Desktop Screen Recorder for Work

LuperIQ Productivity is a desktop screen recorder built for people who need to document what they do, not just remember it. It runs in the background while you work, capturing your screen at configurable intervals. When you stop, it generates timelapse videos at multiple speeds, an interactive HTML report with a clickable event timeline, and detailed breakdowns of which applications you used and for how long.

Drop a voice note and Productivity transcribes it with Whisper AI. Log a task, paste a code snippet, record a phone call duration, or mark a break. Everything gets timestamped and woven into your session report. When you are done, upload the session to your WordPress site for team visibility, export to Excel for invoicing, or keep everything local on your machine.

How it works

Press Ctrl+Alt+R to start recording. Productivity captures your screen using FFmpeg, tracks which window is in focus, and logs everything to a structured session directory. Pause with Ctrl+Alt+P when you step away, and it automatically detects idle time if you forget. When you stop recording, the app merges all segments, generates timelapse videos at five different speeds, builds an interactive HTML report, and exports your session data to Excel and CSV. The entire workflow is one hotkey to start and one to stop.

What gets captured

Every recording session collects multiple types of evidence. Use one or all of them depending on how detailed you need your documentation to be.

Screen Recording

Continuous desktop capture

Your entire screen is recorded in the background using FFmpeg. Configurable resolution from 640x480 up to 8K, with capture rates from 1 to 60 frames per second. The raw recording is saved as MKV and processed into MP4 timelapse videos.

Active Window Tracking

Know where your time went

Every 15 seconds, Productivity logs which application window is in focus and for how long. The final report breaks down your time by application with percentages, so you can see exactly how much time went to your code editor versus your browser versus Slack.

Voice Notes

Speak, and AI transcribes

Press Ctrl+Alt+V to record a voice note up to 60 seconds. Whisper AI transcribes it automatically and attaches both the audio file and the transcript to your session timeline. Five Whisper model sizes available, from tiny to large.

Task and Event Logging

Timestamp everything that matters

Log tasks, phone calls with duration, quick notes, and code snippets. Each event is timestamped and appears on the interactive timeline in your HTML report. Click any event to jump to that exact moment in the video.

Code Snippet Capture

Save what you wrote

Paste code directly into the session log with language and file metadata. Code snippets appear in expandable modals in the HTML report, connected to the timestamp when you saved them.

Break Tracking

Honest time accounting

Mark when you take a break and when you come back. Break durations are tracked separately so your billable hours reflect actual work time, not clock time.

Five timelapse speeds

Every session generates five video files at different speeds. Watch the full recording at real-time pace, or skim an eight-hour workday in minutes. The HTML report includes a speed selector so viewers can switch between them without downloading separate files.

Slowest 1x real time
Slower 1.6x speed
Normal 3x speed
Faster 8x speed
Fastest 30x speed

Interactive HTML reports

When a session ends, Productivity generates a self-contained HTML file that works as a complete session viewer. It includes a multi-speed video player with a dropdown speed selector, a clickable event timeline that jumps to the exact moment in the video, application usage statistics with percentage breakdowns, expandable code snippet modals, audio playback for voice notes with transcriptions, and a session summary with total duration, active time, and break time.

The HTML report is a single file. No server needed. Send it to a client, upload it to WordPress, or archive it locally. Anyone with a browser can review your entire session at whatever speed they want and jump to any logged event.

Built for evidence, not estimates

Clients ask how many hours you worked. Your boss wants to know what you did last Tuesday. A contractor dispute needs proof of work completed. LuperIQ Productivity replaces guesswork with timestamped, video-backed evidence that holds up when it matters.

The Excel export includes every event, every application switch, every break, and every voice note transcription in a structured spreadsheet ready for invoicing or auditing. The ICS calendar export creates calendar entries for each task with accurate durations.

