Your day, mapped

See where your day actually went.

Focal Map turns what you do on your computer into a calm timeline of your day — which apps, which sites, which client — so you can label it, understand it and bill for it. It records metadata only: never a keystroke, never a screenshot, never what's inside your documents.

An example day in Focal Map, up to now (15:40).
What it does for you

From "where did the afternoon go?" to a day you can account for.

See your day

Your activity is grouped into blocks of focus, context switches and breaks, automatically — an honest picture, described rather than graded.

Label it in a few clicks

Focal Map suggests what you were working on and groups related activity, so you confirm a whole afternoon at once. You stay in charge of every label.

Account for it

Time lands against the right client and project, ready to review — and, with an add-on pack, turned into draft billable entries.

On your side

A map of your day, not surveillance software.

You see everything Focal Map records, and you decide what happens to it. It is built so that it can't capture the things monitoring tools do.

Never captured

  • The text you type or the keys you press
  • Screenshots or screen recordings
  • The contents of documents, messages or emails
  • Passwords, or anything you enter into a field

What it records

  • Which application is in front, and for how long
  • Window titles and website domains
  • A count of activity — enough to tell focus from idle
  • The labels you choose to apply

Features

Everything you need to account for your time.

A timeline that fills itself in

Apps, sites and documents become sessions with idle time and breaks marked — no timers to start and stop.

Client context from Outlook

Working in Outlook or Outlook on the web? Focal Map can tell which client an email is about, so the time lands in the right place.

Suggestions you confirm

Related activity is grouped into a single suggestion. Approve it, change it or leave it — Focal Map learns from what you confirm.

Labels and rules that stick

Sensible activity labels and starter rules on day one, then your own on top. Your labels always win.

Your phone, for time away from the desk

The Android companion logs calls, meetings and travel with one tap, and shows your day on the go — end-to-end encrypted between your devices.

Stays on your computer

Everything is stored locally. Cloud features are opt-in, and off until you turn them on.

Add-on packs

Built for people who bill their time.

Packs add industry knowledge on top of your timeline. Add one to any subscription.

  • Recognises legal research, document management and court systems
  • Finds matter numbers in what you were working on
  • Draft time entries in 0.1-hour units, with gaps flagged

  • Recognises PSA, RMM, remote-access, documentation and security tools
  • Picks up ticket numbers so time follows the ticket
  • Draft billable entries per client, ready to review and export
