Second-job and overemployment detection for remote employees
Remote workers holding two or three full-time jobs is a real problem. Watchie surfaces the signals so you can ask the right question.

What’s included in second-job detection
Other companies’ chat workspaces
Time in a Slack or Teams workspace that isn’t on your approved list is flagged by name.
Other companies’ email
Email accounts from domains that aren’t yours, seen in window titles, are flagged.
Remote-desktop & virtual machines
AnyDesk, TeamViewer, Parallels and similar tools suggest work is happening on another computer.
Overlapping meetings
Two meeting apps at once is a strong sign of double-booking.
Long quiet stretches
Hours with almost no activity while clocked in, and idle time outside breaks.
Signals, not verdicts
Every flag says exactly what was seen. You decide what it means — with the person.
Second-job detection: frequently asked questions
Does Watchie record what people type?
No. Watchie counts whether the keyboard and mouse were used each second. It never records which keys were pressed, what was typed, passwords or the clipboard.
How does Watchie spot a mouse jiggler?
Gadgets and scripts move the mouse in patterns people don’t: perfectly regular timing, identical movements, motion with no clicks or typing, and no change of window. Watchie flags 10-minute blocks that look like that and says exactly why.
How does second-job detection work?
Watchie surfaces signals: time in another company’s Slack or Teams workspace, email from other companies’ domains, remote-desktop or virtual-machine software, and overlapping meetings. These are reasons for a conversation, not proof on their own.
How often are screenshots taken?
You choose 0 to 3 per 10 minutes, at a random moment. Screenshots can be blurred, every person sees a notice when one is taken, and you can let people delete one within 10 minutes.
How long are screenshots kept?
30 days by default, and you can change it. Older screenshots are deleted automatically.
Does Watchie use the camera or microphone?
No. Watchie never turns on the camera or the microphone.
Is anything recorded on a break or off the clock?
No. Nothing is tracked while someone is on a break or clocked out.