Works in the background

Productivity is designed to stay out of your way. Start recording with a global hotkey and it minimizes to the system tray. A small, draggable overlay shows your current task name on screen so you always know what you are logging. The overlay is semi-transparent and click-through so it never blocks your work.

Auto-pause kicks in after a configurable idle threshold, so if you walk away from your desk, recording pauses automatically. When you come back, it resumes. No wasted disk space, no inflated session times.

Who uses Productivity

Freelancers and Consultants

Prove your hours, painlessly

Record every work session, generate timelapse videos your clients can skim, and export detailed Excel reports for invoicing. No more back-and-forth about how long something took.

Remote Workers

Show your team what you shipped

Upload sessions to WordPress so your team lead or project manager can review your work at 8x speed. The clickable timeline means they can jump to specific tasks without watching the whole thing.

Developers

Document your deep work

Log code snippets, track which files you worked in, and capture voice notes explaining your thought process. Perfect for code review context, onboarding documentation, or just remembering why you made a decision.

Contractors and Trades

Proof of work, timestamped

Document job site progress, equipment inspections, and daily work with screen-recorded evidence. Especially useful when disputes arise about when work was completed.

Agencies

Track work across client projects

Name each session by client and project, then upload to a shared WordPress site. Your team gets transparent time tracking without the overhead of manual timesheets.

Managers and Team Leads

Review without micromanaging

Your team records their sessions. You review the timelapse at 30x speed, spot-check events on the timeline, and get application usage breakdowns. Visibility without surveillance.

Global hotkeys for everything

Every action in Productivity has a keyboard shortcut that works from any application. You never need to switch windows to log something. All hotkeys are fully customizable in settings.

Ctrl+Alt+R Start or stop recording
Ctrl+Alt+P Pause or resume
Ctrl+Alt+N Log a quick note
Ctrl+Alt+V Record a voice note
Ctrl+Alt+T Focus the task field
Ctrl+Alt+D Open detailed entry dialog

Upload sessions to WordPress

Productivity connects to any WordPress site using application passwords. When a session ends, you can upload it directly from the app. It creates a new post with the session summary, attaches the timelapse videos and HTML report to the media library, and publishes everything so your team or clients can review it from any browser.

Pair it with the LuperIQ Wisdom plugin and your sessions become part of your site dashboard. Manage recordings alongside your other LuperIQ modules, control access with WordPress user roles, and keep all your work documentation in one place.

Frequently asked questions

Is LuperIQ Productivity free?

Productivity is part of the LuperIQ ecosystem. A free tier is available for personal use with basic recording features. Teams and organizations can upgrade for WordPress integration, advanced reporting, and priority support.

What operating systems are supported?

Linux with X11 is fully supported today. Windows, macOS, Wayland, and ChromeOS support are in active development.

Does it slow down my computer?

Productivity uses FFmpeg for screen capture, which is highly optimized. At the default 1 FPS capture rate, CPU usage is minimal. Higher frame rates use more resources, but you can configure the balance between quality and performance.

How much disk space does a session use?

It depends on resolution, frame rate, and session length. A typical 8-hour session at 1920x1080 and 1 FPS generates roughly 500 MB of raw video. Timelapse files are much smaller since they compress the timeline.

Can I use it for client billing?

Yes. The Excel export includes timestamped events, application usage, break durations, and total active work time. Many freelancers use the timelapse videos as visual proof alongside their invoices.

Does it record audio from my microphone?

Only when you explicitly record a voice note using the hotkey. Productivity does not continuously record audio. Voice notes are limited to 60 seconds each and are transcribed with Whisper AI.

Can my team see my recordings?

Only if you upload them. Sessions stay on your local machine until you choose to push them to WordPress. There is no background monitoring or automatic upload.

How does the WordPress integration work?

You configure your WordPress site URL and an application password in settings. After a session, click upload and Productivity creates a post with your session summary, timelapse videos, and HTML report attached. Your team can review everything from the WordPress dashboard.
