Worklytics and Larridin both measure how employees use AI at work. They collect data in different ways, so they answer different questions. Larridin installs a browser extension and a desktop app on employee computers, which lets it see AI tools by URL, including ones IT has not approved (source). Worklytics installs nothing on laptops: it connects to the admin APIs of your AI tools and of the systems where work happens (email, calendar, chat, code and HR), so it shows how AI use relates to meetings, focus time, collaboration and delivery.
This page compares the two using Larridin's own public pages, linked next to each claim, and says plainly where each one fits better. For other approaches, see Larridin alternatives.
| Worklytics | Larridin | |
|---|---|---|
| How data is collected | Read-only connections to the admin APIs of your AI tools and work systems. An optional proxy pseudonymizes data before it leaves your environment. | A browser extension and a desktop app, deployed centrally to employee computers (source). |
| Installed on employee devices | Nothing. | Browser extension and desktop app (source). |
| AI tools covered | ChatGPT Enterprise, Codex, Claude, Claude Code, Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, Gemini, Cursor and more: more than 15 AI tools with an admin or usage API. | AI tools used in the browser, detected by URL, including tools IT has not approved (source). |
| Unapproved (shadow) AI | Seen only when the tool has an admin or usage API. | Detected by URL in covered browsers (source). |
| Proficiency | AI fluency segments from how often and how deeply people use AI. Prompt and response text is never stored. | Offers proficiency scoring (source). |
| Work context | Email, calendar, chat, documents, code, Jira and HR data, with history, so AI use sits next to meetings, focus time, collaboration and delivery. | Not described on Larridin's FAQ beyond AI tool use. |
| AI cost | Usage-based cost for ChatGPT, Codex, Claude, Claude Code and Cursor, by team and per active user. | Spend intelligence from billing and usage data (source). |
| Phones and tablets | Included wherever the vendor's admin API records mobile use. | Computer-based; iOS is not covered and Android needs a device management proxy (source). |
| Hosting | Cloud, with the optional pseudonymizing proxy in your own environment. | Cloud, or on-premises on Dell or HP appliances (source). |

Larridin's FAQ describes a browser extension and a desktop app that IT deploys centrally (source). Because it sits in the browser, it can recognise AI tools by the sites people visit, whether or not the company has approved them. The same FAQ says coverage is computer-based: iOS devices are not covered, and Android needs a device management proxy. Larridin also offers an on-premises option on Dell or HP appliances.
Worklytics connects to the admin and usage APIs that AI vendors provide for enterprise customers, such as OpenAI's Enterprise Compliance and Analytics APIs, Anthropic's admin APIs and Microsoft's Copilot reports. It adds data from the systems where work happens: email, calendar, chat, documents, code repositories, Jira and your HR system. Nothing is installed on laptops or phones, and nothing is written back to your tools.
Personal identifiers are pseudonymized with SHA-256 before analysis, and results are only shown for groups above a minimum size. Prompt and response text is never stored. With the Worklytics proxy, pseudonymization happens before data leaves your environment.
No. Worklytics connects to admin and usage APIs only. There is no browser extension, desktop app or device agent.
Only for tools that have an admin or usage API Worklytics can connect to. Finding AI sites that IT has not approved needs a browser or endpoint agent, which is what Larridin uses.
Yes. Worklytics reports usage-based cost for ChatGPT, Codex, Claude, Claude Code and Cursor, by team and per active user, next to licensed seats. See AI spend tracking across tools.
More than 15, including ChatGPT Enterprise, Codex, Claude, Claude Code, Microsoft 365 Copilot, GitHub Copilot, Gemini and Cursor.
No. Prompt and response text is never stored. Worklytics keeps lightweight signals such as prompt length and task type, and reports results for groups, never individuals.
According to Larridin's FAQ, its coverage is computer-based: iOS is not covered, and Android coverage needs a device management proxy (source).
