PayDance turns working time into live earnings, making everyday progress a little more visible.
I m building it as a private, lightweight companion for workers not an attendance tracker or employee-monitoring tool.
As it grows, I d love to know what would make it more useful or motivating for you: deeper personalization, desktop widgets, weekly insights, more platforms, or something completely different?
Your ideas may help shape the next version of PayDance.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m an independent product manager and the maker of PayDance.
You can try PayDance here: official website 🚀
The idea came from a simple mismatch: salary shows up once a month, but the time and effort behind it happen every day. I wanted to make that value visible without building another time tracker, attendance system, or productivity scoreboard.
PayDance shows a live “earned today” amount based on your salary and actual working hours. 💸
It supports monthly, daily, and hourly pay, lunch breaks, custom workdays, and overnight shifts. The main dashboard shows your progress and time remaining, while Mini Mode keeps only the live amount in a quiet corner of your desktop.
I intentionally kept it local-first: no account, no cloud sync, no telemetry, and no salary data upload. 🔒
I’d love to hear whether the live earnings view feels motivating, useful, or distracting. Thanks for checking it out! ✨
One thing I’m trying to be careful about with PayDance is the product boundary. 🧭
It would be easy to turn something like this into a productivity tracker, habit system, or even an employee-monitoring tool. That’s not what I want it to become.
For me, PayDance should stay personal, lightweight, and private — a small companion that helps workers see the value of their own time, not a system that judges how they spend it. 🔒
