Clockgauge Use case

Clockgauge for support and operations teams

Calls are the job. Count them.

Updated October 9, 2026·1 min read
Short answer

Support and operations teams spend long stretches on calls with little typing. Clockgauge can count video calls as active time, cap consecutive minutes and show call minutes in reports, so call-heavy work is not marked idle. Reports can be grouped by person or project to see where time goes.

Why this matters

Keyboard-only idle detection misreads call-heavy roles. See why meetings should not count as idle time.

Limit

Detection is for video calls through the computer's microphone or camera, not for desk phones.

Reporting for call-heavy roles

Group by person or by project and read activity alongside call minutes. A person with a lower activity percentage but many call minutes is probably doing what the role asks.

Questions people ask

Can it record calls?

No. It never records audio or video.
