    Lives in your menubar.

    A compact popup shows today’s tracked time, activity breakdown, idle gaps, and the active project without pulling you out of your work.

    Stop Babysitting Your Timer

    Electron trackers eat 200-400MB and feel foreign on macOS. Web-only trackers need a browser tab open. DevClocked is different — native, silent, automatic.

    01

    Download the app

    DMG installer, under 20MB. Drag to Applications. Takes 30 seconds.

    02

    Enter your API key

    Paste your DevClocked API key into the login screen. The daemon starts automatically. For Claude Code users, run npx devclocked setup to add the MCP server too.

    03

    It just works

    The daemon detects VS Code, Cursor, Terminal, and Claude Code activity. Sessions appear in your dashboard. Ask Claude "how long have I been coding today?" and it knows.

    Automatic Detection

    The Daemon Watches. You Don't Have To.

    DevClocked's sidecar daemon monitors your system for coding activity — file changes in project directories, IDE process activity, and terminal tool usage. When it detects you're coding, it starts tracking. When you stop, it pauses. No buttons, no commands, no interruptions.

    Multi-Source Sessions

    One Session Across All Your Tools.

    Switch from VS Code to Terminal to Chrome — the Mac app keeps your session alive. Activity from any source prevents idle timeout. You get one continuous session, not fragmented entries from different tools.

    Native Performance

    Built with Tauri + Rust. Not Another Electron App.

    The DevClocked Mac app uses Tauri (Rust + native WebView) instead of Electron. The result: under 50MB memory, instant startup, and a menubar-only presence that doesn't eat your battery or slow down your system.

    Memory Comparison

    DevClocked (Tauri)~45MB
    Toggl Desktop (Electron)~220MB
    Harvest (Electron)~180MB
    Timing (Native)~80MB

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know about DevClocked

    macOS 13 (Ventura) and later. The app uses native macOS APIs for menubar integration and process detection.

    They complement each other. The VS Code extension provides deep file-level tracking (active time per file). The Mac app provides broader system-level detection (Terminal, Claude Code, other IDEs). Both feed the same session — use one or both.

    Under 50MB typically. The Tauri/Rust architecture means it uses 3-5x less memory than equivalent Electron apps. It's designed to be invisible to your system resources.

    Not yet. The Mac app is our first desktop release. Windows and Linux versions are on the roadmap. In the meantime, the VS Code extension and terminal daemon work on all platforms.

    Track Without Thinking About It.

    Install once. It lives in your menubar. Every session, captured automatically. Free tier — no credit card required.
