Overview

Time Doctor is an AI-powered workforce analytics and time-tracking platform aimed at organizations managing remote, hybrid, or in-office teams. It combines automatic time tracking with optional employee-monitoring features (screenshots, web/app usage, idle-time detection) to give managers visibility into how work time is spent, alongside AI-driven analytics that flag early signs of burnout, unusual activity, and productivity shifts.

The product is organized around four capability areas: Time and Attendance (automatic/manual tracking, attendance, breaks, offline tracking), Employee Visibility (web/app usage, idle time, screenshots and screen recording), Workforce Planning and Optimization (payroll-ready reporting, scheduling, time approvals, projects/tasks), and Analytics and Insights (Benchmarks AI peer comparisons, Meeting Insights, Software Cost Insights, executive dashboards). Higher plan tiers add AI-driven features such as Benchmarks AI, Unusual Activity reporting, and video screen recording.

Founded in 2012 by Rob Rawson and Liam Martin, Time Doctor is a privately held, bootstrapped company reporting roughly 150 employees across 30+ countries and 280,000+ active users. It integrates natively with HR and payroll systems including Workday, BambooHR, Rippling, ADP, and Xero AU Payroll, and connects to 60+ project-management, CRM, and help-desk tools via a browser extension, open API, and Zapier.
