The engine underneath every ThirdEyee dashboard: a lightweight desktop agent that syncs status every 10 seconds, tells the difference between idle and in-a-meeting, and gives managers a live, honest picture of the workday.
Every ThirdEyee agent reports in every 10 seconds — status, active app, and a fair activity score built from real keyboard and mouse signal, not guesswork.
Four systems run quietly in the background of the desktop agent so activity data stays accurate — and fair.
Every 10 seconds, the agent totals up keyboard presses, mouse movement, and clicks, and turns that into an activity percentage for the interval — not a proxy for "were you clever enough to move the mouse."
If there's no keyboard or mouse input for 30 seconds, status quietly switches to Idle. Stay away past that and the agent shows one friendly nudge — "Are you still working?" — instead of silently logging the gap.
The agent recognizes Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex windows automatically. While one of those is active, idle checks pause and activity holds steady — because sitting still on a call isn't the same as sitting idle.
Running quietly alongside activity scoring, the anti-cheat engine watches for patterns a human doesn't produce: keyboard spam, auto-clicker rhythms, and "mouse jiggler" movement with no real travel distance.
A clear, real-time picture — without micromanaging
A low-bandwidth, low-frequency look-in on an active employee's screen — helpful for a quick check, not a permanent recording.
Periodic screenshots on a company-set interval, with an optional blur filter so proof-of-work doesn't mean exposing every detail on screen.
A full daily timeline per employee — status changes, apps used, and project time, laid out in order.
Sessions are tagged automatically by IP address against a saved office IP, so location reporting doesn't rely on the honor system.
One page per employee combining status, recent activity, screenshots, and schedule — everything a 1:1 conversation needs.
Toggle screenshots on or off per employee, and clean up individual or bulk captures whenever they're no longer needed.
Tracking that bends around real workdays, not the other way around
No connection, no problem — the agent keeps logging locally and syncs everything automatically the moment it's back online.
Starting an official break pauses screenshots and activity scoring cleanly — no idle penalty for stepping away on purpose.
A compact, always-on-top control that shows status at a glance without hogging screen space.
Field work or offline hours can be logged manually and routed straight into a manager's approval queue.
A live roster of where each teammate is working from today, rolled up from IP-based detection across the team.
Employees sign into the agent the same way they sign into work — no separate password to manage.
