Built for the person making the rota

One job, without the HR system.

Shift in 5 is designed for supervisors who need a usable schedule now—not another platform to configure.

01

Explain it naturally

Write who is available, who cannot work nights, how many people each shift needs, and what should be kept fair.

02

Check the rules first

Review the people, dates, hard constraints, and preferences the system understood before any schedule is created.

03

Catch impossible requests

If the staffing requirements cannot be satisfied, the product explains the conflict instead of inventing a broken roster.

04

Send clear schedule cards

Download the master rota and a separate image for every employee, ready to share in the communication tool you already use.

Designed around the final handoff

One master schedule. One clear card per person.

The manager sees the full week. Each employee receives only the shifts that matter to them. No app installation and no new employee workflow.

Frequently asked

What Shift in 5 is—and is not.

Is this a full employee scheduling system?

No. It is a focused shift schedule generator. It does not replace payroll, attendance, time clocks, or HR software.

Do employees need accounts?

No. The planned output includes an overall staff schedule and individual schedule images that a manager can share directly.

What happens if the rules are impossible?

The validator identifies the staffing conflict and explains which requirement needs to change rather than returning an invalid schedule.

Is staff scheduling data stored permanently?

The product is being designed to minimize retention. Staff names and schedules will not be kept as a permanent employee database.
