  • Installable as an appOn phones and computers.
  • Part of your NanoNear accountSame sign-in as every app.
  • Billed on its ownIts own plan, nothing bundled.

What it solves

With people working from home you are left guessing who started late, where the hours went, and whether timesheets match the work.

Who uses Nano Work

  • Companies with remote or hybrid staff
  • Agencies and outsourcing teams that bill by the hour
  • Managers who need accurate timesheets

Why visibility matters for remote teams →

How it works

  1. Invite your team

    Add employees and send each one an invitation.

  2. They install the desktop app

    Windows, macOS or Linux, connected with a one-time code.

  3. They accept the notice

    Each employee sees what is recorded and agrees before anything is collected.

  4. You see the day

    Time, attendance and activity arrive on your dashboard.

What you can do with Nano Work

Everything below works today. Where a feature needs a particular plan, it says so.

Time and attendance

Hours that add up.

  • Work sessions

    When each person started, stopped and how long they worked.

  • Attendance

    Who was in, who was late against your working hours, and who was off.

  • Breaks

    Employees can take breaks, which are kept apart from working time.

  • Timesheets

    Timesheets for any date range, exportable on Pro and Enterprise.

Activity

What the time was spent on.

  • Active and idle time

    Time with no keyboard or mouse use is counted as idle.

  • Applications

    Which apps were used and for how long. On Pro and Enterprise.

  • Websites

    Which websites were visited and for how long. On Pro and Enterprise.

  • Productivity

    Mark apps and sites as productive or not, and see the split. On Pro and Enterprise.

  • Screenshots

    Optional screenshots at an interval you set, with blurring if you prefer.

Your team

Organised the way you work.

  • Employees and teams

    Group people into teams with their own dashboards. Teams are on Pro and Enterprise.

  • Devices

    See which computers are connected and disconnect one when needed.

  • Reports

    Reports across people and dates. Export to CSV or Excel on Pro and Enterprise.

Talk to your team

Chat and calls next to the hours. Included on every plan.

  • Team chats

    A chat for the whole company and one for each team, with the team manager in it. Direct messages for one to one.

  • Voice calls

    Call one person, a team or everyone from any chat or the employee list. Voice calls hold up to 12 people.

  • Video calls

    Face to face with up to 6 people, with screen sharing. Quality adjusts as people join.

  • Sensible reach

    Employees reach their team, their manager and admins. Managers reach the teams they run. Admins reach everyone.

Fair to employees

  • Monitoring notice

    Employees read and accept a notice before any data is collected.

  • Their own view

    Employees can sign in and see their own time and activity.

  • Retention you control

  • Audit log

    A record of what admins changed and when. On Enterprise.

Messages and calls, built into Nano Work

Your team already has Nano Work open, so the chat and the call button are right there. Message the whole company or one team, or press call next to any name on the employee list.

Calls run in the browser, person to person, and are not recorded. Calling a large team or everyone starts as a voice call.

A chat per team

Every team gets its own chat with its members and manager. New teams get one automatically.

One click to call

Voice or video from a chat, a team page or the employee list. Everyone in the chat is notified with a ring.

Light on bandwidth

Voice calls send no video at all, and video steps down in quality as more people join, so calls hold up on ordinary office internet.

Employees included

Employees with a Nano Work sign-in can chat and join calls from their own page, without a NanoNear account.

Use it as an app

Managers can install Nano Work from the browser to check the team from a phone. Employees use the desktop app for Windows, macOS or Linux, which runs quietly in the background.

Pricing questions

How does the free trial work?

You get every Pro feature for 14 days, for as many employees as you like, with no credit card required. Before the trial ends you choose a plan. If you don't, tracking pauses and your data is kept so you can pick up where you left off.

Who counts as a paid employee?

You choose how many employees to cover, and can add more at any time. Admins and managers who only view reports are free. The minimum is 3 paid employees.

How do volume discounts work?

Your discount is based on the total number of paid employees and applies to the whole account. It adds to the 20% yearly saving. For example, 300 employees on Pro billed yearly pay $3.20 per employee per month.

Can I change plans or add employees later?

Yes. You can change plan or add employees at any time from the Plans page in Nano Work. The new plan starts when the payment is confirmed and the old one is cancelled.

Are chat and calls extra?

No. Team chat, direct messages, voice calls for up to 12 people and video calls for up to 6 people are included on every plan.

What is founding customer pricing?

Customers who subscribe during our launch period keep the prices shown here for their first 2 years, even if our list prices go up in the meantime. After 2 years, your plan moves to the standard price at that time, and we'll let you know at least 30 days in advance.

What happens if we stop paying?

Tracking pauses and the dashboard is locked, but your data is kept within your plan's history period until you subscribe again.
