Shyftly Payroll Prep
Get from worked shifts to payroll-ready exports without spreadsheet cleanup.
Shyftly Payroll Prep helps owners and managers review timesheets, catch missing punches, correct labor data, map payroll fields, and create cleaner export files for the payroll system they already use.

Timesheet approvals
Give managers a clean review step before payroll day.
Review worked hours, breaks, clock status, and shift corrections with role-aware controls.
Readiness checks
Know what blocks payroll before the export fails.
Surface missing punches, unapproved entries, stale data, and mapping gaps while there is still time to fix them.
Provider mapping
Prepare data for the payroll workflow you already run.
Map employee IDs, earning codes, locations, and departments for exports to payroll tools or CSV-based workflows.
Export history
Keep a defensible trail of what was sent and when.
Owners can see export history, readiness status, and the payroll period attached to each file.
Day one: CSV and QuickBooks
Prepare payroll-ready files without claiming to process payroll.
Shyftly tracks export schema, checksums, employee IDs, and pay-code mapping so Generic CSV and QuickBooks handoffs are ready before payroll day.
Coming soon: Gusto, Square, ADP, Paychex, Toast, Rippling
Use one Payroll Prep workflow even when the provider changes.
The app keeps the owner and manager workflow consistent while future adapters add deeper provider-specific handoffs behind the same approval flow.
1
Capture work
Schedules, clock-ins, clock-outs, and shift corrections become the payroll source data.
2
Review exceptions
Managers resolve missing punches, corrections, and approval blockers before the run closes.
3
Confirm readiness
Owners see whether the period is ready, blocked, or stale before generating the export.
4
Export cleanly
Generate payroll-ready files for provider handoff while keeping Shyftly out of tax and direct-deposit processing.
Clear boundary: Shyftly prepares payroll data; your payroll provider processes payroll.
Payroll Prep is designed for operators who want cleaner timesheets, fewer payroll-day surprises, and a better handoff to CSV and QuickBooks-first payroll workflows. Gusto, Square, ADP, Paychex, Toast, and Rippling are planned future adapters. Shyftly does not replace employer tax filing, benefits, direct deposit, or compliance obligations.
Shyftly Ops Intelligence
Turn schedules, payroll prep, Growth, and future POS data into workforce intelligence.
Ops Intelligence is the next layer inside Shyftly Ops: it helps owners see whether labor decisions are protecting revenue, reducing avoidable overtime, improving schedule quality, and supporting retention.

Analyze peak-period reliability, Growth score trends, recognition patterns, and readiness for expanded responsibility.
Retention Intelligence
Find whether people practices are improving store stability.
Look for connections between churn, missed shifts, kudos, coaching, promotions, and coverage quality.
POS Integration Path
Start with CSV, then integrate POS data where it matters.
Recommended path: manual sales upload first, Square sandbox next, and Toast POS coming soon for restaurants with Toast Analytics API access.
Available now
Manual sales CSV
Upload store sales by day, hour, daypart, and order volume so owners can prove sales-per-labor-hour and missed-peak coverage before any POS paperwork.
Sandbox-first path
Square POS
Square is the first integration path we are validating for sandbox sales, order, labor, location, and team-member facts behind the same Shyftly provider contract.
Partner-gated
Toast POS
Toast is positioned as coming soon for eligible restaurant and QSR teams with Toast Analytics API access. We do not sell Toast live sync until access, credentials, and reconciliation are validated.
Future support
Clover, Shopify POS, Lightspeed
Future POS providers plug into the same canonical facts contract, so the app keeps one setup and intelligence workflow even when the external system changes.
1
Upload sales CSV
Begin with daily sales by store, department, and time window so labor insights can prove value quickly.
2
Schedule import
Move from manual upload to scheduled POS imports once the customer sees which dashboards matter.
3
Sync POS
Connect approved POS providers for near real-time trend detection and peak coverage insights. Square is the first sandbox path; Toast requires eligible Toast Analytics API access.
4
Recommend action
Turn labor signals into owner and manager actions across scheduling, Growth, Payroll Prep, and retention.
Clear boundary: Ops Intelligence explains labor decisions; POS systems still process sales.
Shyftly should use sales data to show whether staffing choices protected revenue, reduced leakage, and improved retention. Square is the fastest sandbox candidate, while Toast is a coming-soon restaurant/QSR path for customers with Toast Analytics API access.
Coming to Pro Premium
Native SLM customized to your ops — not a generic cloud chatbot.
Shyftly Assistant brings LLM power to shift-based workforce operations: schedules, store coverage, payroll blockers, Growth signals, and labor intelligence — grounded in the Shyftly context you are already authorized to see.
On-device SLM · No cloud LLM APIs
A native small language model runs on your phone. Assistant inference stays on-device — not on Shyftly servers and not through OpenAI, Anthropic, or other third-party LLM providers.
