Worksnaps provides verifiable time tracking for remote work. It groups recorded activity into 10-minute work snaps, which can be reviewed alongside a screenshot, activity volume and active applications. The client records mouse and keyboard click counts but does not capture typed keystrokes. Users can approve or deny screenshots, pause tracking, use private mode and configure filters for screenshots and application names. Project and user dashboards, customizable reports, calendar and timeline views, and invoices based on logged time are available. Integrations including Asana, Jira, Basecamp, Trello, Redmine, Teamwork, Zapier, Freshbooks and Harvest can import projects and tasks or synchronize logged time. The service has web access and a desktop client for Windows 7 through 11, macOS 10.9 or above, and Linux distributions. Its web console supports most modern browsers. A free plan covers one person and one project; paid plans include Starter at $20 a month, Team at 40.00 USD, Department at 70.00 USD and Business at 90.00 USD. A 30-day trial is listed. Uploaded screenshots are stored for two years, with shorter retention available on request. Worksnaps says it uses SSL for transmitted information and commercially reasonable security methods.
