Build the rota in your browser, send everyone a link to their own shifts, and watch the confirmations come back. No spreadsheet, no photos of paper in the group chat.
7 days free, no card. Then $29.99 a site per month.
Your rota online: every shift this week, and what's still short.
The spreadsheet works until someone changes it. Then everyone has a different copy, and Saturday finds the gap for you.
Not a spreadsheet on the office laptop, a photo in the group chat and a printout by the till — one page, always current, that everyone sees the same version of.
Swap someone onto Saturday and their link already shows it — and one button emails everyone whose shifts changed since you last told them. Nobody turns up to a shift that moved on a version they never saw.
Your team keep their own calendar of days off — or single shifts they can't do — so it's in front of you while you build the rota rather than arriving as a text afterwards.
Everyone answers yes, maybe or no to their shifts. A spreadsheet tells you who you wrote down; the rota online tells you who confirmed.
Managers on a laptop, staff on any phone with a browser. There's no app to install and nothing to update.
Online doesn't have to mean only online. Print the week by shift or by person for the staff room door — from the same rota, so the wall copy and the link can't disagree.
Each person gets a link to just their shifts — no login to remember, no scrolling through everyone else's week. They answer yes, maybe or no from the bus, and your coverage view updates while they do it.
When a shift goes short, it shows up for people who could cover it. They put themselves forward; you decide who's on. And the days they already told you they're away are days auto-fill won't put them on in the first place.
7 days free with everything working — your first rota takes about a minute. New to rotas? Here's how to make one.
