Time off management software built for schedules, coverage, and real teams.
Shiftaro helps employees request time off from mobile while managers review balances, approvals, coverage impact, and schedule conflicts in one workflow. Keep PTO policies, time off balances, request history, and scheduling decisions connected before the absence creates a coverage problem.
Time off is not just an HR balance. It changes the schedule.
Employees need a simple way to request time off. Managers need to see whether the request creates a coverage problem before they approve it. Shiftaro keeps the request, balance, policy, approval, and schedule impact connected.
