Get the desktop agent
One file. Your team runs it, signs in once, and their activity reaches your dashboard from any network — office, home or on the road.
Four steps, about a minute
Download and unzip
Save QuillclockAgent.zip, then right-click it → Extract All. Inside is a single file, QuillclockAgent.exe. There is nothing to install and no config file to edit.
Run it and sign in
Double-click the file and sign in with the email and password the admin created in the dashboard. The server address is already built in.
Accept the monitoring notice
The app shows exactly what it records and asks for consent. Nothing is sent until Accept is pressed.
Leave it running
It sits quietly in the background counting activity and uploading every minute. The dashboard updates live.
If Windows SmartScreen warns you
The app is not code-signed yet, so Windows may show a blue “Windows protected your PC” screen the first time. Click More info → Run anyway. Some antivirus products also flag it, because counting keyboard and mouse events looks like a keylogger to heuristics — the agent records how many events happened, never which keys.
Start it automatically at logon
Put the exe and install.ps1 in the same folder and run:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install.ps1
That copies it to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Quillclock, adds a logon shortcut and launches it — no admin rights needed. Undo it with uninstall.ps1.
Before you deploy it to a team
Tell people they are being monitored first — the in-app Accept is the recorded consent, and in most places disclosure is a legal requirement, not a courtesy. See exactly what is recorded →
