Group 01 · Scheduling
The rota itself.
Companion
The scheduling itself is always mathematical, the AI never guesses a rota. The companion is the assistant on top: ask in plain English to adjust the rota, manage requests, or query anything, and it makes the change, runs the scheduler, and shows you the result. It teaches you as you go, so setup doubles as your tutorial.

PublishRota Generation
Hit generate. Shiftly builds a full week's rota in seconds, with every contracted hour met, every rule respected, and shifts distributed evenly across your team.
Manual Editing
The generated rota is your starting point, not your ceiling. Click any cell to add, edit, reassign, or remove a shift. Override the maths whenever the day demands it.
Fairness Rules
You decide what fair means for your team. Toggle rules on, set the thresholds, and Shiftly enforces them mathematically every time you generate.

Group 02 · Staff Management
Your team, one view.
Staff
Every staff member's contracted hours, role, and availability in one clean view. See whether your team can cover your shifts before you generate, not after.
Sarah Hutchinson · Availability
Availability Windows
Real life isn't AM and PM. School pickup at 3:15. The other job that finishes at 6. Set exact time windows per day per staff member, and the rota respects them.
Employee App
Staff get their own free app for iPhone and Android, with a web app for any other device. They see their rota, submit availability, and request time off from their phone.
Group 03 · Operations
Run the day, not the spreadsheet.
Reports
Total hours and labour cost, computed straight from your rota. Know what the week costs before it starts, and what the month ahead will cost, not when payroll lands.
Payroll
Every shift becomes pay automatically. Hourly, salaried, or annualised. Shiftly works out what each person is owed straight from the published rota.
Team Inbox
Every swap, day off, and availability change in one place, pre-checked against your rules. Tap yes if it works. Tap no if it doesn't. The maths is done before you decide.
Holiday allowance · 2026
daysHolidays & Sick
Set a holiday allowance once and Shiftly tracks it per person, prorated for part-timers. Sick days too. Everyone sees what they have left, and you get a nudge before the year turns over.
