Daypart is the easiest way to schedule a small team — built for owners and managers who are done juggling spreadsheets, group texts, and screenshots. Answer the four questions that actually matter, fast: • Who's working? • Who's available? • What shifts are open? • What changed? WHAT YOU CAN DO • Build the week — create shifts on a clean day editor or a draggable week grid, then publish to the whole team at once. • Fill open shifts — post a shift and let staff claim it from their phone. • Handle swaps — employees request a trade; managers approve or deny with a full audit trail. • Time off — collect requests and approve them in a tap, with history kept. • Availability — everyone sets when they can work, so you schedule it right the first time. • Stay in sync — in-app alerts and push for new schedules, swaps, time-off decisions, and open shifts. Tap an alert to jump straight to it. MADE FOR SMALL BUSINESSES Bars and restaurants, cafés, food trucks, salons and barbershops, cleaning crews, retail shops, fitness studios, event staff, and small service teams. SCHEDULING WITHOUT THE HR BLOAT The big platforms bundle scheduling with payroll, hiring, onboarding, and compliance. Daypart does one thing well: get the schedule built, filled, and out to your team — simply. PLANS Start free with one location and up to five teammates. Upgrade to Team for shift swaps, time-off approvals, multiple managers, and role colors. Business adds more locations and CSV/payroll exports. Pairs with the Daypart web dashboard for owners and admins.
