BirdsEye

Automatic employee time tracking your team can trust.

BirdsEye is employee monitoring and time tracking software that records the working day by itself: live status, timesheets, attendance and Jira worklogs, with rules every employee can see.

14 days free. No credit card needed.

Why choose BirdsEye for employee monitoring and time tracking.

Tracking that stops when the working day does.

Outside your working hours and days the agent pauses itself and captures nothing. A manager's capture request is refused too.

How BirdsEye handles privacy and security

Every employee sees the tracking rules.

The agent shows each person their tracking hours, screenshot interval, blur level and idle threshold. Only an admin can change them.

Screenshot proof without reading the screen.

Blur screenshots and webcam clips lightly or heavily. You confirm the work happened without a readable copy of the screen.

Blur level

Two devices, one honest total.

Time that overlaps on a laptop and a desktop is counted once, so hours are never reported twice.

A day offline is not a lost day.

The agent keeps recording without internet, shows how much is waiting and syncs when the connection returns.

Jira worklogs that correct themselves.

Edit or delete tracked time and the Jira worklog follows. Repeated syncs never create duplicates.

How the Jira time tracking integration works

Time tracking, attendance and productivity reports in one place.

  2. About five minutes for each employee

    Each person sets a password, installs the desktop agent and signs in. The agent shows them what is recorded and what is not.

Frequently asked questions

What is BirdsEye?

BirdsEye is employee monitoring and time tracking software for teams that work on computers. A desktop agent records the active application, working hours and idle time. A web dashboard turns that into live status, timesheets, attendance, productivity reports and Jira worklogs. BirdsEye is a product of BoomersHub LLC.

What does BirdsEye track?

BirdsEye tracks the application in the foreground and its window title, the domain of the website in the active browser tab, and idle time. Screenshots are taken at randomized intervals and can be blurred. Webcam capture is optional, and website tracking can be switched off.

Can employees see what BirdsEye records about them?

Yes. The desktop agent shows each person the rules that apply to them, including tracking hours, screenshot interval, blur level and idle threshold. Employees can also see their own day, their activity log and their own screenshots, unless the company switches off screenshot viewing.

Does BirdsEye track outside working hours?

No. Tracking only runs inside the working hours and working days the company configures. Outside that window the agent pauses itself and captures nothing, and a manager's request for an immediate capture is refused. If the company allows it, an employee can choose to extend tracking for overtime.

Does BirdsEye work without an internet connection?

Yes. The desktop agent keeps recording offline, stores everything locally, shows how many items are waiting and syncs when the connection returns.

Which platforms does BirdsEye support?

The desktop agent runs on 64-bit Windows, with updates offered inside the app. macOS and Linux builds are available on request. The dashboard runs in current mainstream desktop browsers, and administrators and managers can use the Android app.

Does BirdsEye integrate with Jira?

Yes. Employees can pick a Jira issue as their task in the agent, and BirdsEye keeps Jira worklogs matched to tracked time. If a time entry is edited or deleted, the worklog is updated or removed.

How much does BirdsEye cost?

BirdsEye starts at $5 per user per month on annual billing. The Team plan is $8 and the Business plan is $12 per user per month. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial.

Is it legal to monitor employees with BirdsEye?

In the United States, employers can generally monitor work computers for business purposes. Some states, including New York, Connecticut and Delaware, require written notice, and the EU and UK require a lawful basis, transparency and proportionality. BirdsEye shows every employee what is recorded, but each company is responsible for following the laws where it operates.

Who makes BirdsEye?

BirdsEye is built and operated by BoomersHub LLC, a company based in Morrisville, North Carolina.

How long does it take to set up BirdsEye?

An administrator can configure the organization in about an hour: tracking rules, teams, invitations and projects. Each employee then needs about five minutes to set a password, install the agent and sign in.
