From hourly rates to monthly budgets, everything is calculated automatically — helping you stay on budget and reduce overspending.

Complete Control

Plan workforce costs accurately with clear budget visibility. Make confident staffing decisions based on your real data.

What's new

Check in with confidence — and handle leave the right way

Use the shared kiosk with camera-based Face ID: staff enrol once, then scan to verify before clocking in or out. Pair that with clearer leave on the schedule and in manual hours, plus an account time zone so dates and rosters line up with where you work.

  • Kiosk Face IDEnrol a face profile, then tap Scan to detect at the kiosk. We match the live scan, show a quick confirmation, and only then record the punch — so the right person is always on the clock.
  • Paid & unpaid leaveTag manual time entries and schedule shifts as paid or unpaid leave. Approvals flow into payroll with the correct treatment for hours and leave.
  • Time zone awareSet your organisation's time zone so schedules, dates, and reporting stay consistent for your whole team.
