How it works

Chat it, see it, share it

Shiftly follows one simple path — describe your shop, generate a covered rota, then deliver diagrams and a recap your team can actually read. It is a scheduling tool: it never runs payroll or handles wages.

Describe

Tell it about your shop

Type your opening hours, team and shift rules in plain English, or use the builder. Shiftly reads who can do mornings, who’s till-trained, and how many hours each person can work.

  • Plain-language brief or structured builder
  • Availability, max days and max hours per person
  • Till-trained and rule flags

Generate

Get a covered rota with checks

Shiftly builds a weekly rota that fills every shift fairly, then checks for gaps, double-bookings, short rest intervals and overtime — so problems surface before the week starts.

  • Coverage gaps and understaffed shifts
  • Rest-interval and consecutive-day warnings
  • Overtime flags to confirm against your records

Diagrams and a weekly recap

Render the rota grid, coverage heatmap and hours summary as printable PNGs, export a timesheet CSV and rota PDF, and on Studio produce a short weekly recap video to share with the team.

  • Rota grid, heatmap and hours PNGs
  • Timesheet CSV and rota export

Built for more than one shop

Studio adds multiple shops and teams, shared workspaces, shift-swap notice animations and priority generation, so multi-site operators can keep every location covered from one place.
