About SiteKeeper

SiteKeeper is a free Chrome extension that tracks time on every tab automatically, second by second, with daily, weekly and monthly breakdowns. You can set daily and weekly limits for specific sites, such as 30 minutes on a social network, and once the cap is reached the site remains blocked until the next reset, unless you grant extra time. Time windows allow stricter budgets during work hours.

Path analysis separates time on different paths of the same site, for example a repository page and the explore page, and is marked as a Pro feature. Analytics include a productivity score from 0 to 100, charts of weekly trends and export to CSV, and sites can be tagged with categories. The site says browsing data is not sold or shared with third parties. It is free to install, with a pricing page for Pro.
