Everything in one place

Time, schedules, payroll. No second tab needed.

One app does what most small teams stitch together with three. Built from the ground up for owners who'd rather be running their business.

One-tap clock in (from anywhere).

Open the app, tap once. GPS captured, geofences enforced, breaks tracked. Works in any phone browser on iOS and Android. Offline punches sync when connectivity returns.

Smart scheduling that actually flexes.

Build recurring templates, post open shifts, swap with one tap, detect conflicts before they happen. Employees confirm or decline shifts, with reminders for anyone who hasn't responded yet. Availability and PTO are baked into every assignment.

Alerts that nudge

Shift reminders, missed clock-out nudges, OT warnings, approval outcomes: push, email, in-app.

PTO & availability

Accruals, balances, requests, approvals. Plus weekly availability the scheduler respects.

Tasks & documents

Assign to-dos with due dates, priority, and a document link. Employees see what's on deck and tap once to mark it done. Notifications fire on assignment.

Workplace announcements

Pin notices to the dashboard. Read receipts, optional expiry, push + in-app delivery. The whole team sees it without another Slack channel.

Skills & certifications

Track licenses, food-handler cards, OSHA, CPR, whatever your team needs. Automatic alerts 30 days before anything expires.

Tips & labor budget

Daily tip entry by source with weekly totals. Set a labor target each week and watch projected vs actual cost in real time as you build the schedule.

The product

Designed for the person who actually clocks in.

The employee dashboard is the part of a time tracker that has to be perfect. Nothing fancy, just one giant button, today's hours, and what's coming next.

One unmissable button

The whole reason your team opens the app. Big, green, breathing. Nobody has ever asked us "how do I clock in?".

2

Today, at a glance

Hours so far, sessions, the next shift. No menus, no settings, no upsells. Just what they need to do their job.

3

Everything else, one tap away

Schedule, timesheet, open shifts, PTO, requests, availability: exactly where you'd expect, and named what you'd call it.

How it works

From sign-up to payroll in three short steps.

01

Invite your team

Drop in names and a phone number, or share an invite link. Roles, departments, and locations take a minute.

02

They clock in

One tap from the app, or a 4-digit PIN at the kiosk. GPS, breaks, overtime, and compliance happen on their own.

03

You run payroll

Review the week. Approve. Export to ADP, Gusto, or QuickBooks. Done in the time it took to read this card.

Payroll exports

Move approved time into payroll without retyping it.

Export payroll-ready CSV files formatted for ADP, Gusto, and QuickBooks, or use the universal CSV for another payroll system.

FAQ

Questions, answered plainly.

Real answers to the questions owners ask before switching. Still curious? Email us, a human replies.

Is ClockOut really free?

Yes. The Free plan covers up to 2 employees forever, with no credit card required. Upgrade to Starter ($3/employee/month) when you grow past two, or to Pro ($5) when you need payroll runs and the compliance engine.

How does the GPS / geofence time clock work?

Employees clock in from the ClockOut app. We capture their coordinates and check them against the geofences you draw around each location. Out-of-bounds clock-ins are blocked or flagged, depending on your settings.

What if my team doesn't have phones?

Use kiosk mode. Mount any tablet at the door, post the kiosk URL, and employees clock in with a 4-digit PIN. No logins, no app installs, no personal devices required.

Can I export payroll to ADP, Gusto, or QuickBooks?

Yes. ClockOut produces payroll-ready CSV files in formats accepted by ADP, Gusto, QuickBooks, and most other major payroll providers. Generic CSV is also available for anything else.

Does it handle overtime and meal-break compliance?

Yes. Configure daily and weekly OT thresholds, mandatory meal periods, rest breaks, and max consecutive days. Violations show up in the Exception Inbox automatically.

How long does setup take?

About a minute. Sign up, name your locations, send invite links to your team, and you're tracking time. Most owners we talk to are running their first payroll within a week.

Is there a mobile app?

Yes, installable from the web on iOS and Android (PWA), no app store download. Push notifications work, and a clock-in or clock-out tapped without signal is saved on the phone and syncs when you reconnect.

Is ClockOut a punch clock app or time clock software?

Both describe the same product. ClockOut works as a timeclock app on each employee's phone, a clock in app for work with GPS-stamped punches, and time clock software for managers who review timesheets and export payroll.

Can ClockOut handle multiple locations?

Yes. Locations have their own geofences, schedules, managers, and rules. The owner sees everything; managers see what's scoped to them.

Track time properly. Starting now.

No credit card. No sales call. No 14-day cliff. Free up to 2 employees, forever.
