The moment the daily report is due, most of us can't remember what we did today. It isn't forgetfulness — nobody was keeping the record.
Time trackers answer with charts and scores: three hours in the browser, focus 62. They grade people, yet never answer the question that matters — what did I actually move forward today?
S-tello Trace takes the other road: no scores. It just remembers for you.
It isn't a timesheet — it doesn't count the hours you're supposed to feel guilty about. It isn't a screen recorder — it doesn't hoard your screen, and local replay is off by default. And it isn't your boss's dashboard — the personal edition's data belongs to you alone. It is a work memory that writes itself.
A private work memory
It runs quietly in the menu bar, weaving signals from on and off your computer — apps, pages, meetings, offline work you add yourself — into a timeline you can verify. Everything is recorded on your own machine; you can correct it anytime, or pause it anytime.
Workplace-suite summaries (Feishu, DingTalk, Teams) only see the you inside collaboration software, while real work runs through the browser, the IDE, spreadsheets and offline conversations — Trace sees the whole day, and the data stays yours.
Today's story is already written
Open it in the evening and the narrative is done: not "you used four apps," but "from customer feedback to an executable deployment plan." Every claim can be traced back to its evidence; copy it out and your daily report is written.
As the days accumulate, it starts recognizing paths that repeat — the weekly rounds of collecting, reconciling, cross-checking. Those are your methods, and they are exactly what's worth handing to AI: the personal edition sees them, and the organizational edition turns them into agents.
Letting AI understand your work shouldn't mean handing over your screen history
Raw evidence stays on your machine by default. Local screenshot replay is off by default, cloud vision requires separate consent, sensitive apps are excluded before capture, and signing in never uploads your history.
Your work deserves a memory of its own. Free for macOS: trace.s-tello.com
