Advanced scheduling for any business
Stop fixing time punches by hand. Every location on one schedule.
ShiftArc is an advanced scheduler and time clock for any business that runs on shifts — restaurants, retail, hotels, field crews, clinics, marinas. Coverage at a glance, open shifts staff can claim, geofenced punches and payroll-ready exports.
What we found in one four-site operation's data
ShiftArc exists to make every number above read zero — except the breaks.
Features
Built around the four things that actually go wrong
Every one of these started as a problem we hit while running the schedule ourselves.
Every location on one grid
Stop flipping between per-site views and fake duplicate employees. One weekly grid shows all your locations with coverage and labor hours per day — filter down when you want to, never because you have to.
One screen, every site. Gaps surface before the day starts.
A time clock that doesn't need fixing
Geofenced clock-in verified server-side, breaks tracked with one tap, and forgotten punches closed automatically overnight — flagged, never silently edited. The 86% hand-edit rate is the problem ShiftArc was built to end.
Location recorded, never used to block you. No GPS? You still clock in — it's just flagged for review.
Review exceptions, not everything
The timecard queue only shows punches that need a human: no break on a long shift, way over scheduled hours, still open from yesterday. Every fix requires a reason, so your audit trail writes itself.
Only exceptions ask for a human. Clean punches approve themselves.
Payroll-ready in two clicks
Lock a pay period and download Gusto or QuickBooks files with weekly overtime already split correctly. Locked means locked — nobody can quietly change hours after the file goes out.
