Everything a shift rota needs
Build the rota in minutes
Drag shifts onto a weekly board, copy last week, or start from a saved template.
Working-time rules built in
Warns you about double-bookings, too little rest between shifts, too many hours a week and too many days in a row — before you publish.
Swaps and cover, handled
Staff request swaps or pick up open shifts; you approve with one tap.
Holiday without the spreadsheet
Live allowance balances, carry-over and limits on how many people are off at once.
Clock in and out
Location-checked clock-ins so you know who is actually on site.
Everyone in the right order
Rank staff by position so the rota always reads the way your team works.
Hours, cost and payroll
Attendance reports, labour cost tracking, and CSV exports you can map to your payroll provider's own column names.
Live in about 10 minutes
No setup call, no implementation fee, no data migration project.

Built by people who've run shift teams
This started as a rota for one workplace that was tired of a spreadsheet, a WhatsApp group and a printed sheet on the wall going out of date by Tuesday. Every feature here exists because a real manager or a real member of staff asked for it — the swap requests, the holiday balances, the clock-in checks and the working-time warnings all came out of the shifts we were actually trying to cover.
We're in open beta, so we're honest about it: we'd rather show you the product and let you judge it than borrow logos we haven't earned. Try it on next week's rota and tell us what's missing — we reply to every message.
Simple pricing
No per-seat pricing, no lock-in, no per-feature upsells and no card needed to start — unlike most rota tools, growing your team never grows the bill.

Common questions
- How do I create a work rota?
- Add your team, set their usual hours, then build the week on the schedule board. Save it as a template and copy it forward each week.
- Can staff request changes?
- Yes. Staff can request time off, a day off, a shift change or a swap with a colleague. Managers approve or decline, and everyone is notified.
- How do staff get the rota?
- Publish it and email every member of staff their own shifts, or let them check the app on their phone.
- What happens when the beta ends?
- You'll get plenty of notice before any paid plan starts, and nothing switches off without warning. If you decide not to continue, you can export your rotas, staff list, hours and attendance to CSV and take them with you.
- Is there a limit on team size?
- No. Unlimited staff and unlimited rotas, and no per-seat charge — adding someone to the team never costs more.
- Does it work with my payroll system?
- Yes. Hours, overtime and labour cost export to CSV with a mapping you control, so you can match the column names your payroll provider expects — Xero, Sage, QuickBooks, BrightPay or anything else that takes a CSV. There's also a signed webhook if you want to push pay periods automatically.
