Attendance without the punch clock

See working-hour patterns and team coverage across locations and shifts, without asking employees to punch in manually.

Book a demo Start free trial

Momentum uses activity from approved devices and your configured work hours to surface coverage patterns and exceptions. Managers can review them with the right context.

Attendance without surveillance

Presence is derived from agent activity signals — start time, finish time, and active desk time. Attendance tracking never requires screenshots, webcam monitoring, or recording keystroke content.

// Capabilities

Everything in one place

01
Team coverage across time zones

Present and absent counts plus organisation strength percentage show who is reporting and where gaps exist across shifts and regions.

02
Working-hour trends

Average active desk time, start and finish patterns, and absence records give the data for planning and accountability conversations.

03
Activity with context

Start, finish, and classified app time appear together, so you can understand the pattern before drawing conclusions.

// Under the hood

How attendance tracking actually works

Not marketing abstractions — the real screens, rules, and signals that make up this part of the platform.

Attendance signals from managed devices

A device starting or stopping activity may need checking against leave, meetings, offline work, and local policy. Momentum derives attendance from what actually happens — the desktop agent records when each person's day starts and finishes — so presence is a by-product of working rather than a ritual performed at a kiosk. The Workforce Dashboard rolls this into present and absent counts and an organisation strength percentage.

Measured against your office hours

Admins configure office start and end times, workday hours, and expected desk hours in General settings. Every start time and active-desk-time figure is then read against that standard, so a 9:40 start means the same thing in every report. Late starts, short days, and quiet seats are visible as deviations from a rule you wrote — not as anyone's opinion.

View start, finish, and classified app time together

View start, finish, and classified app time together. These signals help explain a pattern; they do not, on their own, establish effort or work quality.

The master grid for the whole organisation

The dashboard's master user grid lists every member with their agent status, so you can sweep the entire organisation in one look — who is present, who is absent, whose agent has gone quiet. One screen replaces the morning roll-call entirely.

// The workflow

From install to insight in four steps

01
Define office hours

Set office start and end times, workday hours, and expected desk hours in General settings — the baseline every day is measured against.

02
Agents mark the day

Each person's start time and finish time are captured automatically by the agent as they begin and end work. No check-in required.

03
The dashboard rolls up

Present and absent counts, organisation strength percentage, and average active desk time update on the Workforce Dashboard.

04
Review and follow up

Review team coverage, then follow up on exceptions with the appropriate manager.

// In practice

Where teams put it to work

Plan coverage across time zones

Present and absent counts plus organisation strength percentage show who is reporting and where gaps exist across shifts and regions. One dashboard, thirty seconds, and the coverage picture is settled.

Resolve attendance exceptions transparently

A change in pattern surfaces as an exception. The Activity and Timeline views provide context so conversations start with understanding, not judgment.

Track lateness and policy compliance

Expected desk hours give remote and office staff the same yardstick. Start times against configured office hours build a factual record over weeks. HR conversations begin from data both sides can see.

// Questions

Attendance tracking, answered

Do employees need to clock in and out?+

No. The agent records each person's start and finish time from actual machine activity, so attendance is captured automatically without punch-ins.

How is someone marked present or absent?+

Presence follows agent activity for the day, measured against the office start/end and workday hours your admins configured. The dashboard shows live present and absent counts.

What is organisation strength?+

A percentage on the Workforce Dashboard showing how much of your total membership is present — a single number for today's coverage.

Can managers see attendance for other teams?+

Managers see analytics for their own team only — attendance data outside their remit stays out of view.

Does attendance tracking require screenshots or webcam monitoring?+

No. Attendance is built entirely from agent activity signals — start time, finish time, and active desk time. Momentum never takes screenshots, never accesses a webcam, and never records keystroke content.
