like the dashboard, focus timer, categories, and journal will remain free forever. If you join during Alpha, you will receive a lifetime 50% discount on all premium plans.
Everything is stored locally on your device by default. If you enable cloud sync, your data is end-to-end encrypted before it leaves your machine — no one, not even us, can read it.
Absolutely. TimeTiker is designed local-first: it tracks your activity, saves your data, and gives you full access to all features without any internet connection.
TimeTiker records the active application window and its title in the background. It detects which apps, websites, and documents you work on — automatically, with no manual input required.
Not yet. TimeTiker is currently available on Windows only. macOS and Linux versions are actively being developed and will be released in the near future.
Most time trackers require manual input or send your data to the cloud. TimeTiker is fully automatic, stores everything locally by default, and is built under Swiss privacy standards — similar to Proton or Infomaniak.
