Heatmap and Trends

Time and tracking. See when you work, hour by hour, and how your numbers move month by month, with markers.

Heatmap: when you work

Each cell is one hour (SAST). The colour shows who did most of the work in that hour, you or the AI, and a stronger shade means more activity. Choose a range at the top: 7 days, 30 days or All time.

Select a cell to list the sessions active in that hour. Each links to its session page.

Trends

Trends shows everything tracked, month by month.

Charts:

  • Hours per month: your hours and AI wall-clock hours.
  • Leverage per month: AI wall-clock divided by your hours. Blank in months when you logged almost no time.
  • Cost per PR: API-equivalent cost per pull request opened that month.

Below the charts, a table by month lists hours, leverage, real cost and API-equivalent cost.

Markers

Markers are dated notes, such as a model switch or a new client. Each marker is drawn as a labelled line on every chart and listed under its month in the table, so you can see whether a change made a difference.

  1. Under Markers, use "Add a marker".
  2. Enter the date and a short label.
  3. Save. Delete a marker from the list when you no longer need it.
