# DeskTick

> Nobody writes a timesheet. DeskTick records sessions, files, branches, commits and pull requests, and turns them into reports and a verified developer profile. Free for developers; workspaces from $13 a seat.

Nobody writes a timesheet. Nobody types a task code. The work records itself. DeskTick keeps the record — sessions, files, branches, commits, pull requests. What it becomes depends on who reads it.

## What it does

- **Desktop app**: The desktop app records the work. Pick a workspace, a project and a task, then start. It captures the application and the file open inside it.
- **DeskGit CLI**: DeskGit, a sword for developers. Two questions, then it names the branch. Every commit opens already prefixed with its task key.
- **Live board**: A board nobody has to keep up to date. The card shows the timer running, the branch, commits, pull requests, reviewers and time spent. Nobody updates it; a manager just reads it.
- **Timesheet & attendance**: Timesheets and attendance fill themselves. Every timer session becomes a timesheet entry, down to the app and the file. Those entries become the team's attendance. Nobody checks in.
- **AI reports**: The day writes its own report. The record goes to the AI at the end of the day and comes back written up.
- **Whiteboard**: A board you draw on, and present from. Everyone on one canvas. The AI answers in shapes. A slide is a frame you already made.
- **DeskHuddle**: Where the work gets talked about. A chat beside the projects it is about. #pull-requests fills itself.

## One task, start to report

1. Start the timer. Pick the task in the desktop app and press Start. Nothing else is entered.
2. The board lights up. The task's card shows the clock running, live. Nobody has to ask what you are on.
3. The branch names itself. Run deskgit, pick the type and the task, and the branch is named and created for you.
4. Files get their hours. Time is recorded against CartProvider.tsx, not just against the editor.
5. The commit carries its key. DeskGit opens the summary on DESK-296/. You write the sentence, never the command.
6. The PR posts itself. It lands in #pull-requests in DeskHuddle, and the card on the board gets its reviewers.
7. It ships, and the card moves. Approved and merged: the card moves itself to Done, with the time the task took.
8. The day files itself. The sessions are the timesheet and the attendance, and the AI writes up where the day went.

## The developer profile

Free forever. Built in six steps:

1. Start with what you do. Specialization, three to eight skills, the languages you work in and a bio your AI reports read. Photo and CV, name and headline, where you are.
2. What you say you have done. Past employments and links. Self-declared, and badged as such — your years of experience are counted from them.
3. And what proves who you are. Education, certifications and identity documents, all in one place.
4. You decide who sees it. Handle, availability and job preferences. The directory is a choice, not a default.
5. Then somebody else confirms it. GitHub or Bitbucket, LinkedIn and LeetCode.
6. Paperwork, last. Bank account, addresses and terms — agreed last, having seen everything they cover.

## Questions

### Do developers pay anything?

No. The profile, the record and the CLI are free to the person doing the work. Workspaces pay per seat.

### Do you read my code?

No. Connecting GitHub or Bitbucket proves the account is yours and counts your activity — private repositories included, as a number. We never read a repository, an organisation or an employer.

### Do I have to connect a code host?

Only if your specialization writes code. Specialization is the first thing we ask, because it decides what you are asked to connect.

### Can I stop halfway through the profile?

Yes. “Finish later” sits under every step, and it is always there.

### What does paying yearly change?

It buys a cheaper month: $11 instead of $13 on Lite, and $16 instead of $19 on Project Management. You are still billed for twelve of them.
