URLs

Website URL tracking that shows the sites behind each tracked hour

Staffic logs the website addresses a member visits while their timer runs in the desktop app, such as github.com or figma.com. The URLs page lists them for each tracked session with its project, task and time, so you can check browsing against the work it was logged to. URL tracking is on every plan and switched on in a new organization.

In short

What is Staffic URLs?

Staffic URLs is website URL tracking built into Staffic's time tracker: it shows which sites a member visited during tracked time and nothing outside it. Each tracked session on Remote Track, URLs lists the web addresses visited, such as github.com or app.staffic.io, beside its project, task and total time. URL tracking is on by default on every plan, and members see only their own sites.

Website URL tracking

Websites logged only while the timer runs

URL tracking starts on in a new organization. Sites are logged during tracked sessions and shown with the work they belong to.

  1. 01Start the timerA member tracks time on a project and task in the Staffic desktop app.
  2. 02Sites are loggedWhile the timer runs, the desktop app logs the address of each website the member visits.
  3. 03Review by sessionOpen Remote Track, URLs to see each session's websites next to its project, task and time.

Sites by session

The websites behind each tracked session

Remote Track, URLs lists the sites a member opened in each tracked session, under the project and task the time went to. Local addresses such as localhost:3000 show up too, which helps when developers test their own work.

Pick a member and a date. Each card shows the project, task, Start Time, End Time and Total Time, then one tile per website visited while that session ran.

  • One card per tracked session, grouped by day and member
  • One tile per website address visited
  • Local and internal addresses included, such as localhost:3000

Filter by project, then by task, to narrow the list to one piece of work. Research time for one client then shows the sites it actually went to.

  • Project first, then one of its tasks
  • Useful when a client asks about research hours
See Projects

The Most used card on the dashboard shows the top 4 sites of the running week on its Websites tab, ranked by active time, with how many times each was listed.

  • Top 4 websites of the running week
  • How many tracked sessions each site came up in

Admins and roles with Remote Track access pick one member to review, or several at once. Everyone else sees only the sites from their own sessions.

  • One member or several at once
  • Members see only their own sites

Pick the day you want to check. Show times in the organization's or the member's time zone, so a session's start and end match the member's working day.

  • Members see the sites from their own sessions on the URLs page
  • Teammates' sites are visible only to admins and roles with Remote Track access

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers about website URL tracking with Staffic.

Read the URLs guide

What website data does Staffic track?

Staffic logs the address of each website a member visits while their timer runs, such as github.com or app.staffic.io. The URLs page shows those addresses for each tracked session, with its project, task, start time, end time and total time.

Does Staffic track browsing when the timer is off?

No. Websites are logged only while a member's timer runs in the Staffic desktop app. Once the timer stops, nothing more is logged until the next tracked session starts.

Can employees see their own URL history?

Yes. The URLs page always shows a member their own sessions and the websites in them. Teammates' browsing stays hidden unless the viewer's role has Remote Track access in Access control.

How do I turn URL tracking off in Staffic?

Open Settings, Activity & privacy and switch URL tracking off for the whole organization; it's on by default. You can instead switch Tracking off for one member under Individual members.

Can I see which websites were used for a project?

Yes. Choose the project, and one of its tasks if you like, at the top of the URLs page. Only sessions tracked to that work remain, each with the sites visited while it ran, which helps when a client asks about research time.

Can I check websites against screenshots?

Yes, on every plan. Open Screenshots for the same member and date to see the screens from the sessions whose sites you're checking. Both are filed by project and task, so the two line up.

Are local and internal addresses tracked?

Yes, they appear like any other site. A developer who tracks time against a local build sees addresses such as localhost:3000, and internal tools show up under their own address.

How much does it cost to use URLs?

Every plan includes URLs. Free covers up to 2 members. Standard is $7.50 per user per month billed yearly ($3.80 during the current offer, until October 30, 2026) or $9.50 billed monthly, and Elite is $10.00 per user per month billed yearly ($4.80 during the current offer, until October 30, 2026) or $13.00 billed monthly.
