Up and running in minutes

ChromeWatch plugs into your existing Google Workspace Admin Console. No on-premise infrastructure, no separate passwords, no student interaction required.

01

Deploy the extension

Force-install the ChromeWatch extension to all managed Chromebooks via Google Workspace Admin Console. Students never see it and cannot remove it.

02

Activity is logged

Every URL, page title, and timestamp is captured silently. Data syncs to the ChromeWatch server every 2 minutes over encrypted HTTPS.

03

Data is isolated

Each school's data is stored in a completely separate, domain-keyed structure. It is technically impossible for schools to access each other's data.

04

Monitor the dashboard

Authorised staff sign in with their school Google account and get instant access to browsing history, user analytics, and export tools.

Everything your IT team needs

Built specifically for Google Workspace schools — not a generic web filter bolted onto an enterprise tool.

Real-time browsing history

Search, sort, and filter every URL visited across your entire Chromebook fleet. View activity by user, domain, or time range.

Per-user activity breakdown

Drill into any individual student's browsing history with visit counts and time-based filtering. Identify off-task behaviour instantly.

Google OAuth login

Staff sign in with their existing school Google account. No separate passwords, no account management, no additional MFA setup.

Multi-tenant isolation

Each school is completely isolated. Data is stored per domain — inaccessible to other schools or third parties at any time.

CSV & PDF export

Export browsing history for any user or date range. Perfect for compliance reporting, safeguarding documentation, and audits.

90-day data retention

Browsing data is automatically purged after 90 days in compliance with POPIA's data minimisation principles. No manual cleanup needed.

Built for everyone who manages school devices

From the IT manager running 500 Chromebooks to the teacher concerned about a student — ChromeWatch gives each stakeholder exactly what they need.

IT Administrators

Full dashboard access, client management, CSV exports, and domain-level oversight across all managed devices.

School Principals

High-level oversight of student device usage. Identify patterns and respond to safeguarding concerns with real evidence.

Teachers

Check whether students are on-task during class. Identify who's off-topic without leaving your desk.

Parents

Coming in Phase 2 — a read-only parent portal giving families direct visibility into their child's browsing on school devices.
