Shift Coverage Check
In plain English
- What it does
- Reads your staff schedule and points out the four problems that cost money: a shift nobody is covering, someone drifting into overtime, a job only one person can do, and shifts too close together to be safe.
- Why it helps
- These are normally noticed on Friday — after the overtime is already owed or the shift already went uncovered. This finds them while you can still move someone.
- What you need
- Your schedule export: who works, what role, which day.
- How long
- About ten seconds. Nothing about your staff is uploaded anywhere.
For anyone who runs on a roster — senior living, clinics, restaurants, facilities, security. Drop your schedule export and see the four things that cost real money and nobody catches until Friday: a day a role isn't covered, someone quietly heading into overtime, a role only one person can fill, and turnarounds too short to be safe.
Nothing uploads. Staff schedules are personnel data. The analysis runs entirely in your browser — there is no server to send it to. Check the network tab: zero requests after load.
Works with most exports — it finds the date, name, role and time columns itself. Excel .xlsx files work directly (the busiest sheet is analyzed).
A recurring version reads next week's roster the moment it's published and flags these before they become someone's Saturday problem — that's Report Autopilot. Or start with a free 1-day demo on your real roster, keep it either way.
