Why Teams Switch
Teams move to Intelogos because they want performance intelligence, not surveillance — deeper insights that respect employee privacy and build trust.
Want to know how the team performed this week? Or exactly what Sarah was working on at 2:30pm yesterday? Just ask. Intelogos AI understands your workforce at every level — from high-level trends to minute-by-minute detail. Time Doctor gives you raw data and expects you to figure it out.
Time Doctor takes screenshots, records video, tracks keyboard/mouse activity, and supports invisible monitoring. Intelogos delivers deep performance insights WITHOUT screenshots, video recording, or keystroke logging. Your team stays productive because they're empowered, not surveilled.
Intelogos gives you the KPI Engine measuring five performance dimensions (Time, Engagement, Productivity, Contribution, Activity), Chronicle with minute-by-minute window-level context, and work rhythm analysis — all queryable through AI. Go from a team-wide summary to what a specific person did at a specific time, instantly.
Time Doctor's desktop app is widely reported as a "resource hog" that slows down computers, crashes, and fails to sync. Intelogos offers a background agent option designed for minimal system impact — so your team can focus on work, not fighting their tools.

Chronicle provides a minute-by-minute activity timeline showing exactly what each team member worked on with window-level context. You see not just "Chrome" but which specific pages and tabs were used, and how engaged the person was. This is the data layer that powers AI's ability to answer granular questions — structured, searchable, and queryable.

Intelogos achieves deep workforce insights through the KPI Engine — measuring Time, Engagement, Productivity, Contribution, and Activity — without screenshots, video recording, or keystroke logging. Employees accept monitoring tools more readily when they feel respected. Time Doctor's surveillance approach has been labeled "bossware" by the EFF and actively drives employees to find ways to circumvent monitoring.

Go beyond simple active vs idle tracking. Intelogos understands work rhythms, detects focus vs fragmentation, measures context-switching impact, and identifies sustainable vs excessive work patterns. Time Doctor's aggressive idle time detection flags users for not moving their mouse — creating anxiety rather than insight.
