Screentime

Screen Time for Windows (part of MonitUp) runs silently in the background on Windows PCs to track how much time is spent in apps, websites and files. It produces daily, hourly, weekly and monthly reports and classifies apps as productive, unproductive or neutral. The product is aimed at individuals wanting to boost personal productivity, managers who need workforce productivity reports, and parents who want visibility into kids' device use. Screen Time also analyzes recent usage with AI to generate actionable productivity tips and suggestions.

The software emphasizes automated measurement ("you cannot manage what you cannot measure"), easy installation, and a simple workflow: install the Windows app, let it run in the background, and review your usage on the MonitUp web dashboard. Data is retained for 365 days and the vendor provides a free trial and refund policy options.
