For managers
Coverage at a glance. Approval in a tap.
Build the schedule once
Manage shifts and skills — ShiftScout uses the required skill to determine who can see an open shift.
One inbox for every swap request
Every trade lands in one place, with the people, times, and role right there — approve or decline in a tap.
Nothing goes live without you
Employees can post and claim shifts freely, but the schedule itself only changes when a manager approves.
Invite the whole team with one link
No manual account creation — share an invite link and employees join themselves.

For employees
Your schedule, and a way out when life happens.
See your schedule anywhere
Your shifts, in one calendar, on your phone — always the current, manager-approved version.
Can't make a shift? Post it
Stuck in traffic or just can't work Saturday? Post the shift and move on — you don't have to find your own replacement.
Pick up extra hours
Browse open shifts from the marketplace and claim the ones that work for you.
Know when it's confirmed
A notification lets you know when a manager approves — no wondering if it actually went through.
Start to finish
From “who can cover me?” to covered — in four steps.
01
Post the shift
Can't make Saturday? Share the shift from your phone — teammates with the required skill get notified.
02
A teammate claims it
Anyone eligible can claim an open shift the moment they see it. The first to claim gets it — pending manager approval.
03
Manager approves
One tap from a manager finalizes the swap. Nothing changes on the real schedule until they say so — so there's always one source of truth.
04
Schedule updates
Once approved, the affected employees' schedules are updated in ShiftScout.
Employees get freedom. Managers keep control.
A group chat can't tell you who's actually qualified to cover a shift, and it definitely can't stop two people from “agreeing” to a swap the manager never signed off on. ShiftScout separates the two: employees post and claim shifts freely, the moment they need to — but the schedule itself only ever changes when a manager taps approve. Employees handle the swap request. Managers keep the final say.
