My employees use ChatGPT but work is not getting finished faster
An AI-generated first draft may be quick while the complete task still takes too long. Employees may spend time reformulating a request, verifying claims or correcting an unsuitable answer. Start with the finished work and its acceptance criteria. Using ChatGPT does not by itself prove efficiency or inefficiency, and time spent in a browser cannot answer that question.

Define success before measuring AI-assisted work
Choose one repeatable task, such as drafting a standard customer reply or preparing an internal summary. Write down what makes the result acceptable: correct information, required details, appropriate tone and any necessary review. Agree who checks the result. A generated draft is an intermediate step, rather than a completed task simply because it contains many words.
Keep the comparison within a similar role and task category. An experienced specialist and a new employee may use the same tool differently. Also separate tasks where AI use is permitted from work containing information your company does not allow employees to submit to an external service. These rules belong in your company process; the activity dashboard does not enforce an AI-use policy.
Measure the complete effort, including verification
In your existing work log, record preparation, drafting, checking and corrections through final acceptance. Note whether an answer had to be rewritten or reopened. Where an agreed comparison is appropriate, review similar tasks completed with and without AI assistance. Keep the quality check consistent so a faster but incomplete result does not appear more efficient.
Treat a small before-and-after check as an initial management observation. Work complexity, employee experience and changing requirements may explain differences. The outcome measures and review log are manual or belong to your task system; Control Laboral App does not link application time to a customer task or calculate the quality of an AI response.
What research helps us ask
A customer-support study found gains varied with employee experience.
A knowledge-worker survey reports associations, not causal productivity effects.
The primary sources are linked below. Neither finding settles whether your own team should use ChatGPT for every task. Use your accepted-work criteria and a comparable review to decide where assistance helps and where additional training or a different process is needed.
Try a practical AI-work checklist
For a fictional example, a routine reply takes 25 minutes without AI. Another comparable reply takes 8 minutes to draft with AI and 22 minutes to verify and correct. Its total is 30 minutes. That observation suggests reviewing the drafting and checking process; it does not prove that AI is always slower. A different task or a better brief may lead to a different result.
- Choose one permitted task and define an acceptable result.
- Record total effort through review and corrections in your own work log.
- Compare similar tasks for the same role rather than unrelated employees.
- Note rejected answers, missing evidence and material corrections.
- Agree whether to improve instructions, add review guidance or change the task selected for AI.
Can the software identify ChatGPT use?
Control Laboral App provides Windows application activity and recorded working time. Individual activity records may also contain window titles or URLs when the installed client supplies them. Test the actual detail available in your setup. A Chrome process name alone cannot identify ChatGPT, and the current service should not be treated as a universal detector of AI use or all browser traffic.
The service does not provide a conversation viewer, automatic analysis of prompts or answers, AI-written text detection or response-quality assessment. Even a relevant title or URL does not establish what the employee accomplished. Review available information transparently with the employee and the agreed task outcome, rather than treating an application label as proof of misuse.
Check the fit for a Windows-team pilot
Send your country, team size, Windows setup and the question you want the pilot to answer. Specify which outcomes you will review separately. The current application interface is currently Spanish; email support is available in English. The subscription is EUR 4 per employee per month, excluding applicable taxes, with a 14-day trial without a card. A useful trial confirms what activity detail is actually available and whether it adds context to your existing work-review process.
Frequently asked questions
- Does ChatGPT automatically make employees less productive?
- No. Results depend on the task, employee experience, instructions and review required. Assess accepted work and total effort rather than assuming that all use helps or harms performance.
- Can I automatically detect every employee using ChatGPT?
- No. Available activity depends on the installed client and the information it supplies. A browser process alone is insufficient, and the product is not a universal AI-use detector.
- Can Control Laboral App calculate whether an AI answer is correct?
- No. The product does not offer a conversation viewer or automatically analyse prompts, answers or their correctness. Your team must check the deliverable against its agreed acceptance criteria.
