This draft stays in this browser tab until you close it.
Build one week here. Print it or save it as a PDF without an account.
Simple on purpose
Create it, handle it, share it.
Handle the change
A shift change or time off stays on that week. A draft stays private until you publish, so the team follows the finished schedule.
Share one schedule
Share a work schedule with a read-only link, or use a printable PDF with a QR code for the wall. People open the latest week instead of an emailed Excel file.
Why a small team uses Skeday
Employee scheduling for a small business starts with one week, not an account for every employee. A small frontline team marks the week, publishes once, and shares one current schedule.
No employee sign-in
Your employees open the shared link. They do not sign in.
No request queue
Days off stay on the week. There is no day-off request and no approval step.
Keep your chats
Talk where you already talk. The schedule the team follows is the one you publish.
Copy last week
Copy last week instead of duplicating a workbook tab.
Edit in one place
Edit the day here. The team does not receive the file.
One read-only link
One current schedule replaces the copied file and the chat message that may be old.
Wall PDF
A printable PDF whose QR code opens that same link.
Instead of Excel
Excel can hold a rota. Skeday keeps the week in one place: create it, change it, and share it.
Scheduling software for a small business
Skeday is employee scheduling software for one small frontline business. The employee scheduling app and the work schedule app are the same browser page. The team opens a link. Nobody installs a program.
Staff scheduling software here is the week you fill in. Shift scheduling software that assigns people by itself is a different product. You set the shifts you repeat, copy last week, and change the days that moved.
Restaurant scheduling software on this page is lunch and dinner for one team. Retail scheduling software is who opens, who closes, and who is off.
Questions managers ask
Do employees sign in?
No. They open the shared link. They do not get an account.
Is there an app to install?
No. The schedule opens in the browser.
Is Skeday an employee scheduling app?
It runs in the browser. Employees do not install it, and they do not sign in. They open the published link.
What does the staff scheduling software cover?
One company, up to 50 people, the shifts you repeat, copy last week, a private draft, one published link, and a PDF with a QR code.
Can a restaurant or a retail shop use it?
Yes. A restaurant week is lunch and dinner. A shop week is open, close, and who is off. Each is one team and one published link.
Can I print the week?
Yes. The wall PDF has a QR code that opens the same link.
What happens when I publish again?
The link the team already has shows the new week.
What does $9 a month cover?
$9 a month is for the whole team, not per person, after a 14-day trial with no card.
Give your team one schedule to follow.
Create the week, publish it, and stop passing an Excel file around.