- Customized to your stores, roles, and labor intelligence — not generic web answers
- Explains the screen you are on and ranks the safest next step
- Draft-first workflows — you review before anything saves or sends
- Native on-device SLMInstalled on your phone for Assistant inference — workflow AI built for ops, not a ChatGPT wrapper.
- No third-party LLM API callsYour Assistant prompts and responses are not sent to external LLM services.
- Ops context, not the open internetAnswers are grounded in authorized Shyftly summaries for schedules, payroll, Growth, and Ops Intelligence.
Mobile-first — Assistant runs in the iOS and Android apps, not on this marketing website. Read-only V1 explains local context; action execution after review is on the roadmap.
“How many employees across all stores?”
Ask Shyftly using labor and store intelligence you already have — scoped to authorized locations, with inference on your phone instead of a third-party cloud LLM.
Built for teams that are too busy for enterprise software.
Shyftly is strongest for owner-led teams with one to three locations today, and for early multi-location groups that need coverage discipline before heavier workforce systems.
- Replace shift chaos in group texts
- Give managers approval guardrails
- Turn retention into visible manager actions
- Prepare payroll exports without spreadsheet cleanup
- Keep costs lower than heavy workforce suites
- Connect labor, sales, and retention signals as integrations mature
Make the buying decision in one page
Most owners do not need a 40-minute demo to know if a scheduling tool is close. These are the decision points Shyftly is designed to clarify up front.
Current pain
Schedules, growth follow-ups, and payroll prep live in separate places.
Shyftly centralizes the weekly plan, availability changes, swaps, retention actions, and payroll readiness so managers stop rebuilding the truth every day.
Buyer fit
Great for daily workforce operations, not full HR transformation.
If benefits, tax filing, direct deposit, or mature real-time POS forecasting are the main problem, start with a suite. If scheduling, retention, payroll handoff chaos, and emerging labor intelligence are the problem, start here.
Value case
One avoided missed shift or payroll-day cleanup cycle can justify months of Pro.
For lean teams, the fastest ROI usually comes from fewer manager interruptions, faster swap approvals, fewer last-minute staffing gaps, and cleaner timesheet handoffs.
Sales path
Try scheduling, ask about Growth, Payroll Prep, Ops Intelligence, or Assistant.
The site should route buyers by urgency: self-serve trial for small teams, Growth fit check for retention pain, Payroll Prep demo for timesheet/export pain, Ops Intelligence for labor outcome questions, Assistant early access for Pro Premium interest, and enterprise for custom needs.
Built for shift-based teams across industries
The common thread is not one industry. It is teams that run on shifts, managers, availability, swaps, and last-minute coverage.
Restaurants
Coordinate sales floor, front desk, service counter, restaurant, delivery, or field coverage without spreadsheet drift.
Cafes & counter service
Handle availability, swaps, coverage gaps, and quick team updates from one simple workflow.
Retail-adjacent teams
Support convenience, service, and franchise teams that have similar shift coverage problems.
Compare Shyftly before the sales call
Use this section to decide whether Shyftly is the right-sized tool, or whether the buyer really needs a heavier workforce suite.
Choose Shyftly when
The core problem is daily workforce chaos.
Best for teams that need scheduling, availability, swaps, open shifts, approvals, Growth action loops, Payroll Prep, and manager visibility without a heavy rollout.
Choose a suite when
Payroll, HR, tax, or forecasting is the buying trigger.
If the buyer needs payroll processing, tax filing, benefits, compliance automation, deep labor forecasting, or HR records first, a full workforce suite may fit better.
Choose a free tool when
The schedule is simple and price is the only criterion.
Free tools can be enough for very simple teams. Shyftly should win when approvals, coverage, employee growth, payroll readiness, and owner visibility matter.
| Option | Best when | Pricing signal | Shyftly angle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shyftly | Shift-based teams need schedule clarity, coverage recovery, retention action loops, and payroll-ready timesheet handoffs. | Free tier; Pro intro $12.99/mo × 3 then $19.99/mo; Pro Premium intro $39.99/mo × 3 then $59.99/mo. | Lower-cost entry point across scheduling, Shyftly Growth, and Shyftly Payroll Prep. |
| 7shifts / Homebase | The buyer wants a suite with payroll, time clock, HR, and deeper back-office workflows. | Often location-based or user-based plans, commonly climbing into higher monthly costs as features expand. | Shyftly is a lighter starting point with scheduling, coverage, payroll prep, and export readiness before committing to a full workforce suite. |
| Deputy / When I Work | The team needs broad workforce scheduling across industries and is comfortable with per-user pricing. | Per-user pricing can scale with headcount. | Shyftly should win on workflow simplicity, multi-store affordability, retention visibility, and payroll handoff clarity. |
| Sling | The buyer mainly wants low-cost scheduling and team communication. | Strong free/low-cost entry tiers. | Shyftly needs to win on manager controls, coverage discipline, employee growth, Payroll Prep, and owner visibility. |
| TimeForge / Push | The business is ready for labor forecasting, payroll/HR operations, and more complex rollout. | Quote/package or employee-scaled pricing. | Shyftly can feed these systems with cleaner timesheets, payroll exports, and labor visibility. |
| AI / workflow assistance | The buyer wants help deciding what to do next inside scheduling, Growth, or payroll workflows. | Often cloud chatbots or add-on AI tiers. | Shyftly Assistant (coming soon): native on-device SLM customized to store and labor intelligence — no third-party LLM API calls, no server-side inference, explain and draft for review. |
Sales shortcut: ask what broke last week.
