Complete AI Governance for the Workplace

Discover shadow AI, measure AI adoption, protect sensitive data, enforce policy, and stay audit-ready – all from one platform.
CurrentWare helps you answer the questions that matter:

  • Are employees using unapproved AI tools?
  • Is AI adoption on track – and are our AI investments paying off?
  • Which AI licenses are delivering value, and which should we reclaim?
  • Where should we invest in AI next?
  • What work should we automate next?
  • Are we compliant, secure, and audit-ready?

How CurrentWare Helps Answer These Questions

See exactly how CurrentWare helps you find, measure, and control AI use across your organization.

Discover shadow AI

Find every AI tool being used by your employees, including the ones they didn’t submit for approval. You can’t write an AI policy for tools you can’t see.

Measure AI adoption and license ROI

See which teams actually use the AI seats you’re paying for, and which licenses to reclaim at renewal. Same usage data that drives software license optimization.

Track AI activity by keyword

AI-assisted OCR reads the text inside captured screenshots, so an investigation becomes a keyword search, not opening images one at a time.

Enforce your AI acceptable use policy

Allow the tools you’ve approved and block the rest by user, group, department, or schedule. Different teams can follow different rules based on their needs.

Keep sensitive data out of AI tools

Pair BrowseControl web filtering with AccessPatrol device control so confidential files and records don’t reach unapproved AI platforms in the first place.

Stay AI audit-ready

Keep timestamped records of AI tool access, web activity, and file transfers. Give compliance, legal, and security teams the evidence they need.

Everything You Need in One Console

CurrentWare is a workforce analytics software that brings four modules onto one platform. Deploy just one, or all of them together as the CurrentWare Suite.

5 Reasons Why Teams Pick CurrentWare Over the Alternatives

Choosing a workforce analytics tool means weighing trade-offs: cloud vs. on-prem, one feature vs. all of them, entry pricing vs. what you actually end up paying.

Your data can stay on your servers

Deploy on-premise, self-managed, or in our cloud. With CurrentWare, monitoring data never has to leave your network, which is why government, defense, healthcare, and utility teams shortlist us.
The gap: most competitors are cloud-only, which rules them out before the evaluation even starts.

Four capabilities, one agent, one console

Be it productivity analytics, web and app filtering, USB device control with DLP, or PC power management, you get four all in one console.
The gap: analytics-only vendors send you elsewhere to buy filtering and device control.

Transparent monitoring, not covert surveillance

Choose exactly what you collect, switch off what you don’t need, and tell employees what’s monitored. CurrentWare ensures your program survives scrutiny from works councils, unions, and privacy regulators.
The gap: tools marketed on stealth create a rollout problem you inherit later.

Compliance evidence, not just dashboards

Controls and reports that map to HIPAA, NIST 800-171, CMMC, ISO 27001, NERC CIP, and CIPA, so an audit request becomes a report you run, not a project you staff.
The gap: productivity-first tools leave you assembling audit evidence by hand.

One price, every feature, 20+ years behind it

From approximately $12 per user per month in USD, CAD, and GBP, with volume discounts. The 14-day trial includes every feature, nothing held back for an enterprise tier.
The gap: tiered pricing that puts DLP, alerts, or on-prem behind a sales call.

Why CurrentWare Outperforms Other Work Intelligence Platforms

Trusted where risk is highest. Proven where it matters most. For over 20 years, CurrentWare has helped organizations move beyond basic monitoring to true workforce intelligence, control, and compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Workforce intelligence software is a tool that gives organizations visibility into how work actually gets done by their employees. It helps them track things like application and website usage, active vs. idle time, and activity across devices and locations. It works by turning raw activity data into actionable insights such as where time is going, which tools are actually being used, where bottlenecks or compliance risks exist, and where policies need to be tightened or resources reallocated.

AI governance is how an organization decides which AI tools employees can use, who gets access, and what data is allowed to go into them. CurrentWare supports this in three ways: BrowseReporter shows you which AI tools are actually being used, BrowseControl blocks the ones you haven’t approved, and AccessPatrol prevents sensitive files from leaving through devices or unapproved uploads.

CurrentWare tracks web and application activity across every managed device, so AI platforms show up in your reports whether or not IT approved them. You can break usage down by user, group, and department, catch shadow AI, and see how often your approved AI licenses are actually being used. Check out the full walkthrough on tracking AI usage.

Yes. BrowseControl lets you set allow and block rules by user, group, department, or schedule. That means an approved AI assistant can stay available for engineering while staying blocked for teams working with regulated data.

Adoption and impact aren’t the same thing. CurrentWare helps answer the impact question by comparing active versus idle time and application usage on the same work, before and after a team starts using an AI tool, so you get a measured comparison instead of a guess. That’s the kind of number a CFO wants to see when an AI license comes up for renewal.

Shadow AI refers to any AI use that never goes through the review process. In most cases it’s not someone downloading a rogue app. It’s an AI feature that got switched on inside a tool you already approved, so it quietly inherits your existing allow-list and never triggers a block. CurrentWare catches this by reporting on what people are actually using, not just what was approved. Learn more in AI Usage Insights.

Yes, and this is where AI governance becomes more than a productivity question. The teams handling PHI, CUI, or client records are the ones whose AI use actually carries risk. CurrentWare reports AI activity by user and group, and pairs it with the device and file transfer controls already mapped to HIPAA, NIST 800-171, CMMC, ISO 27001, and NERC CIP, so the same evidence supports both your AI policy and your audits.

Workforce analytics software collects and analyzes employee activity and productivity data to provide actionable insights. Organizations use it to optimize performance, improve resource allocation, and make informed, data-driven decisions that enhance overall workforce efficiency.

CurrentWare tracks employee activity, application usage, and workflow patterns to generate workforce analytics insights. Managers gain a clear view of productivity trends, idle time, and software usage to make decisions that boost team efficiency and operational performance.

Yes. CurrentWare’s workforce analytics software identifies productivity patterns, tracks task completion, and highlights bottlenecks. By providing actionable insights, it helps managers optimize workflows, increase accountability, and ensure remote teams remain productive and aligned with business goals.

CurrentWare monitors user activity, enforces IT policies, and blocks unauthorized devices. It helps organizations prevent data leaks, maintain regulatory compliance, and mitigate insider threats, ensuring sensitive business information and workflows remain secure./

Yes. CurrentWare integrates with SIEM platforms and other IT management tools, providing a centralized view of employee activity, software usage, and security events. This integration enables organizations to streamline reporting, enhance security monitoring, and optimize operational oversight.
