Screen recording tiers
Beyond screenshots, VisibleHours can store recording sessions: off by default, on-demand start and stop, or a weekday window. Session video is a different switch from still photos. Set how many days to keep stopped sessions and keep blur on so future clips downscale text. The Windows tray shows a note whenever a session is open. Signed-in managers play real MP4s on Screen recording — a demo sample or a browser clip. OS screen capture is a Windows-agent path — the tray grabs a clip or uploads a file — not a hidden camera. The sample MP4 remains for demo. The recording tip on the manager screen is a VisibleHours reading of your settings, not a live language model. Public Search stays on this page. It will not start a session or record a team all day.
- Leave recording off, or turn on-demand or scheduled on in Screen recording. After sign-in, Ask “recording settings” or “start recording session”.
- Send the employee notice before the first session.
- Start and stop a person, or set a weekday window. The Windows tray picks it up on heartbeat.
- The tray grabs a clip or uploads a file. A sample MP4 or browser clip still works on Recordings.
- Set retention. Saving deletes older stopped sessions in your organization only.
What this is not
- Not on by default. A new org has zero recording sessions.
- Not always-on capture. Off does not invent a hidden camera.
- Not screenshots. Interval, blur, and still-photo retention stay on Settings after sign-in.
- Not a Mac-only grab. OS capture is Windows-agent; Linux/headless builds upload a file instead.
- Not a Mac agent. The Windows tray is enough.
- Not outreach. VisibleHours does not email employees from this screen.
- Not a done-for-you workflow. Public Search will not record your team all day.
