How the “Cloud Worker” Keeps You Active (Even if Your Laptop Is Closed)

Idle Pilot runs a “cloud worker”: a headless browser session in a data center that logs into Slack as you.
This remote Slack session behaves like a quiet browser tab that stays open all day, even when your own devices are offline.

Slack sees this real, logged-in session and keeps your presence “active.” If Slack tries to mark you as away, Idle Pilot gently nudges it back to active during your scheduled hours. Because everything runs in the cloud, your laptop can be closed, asleep, or powered off.
