Walking into your 1:1 with nothing but memory?

Your one on one goes better when you bring the timeline. Worktrace builds a daily work log from the tools you already use, like Google Calendar, GitHub, and Jira, so you can show what you actually did instead of trying to recall it.

It only reads metadata. No messages, no code, no document contents, and no timers. You review and edit everything before it goes anywhere.

Do your meetings and code reviews ever disappear from your weekly summary?

They are real work, but they are easy to forget when you are rebuilding the week from memory. Worktrace pulls metadata from tools you already use, like Google Calendar, GitHub, and Jira, and turns it into a daily work log you can review and edit.

No timers. No manual entry. It never reads your code, documents, or messages.

Did you do more yesterday than you think?

Most of us remember the big thing and forget the ten small things around it. Worktrace pulls metadata from tools like Google Calendar, GitHub and Jira and turns it into a daily work log you can review and edit. No timers, no manual entry, and it never reads your messages or code.

Free at worktrace.io.