If the answer is missed coverage, slow swaps, manager text threads, payroll cleanup, or not knowing which employees need growth attention, Shyftly is worth a demo.
Competitive pricing changes often; use this as a buyer-friendly decision frame, not a legal pricing claim. If the buyer says "labor leakage," "missed peaks," or "sales per labor hour," route them to Ops Intelligence.
"Shyftly is for teams that do not need another giant system. They need tomorrow covered, swaps approved, employees growing, payroll ready, and every manager looking at the same plan."— Shyftly product thesis
How it works
Get from chaos to clarity across scheduling, retention, payroll handoff, and workforce intelligence.
Step 1
Plan and cover the week
Create store schedules, assign roles, publish shifts, and recover coverage without spreadsheet handoffs.
Step 2
Coach and grow the team
Turn recognition, skills, retention signals, and career milestones into manager actions employees can see.
Step 3
Prep payroll with confidence
Review timesheets, resolve blockers, confirm readiness, and export cleaner payroll-ready data.
Step 4
Connect labor to outcomes
Use Ops Intelligence to compare labor decisions, schedule quality, Growth signals, and future sales/POS data.
The sales story is simple: protect manager time, service coverage, employee retention, labor efficiency, and payroll day.
Shyftly should help buyers quantify the operational drag they already feel: late-night texts, missed availability updates, slow swap approvals, payroll cleanup, labor leakage, retention follow-up gaps, and owners asking every store for staffing status.
A good sales conversation starts with the number of locations, employees, weekly schedule changes, missed or at-risk shifts, payroll exceptions, and retention concerns. That tells us whether Shyftly is a quick fit or whether they need a heavier suite.
Decision shortcut
1 hour
If Shyftly saves a manager one hour of schedule chase, payroll cleanup, or retention follow-up each month, the Pro plan becomes easy to justify.

Sales FAQ
Answers for the questions most likely to slow down a buyer.
Is Shyftly replacing payroll?
No. Shyftly Payroll Prep helps teams review timesheets, resolve blockers, map payroll fields, and create payroll-ready exports. Your payroll provider still handles taxes, direct deposit, benefits, and compliance.
What does Payroll Prep include?
Timesheet review, missing-punch visibility, manager corrections, pay-period readiness checks, provider field mapping, export history, Generic CSV, and QuickBooks-first export workflows. Gusto, Square, ADP, Paychex, Toast, and Rippling are coming soon.
Who should request a demo instead of self-serving?
Teams with multiple locations, several managers, custom onboarding needs, or a current scheduling tool they want to replace should request a demo.
Why not use a free scheduler?
Free tools can be enough for simple schedules. Shyftly is for teams where coverage recovery, approvals, and owner visibility matter more than the lowest possible price.
Is Shyftly Growth just gamification?
No. Growth can use recognition and progress signals, but the buyer value is retention operations: helping managers coach, recognize, and create visible career paths for frontline teams.
What is Shyftly Ops Intelligence?
Ops Intelligence connects labor, schedule quality, payroll readiness, Growth signals, and future sales/POS data so owners can see whether staffing decisions are protecting revenue and improving retention.
What is Shyftly Assistant?
Shyftly Assistant is workflow AI for owners and managers on mobile, powered by a native on-device small language model (SLM) customized to your stores, schedules, payroll, Growth, and Ops Intelligence context. It explains what you are seeing, recommends the safest next step, and drafts follow-ups for review. Coming soon to Pro Premium — not a generic cloud chatbot.
Does Assistant send my data to ChatGPT or cloud LLMs?
No. Shyftly Assistant runs inference on a native SLM installed on your device. Your Assistant prompts and responses are not sent to OpenAI, Anthropic, or other third-party LLM providers, and Shyftly does not run Assistant inference on the server. Shyftly still uses its normal secure APIs to sync operational data you are authorized to see — that is separate from cloud LLM chat services.
Is Shyftly Assistant available on web?
No. Assistant is mobile-first by design. This website drives app downloads and demo requests; the operational assistant experience lives inside the iOS and Android apps.
What data helps us recommend the right plan?
Location count, employee count, current scheduling process, weekly shift-change volume, payroll exception volume, retention goals, whether sales CSV uploads are available, and whether payroll/POS integrations are required.
Start with the workforce pain you already have.
Invite managers, publish schedules, recover coverage, run Growth actions, prep payroll, and start connecting labor decisions to outcomes without waiting on a full back-office migration.
