8,239 Hours of Remote Work Made Visible as TRST01 Moves Its Whole Team onto Flowace
TRST01's business is built on making other companies' supply chains verifiable and trustworthy. When it wanted the same clarity over its own fully remote team, it moved off manual tracking and onto Flowace, getting all 55 users live in two short sessions, with transparent, privacy-first monitoring every employee could see for themselves.

ABOUT TRST01
TRST01 is a Hyderabad-headquartered climate technology company working across supply chain traceability, ESG reporting, and carbon measurement and verification, with operations reaching Singapore, UAE, the USA and close to ten countries in total. Its platforms help agribusinesses, exporters, manufacturers and policymakers show that their sustainability numbers hold up to scrutiny, built on Web3 and blockchain as the foundation for that trust. That was the paradox TRST01 found itself living with. A company built to give other businesses a clear, verifiable picture of their own supply chains had no equivalent picture of its own fully remote team. Projects and tasks were tracked by hand. There was no single record of who was working on what, or how the day was actually being spent.
Why TRST01 Was Still Tracking a Remote Team by Hand
TRST01 had never run a tracking tool before Flowace. Projects and tasks across a fully remote team were coordinated manually, which took real hours every week and still left gaps. Leadership could see deadlines. It could not easily see how the team’s time was going into those deadlines, or where one person’s plate was fuller than another’s.
No Shared Record of Work
Projects and tasks lived in scattered updates and manual check-ins instead of one place leadership could see. Every week, someone had to rebuild a picture that should have existed on its own.
Hours Spent Coordinating, Not Creating
Tracking down who was doing what took real time out of the week, time that went into managing the work rather than doing it.
No Way to Sense-Check a Remote Team
Fully remote means not walking the floor to see how work is really going. Without a shared system, that check never happened, and small issues could sit unnoticed longer than they should.
One Platform Instead of Several
TRST01 had Aanchal from the Flowace team on the first call, and the evaluation moved quickly from there. They looked at other tools during the trial, but what tipped the decision was Flowace working as a single place for employee monitoring, productivity insight, workforce management, and projects and tasks together, rather than stitching several tools into one. The hands-on onboarding support offered during the trial, and how fast the team could get moving, sealed it.
That is the first half of the differentiator, one platform doing the work of four, for a distributed team that had been running on none.
The Whole Team Was Live in Two Hours
- Two-hour onboarding
- TRST01's rollout happened across two sessions of about an hour each, on back-to-back days.
- Day one
- Installation and getting the application running across the organisation.
- Day two
- The second session closed out the rollout.
- All 55 users from day one
- Every user was added to Flowace from the start.
- Privacy explained upfront
- Every employee saw the Privacy Mode and Work Mode toggle in their own session.
- Clear tracking visibility
- Employees could see exactly when they were being tracked and when they were not, with an on-screen reminder whenever Privacy Mode was on.
- No black box
- Nobody was onboarded without visibility into how monitoring worked.
- Monitoring rolled out openly
- For a company whose entire product is built around verifiable trust, TRST01 applied the same standard to its own team that it holds its customers' data to.
“The onboarding felt smooth from the very first call. And once we got into AI time tracking, that is the one that really stood out for us.”
What TRST01 Can Now See
TRST01 is using all four core Flowace modules, and within weeks each one was giving leadership a view it simply never had before.
-
Employee Monitoring
8,239 work hours auto-captured across the 43 tracked users, with accurate start and end times and no manual check-ins.
-
Workforce Management
6,213 project hours mapped across 11 live projects, giving TRST01 a resourcing picture of its active work that did not exist before.
-
AI-Enabled Time Tracking
Every hour logged automatically with zero timesheets, including 649 hours beyond the original plan, captured and credited rather than lost.
-
Productivity Insights
A 95.9% productivity reading surfaced instantly, alongside 1,697 idle hours the team can now see and plan around instead of losing quietly to the day.
-
The visibility into projects and tasks has landed especially well at the founder level, giving leadership a clearer read on where the team's time and attention actually go.
The First Clear Picture
For a team that had never been tracked before, this is the first real record of how its time is spent, and the striking part is that it did not take a push to get there.
The very first clear view revealed the level of tracked time spent on productive work.
Every hour is captured automatically, no manual timesheets, across 43 users.
Idle time that used to disappear into the day, now measurable and recoverable.
The 95.9% is not something TRST01 had to chase. The team was already working at that level. What changed is that leadership can finally see it, prove it, and build on it.
Underneath it sits a second layer of visibility the company never had: 6,213 hours of work mapped across 11 live projects in one place, a resourcing signal a manually tracked team simply could not access before. Two of those projects account for close to 59% of that effort, an early load-balancing signal now visible for the first time.
And the strongest contributors, invisible a month ago beyond a hunch, are now clear in the data whenever recognition or coaching calls for it.
Trusting Flowace with the Whole Team
- Trust, Transparency, Traceability
- TRST01 describes what it does in three words. Putting Flowace across its entire team from day one, in the open, is its own small version of that same standard, applied internally rather than sold to a client.
- Clear Privacy Controls
- Every employee saw the privacy toggle in their own onboarding session and knew exactly what was and was not tracked.
- Smoother Adoption
- Because employees knew what was and was not tracked, adoption looked nothing like the usual story of software people discover is watching them after the fact. That is very likely why the entire fully remote organisation was comfortable coming on board in two short sessions instead of resisting for weeks.
- Complete Visibility
- The team went from no visibility at all to a full, clean view of its work across productivity, hours and project load, without slowing the work down to get there.
