Morning Journal

Sentiment helps organizations keep a pulse on how employees are feeling about their workdays in real-time. 

• Morning Journal section will expand by default on your homepage until you have accumulated at least 30 mins of activity in connected work apps for that day.  
• You can also access this section directly from your homepage by clicking on Morning Journal .
• If you have mobile notifications turned on you'll receive a notification at 9am local time to share your perspective report for the upcoming day. 
• Your responses are completely private and only visible to you. You can even add personal notes to your sentiments for your own reference.

Time Breakdown

Your Time Breakdown provides a summary of how your day was spent, allowing you to see patterns, and see trends in how you work. 

These insights take all of the activity data from the applications that you follow and compile them into 4 key metrics: Digital Working Hours, Time In Apps, Time In Calls, and Time In Meetings. There's no ideal "score" for these insights; we leave it to you to decide what the optimum values are for your role and working style. 

By default, when you visit this page, you'll see the insights for the current day.  You can use the Date Picker to navigate to past dates and toggle between daily and weekly metrics.

In addition, click on any score to unlock a more detailed Time Series and view. Explore daily and weekly trends and to look at the trends for a specific day of the week (ie. Mondays). This information enables you visualize patterns and how they're changing over time. 

Personal Insights

Your Personal Insights provides a high-level summary of your work patterns, making it easy to spot trends and comparisons.

These insights distill activity data from the applications you follow into two key metrics: Focus Score and Digital Intensity. You can use these metrics to understand your productivity levels and make adjustments to your workflow.

By default, you'll see insights for the current day, but you can use the Date Picker to explore past dates and toggle between daily and weekly metrics. 

Click on any score to unlock a more detailed Time Series view, allowing you to analyze trends over time and identify patterns in your work habits.

Goals

Personal Goals help you take charge of your workday and create a productive & healthy routine. Whether you aim to minimize distractions, improve digital wellbeing, or elevate your work output, Personal Goals are your tool for success. 

The Produce8 Homepage serves as a "snapshot" of your goal metrics. When you first navigate to this page, you'll find today's value, the percentage difference from your goal, and the goal value. 

From here, you can use the Date Picker to get a snapshot of your work patterns, Insights, and Goals and toggle between Daily and Weekly Views.

For more information on Goals please see here.

Top Apps

Ever wondered which apps occupy most of your work hours? The Top Apps feature displays the top five applications you use daily, along with the time of your usage. 

You probably already have an idea of which applications represent your best or more impactful work.  Use this report to understand the difference between how much time you'd like to spend in your top tools vs. how much you actually do. This is a key step towards identifying inefficient workflows & systems, and distractions that may be holding you back from your most important work.

Click on any of the Top Apps to delve into the Time Series and Intensity Heatmap view so you can analyze daily and weekly trends and your average use of the app in question across different days respectively. This data-driven approach empowers you to manage your app usage effectively so that your days go the way you want.

If Zoom, Slack, or Microsoft Teams is one of your Top Apps, you can view the time you spent in Calls by selecting the Calls tab. You can switch between Time in Calls, Call Interactions, and Avg Call Duration. 

If Google Calendar or Microsoft Outlook is one of your Top Apps, you can view the time spent in meetings by select the Calendar Events tab. 

The graphs will how sum total of Focus Time, Internal Meetings, and External Meetings. 

You can switch between Total Meeting Duration, Total Meetings, and Average Meeting Duration. 

You can filter by meeting type by selecting Focus Time, Internal Meetings, or External Meetings.

Personal Timeline

Your Timeline visually encapsulates your entire work journey, offering a comprehensive overview of all of the activity from the work applications that you follow over a specific time period. It consists of three swim-lanes: Views, Calls, and Calendar.

The top swim-lane displays your Views, illustrating your typical activities. Look for patterns that represent specific workflows, distractions, focus time, and healthy breaks & offline activities.

Directly below is the Calls swim-lane, providing a visual representation of your time spent in Zoom, Slack, and Microsoft Teams calls, huddles, and meetings.

The bottom swim-lane is the Calendar, which displays both past and planned calendar entries, allowing comparison between scheduled events and actual occurrences. For instance, examining a scheduled internal meeting on Zoom reveals if you were on the call for longer or shorter than expected.

When Views and Calls overlap, it indicates that you are interacting with other tools while on a call. This overlap could signify various scenarios such as screen sharing and presenting, or multitasking with other work tools during a meeting.

These swim-lanes help contextualize your calls within your overall workday and enable you to distinguish between focused sessions, brief distractions, or multitasking scenarios.

Use the Date Picker and Zoom to visualize any time period between one hour and one week on your Timeline. You can also use the Filter, to delve into how you use one or more specific apps to gain a clearer understanding of their impact on your workflow.
