Activity history

See what ModePilot did over time.

ModePilot keeps a visible history of status changes, DND changes, mode switches, and triggered events so you can review how the day was interpreted instead of treating the automation like a black box.

Get started

Automation should not feel like a black box

ModePilot changes Slack and workday boundaries on your behalf. You should be able to see what it did, when it happened, and what prompted the decision—without digging through technical logs.

Invisible changes are harder to trust

A status update or DND session feels more dependable when the exact transition remains visible after the moment has passed.

Everyday questions deserve simple answers

Why did Slack change? When did focus begin? What ended the workday? The answer should not depend on reconstructing the calendar from memory.

A useful history is not a surveillance dashboard

The goal is confidence in your own automation—not employee monitoring, compliance reporting, or a wall of backend events.

Every change should stay explainable.

History is not surveillance.

Visible decisions are easier to trust.

A readable history of every user-facing change

ModePilot turns status updates, DND sessions, mode changes, schedule transitions, and overrides into a practical timeline you can understand at a glance.

Review the signals other people saw

  • Identify deliberate exceptions
  • Separate manual from automatic
  • Review overrides later

See every automated change remain visible and explainable

The point is not abstract observability. It is being able to answer the practical questions that come up after the system already acted.

Understand each change in your day

Activity history keeps automation explainable. It is lighter and more practical than the totals, targets, and forecasts in time tracking.

Time tracking and summaries

Manual · Rigid · Outdated fast

  • Answer how much time was logged across the day or week.
  • Support totals, forecasts, and target visibility.
  • Center on work-time understanding rather than individual automation events.

Activity history

  • Answers what changed, when it changed, and what triggered it.
  • Keeps Slack, mode, and boundary automation reviewable after the fact.
  • Supports trust in the system without turning it into a reporting dashboard.
