What it does

A full earnings tracker that fits in a glance.

Live clocking

Clock in, pause for breaks, and clock out — all from the menu bar. Paid time pauses while you step away and resumes the second you're back.

Earnings by the second

Your annual salary becomes an hourly and per-second rate. Watch today's pay climb in real time against your daily goal.

A tree that grows

Your shift is a seed that sprouts into a sapling, a young tree, and finally a full canopy as the workday fills out.

Private & local

Everything stays on your Mac in Application Support. Hide amounts at a glance and require authentication — no account, no cloud.

Breaks that count

Lunch and coffee breaks are tracked and excluded from paid time, so the number you see is the number you earned.

Set it once

Enter salary, weekly hours, workday length, and overtime multiplier. Nok handles the math from there.

How it works

Three steps, then it just runs.

  1. 01

    Set your salary

    Tell Nok your annual salary, weekly hours, and typical workday. It derives your hourly and per-second rate and a daily earnings goal.

  2. 02

    Clock in

    One click from the menu bar starts your shift. Pause whenever you take a break — paid time and earnings pause with you.

  3. 03

    Watch it grow

    Your earned total ticks up every second and the tree advances through five stages, so a glance tells you how the day is going.

The growth character

Your workday, growing in the corner of your eye.

Paid progress maps to five stages. You don't have to open anything — the shape of the tree tells you how far into the day you are.

Seed Your seed is starting the workday.
Sprout The sprout grows with every paid second.
Sapling Your sapling is taking shape.
Young tree The tree is filling out nicely.
Mature tree Your daily tree is nearly mature.

Why "Nok"

Named after an old word for a salary worth keeping.

Nok comes from nokbong (녹봉), an older Korean word for an official's salary or stipend. The whole app borrows that ledger spirit — aged paper, official ink, a seal-red stamp, and muted gold.

Nok is meant to be quiet, focused, and glanceable. It stays in the menu bar so it's there when you want it and invisible when you don't. No dashboards to check, no streaks to maintain — just an honest, living sense of what the day is worth.
