The Opportunity

Problem

Remote workers and HR teams are frustrated by invasive time tracking tools that fail to accurately capture asynchronous work, making productivity measurement unreliable.

Solution

Workers upload/share work artifacts (docs, PRs, tasks done); peers/HR validate impact quickly. AI quantifies output velocity for reliable metrics. Perfect for distributed teams ditching time logs.

Target Audience

Remote workers and HR teams managing productivity in distributed companies

Differentiator

Peer-validated outputs create social proof, gamifying async accountability.
