Trail — Browsing Insights

About

Trail shows you how you actually spend your time on the web — with full search, beautiful charts, and zero tracking by us.

✨ WHAT TRAIL DOES

- Tracks how long you spend on each website automatically
- Groups your history by domain so you can see your real habits
- Visualises your browsing with daily charts and an hourly heatmap
- Lets you search every visit by URL, title, or domain
- Shows you which sites you visit most and which take the most time

🔒 PRIVACY FIRST

Trail is built around a simple promise: your browsing stays yours. Every visit, every timestamp, every byte of data lives ONLY on your device. There is no server, no account, no analytics, no third-party tracking. We can't see your data because we never receive it.

🎯 GREAT FOR

- Remote workers tracking productivity habits
- Students managing focus and distractions
- Anyone who wants the insights of RescueTime without sending data to a cloud service

💡 WHY TRAIL?

Most browsing trackers send your data to their servers to "analyse" it for you. Trail does all the analysis locally. Your data never leaves your computer, which means you can use it without worrying about who else might see where you've been.
