Spreadsheet chaos
One change means re-sending the whole sheet. Versions multiply. Someone always works off the old one.
Mobile-first shift scheduling
Scheduling that respects everyone's time.
Build the week's schedule in minutes. Let your team claim open shifts and swap from their phones. See every store in one place — without the spreadsheet.
Built for the small businesses QuickBooks already runs — no scheduling tool included.
A weekly schedule, built and claimed in real time.
The 6am text-message scramble
Spreadsheets weren't built for shifts.
No-shows & missed swaps
Swap requests live in group chats and get lost. A gap on Friday becomes a fire drill on Friday.
Multi-store blind spots
Run more than one location? There's no single view of who's covering what, where, this week.
Powered by AI · Beta
Just say what you need.
Get a schedule back.
Describe the week in plain English — roles, hours, time-off, who pairs well together. SamayShift AI drafts a full schedule in seconds, checks it for conflicts and coverage gaps, and explains its choices. Tweak by chatting, then publish.
- Conversational. "Cover Mon–Fri mornings with two baristas, give Sara weekends off."
- Conflict-aware. It won't double-book or break availability or labor rules.
- You stay in control. Every AI draft is a proposal — review, adjust, publish.
What you get
Everything the schedule needs.
Nothing it doesn't.
Drag-and-drop scheduling
Start from reusable weekly templates. Drop people into shifts, set required roles and headcount, and publish — draft to live in a couple of clicks.
Open shifts, claimed fairly
Post an open shift; the first eligible team member to claim it gets it. A real lock prevents double-booking.
Swaps & trades, with approval
Staff request swaps or put a shift up for grabs. Managers approve in one tap — no more lost group-chat threads.
An app your team will actually open
iOS and Android. Staff see their schedule, get push notifications, and pick up shifts from their pocket.
AI scheduling assistant
Describe the week in plain English and get a conflict-checked schedule back in seconds. Adjust by chatting, then publish.
Built for multi-store operators
Business Groups give franchise and multi-brand owners one view across every location — with cross-store conflict detection so the same person isn't booked in two places.
