More Accurate Productivity Scores with Smarter Categorization
When your employees spend at least 10 minutes on an app or website, WebWork AI automatically detects and classifies them, eliminating the need for manual setup.
Here is what WebWork AI does:
Assigns the correct productivity label—Productive, Neutral, and Non-Productive
Applies the most relevant category, such as Communication, Development, Design, or else
Updates productivity calculations in real time for accurate reporting
Detects Productive and Non-Productive Apps
An app can be productive for one team and non-productive for another. The automatic work categorization feature of WebWork classifies each app or website as productive, neutral, or non-productive, so time spent is reflected accurately in productivity scores.
For example:
- Figma is recognized as Productive for the design team, but neutral for the support team
- Facebook is classified as Non-Productive for the whole workspace, but Productive for the marketing team
- LinkedIn is treated as Neutral
This intelligent classification ensures productivity tracking stays accurate without manual input. You can always edit the classification for each team and the whole workspace.

How does WebWork automatically categorize apps and websites?
