Shift scheduling software for SMB hourly teams
Shiftura is shift scheduling software built around a clean shift swap workflow: an employee offers a shift, a coworker claims it, and you approve. The schedule updates automatically and everyone gets notified.

Shiftura is built for SMB hourly teams where schedules change often. Employees handle swap requests, managers stay in control with approvals, and you get scheduling, availability, and fairness visibility in one place.
Approve swaps in one tap (or auto‑approve rules) and keep a single source of truth for coverage.
Offer shifts, claim shifts, and see updates immediately—without chasing managers in group texts.
Get visibility into fairness (hours/weekends/nights) and reduce schedule drama with clear data.
Employees do the coordination. You stay in control and only approve what you want.
They open Shiftura and offer the shift to the team in seconds.
They claim the shift and you get notified (no chasing, no thread chaos).
One tap and the schedule updates automatically. Everyone gets notified.
Scheduling, availability, notifications, and fairness—designed for small teams that move fast.
Build a schedule, publish it, and notify the team automatically—no more “I didn’t know I worked.”
Employees submit availability and you see it while building schedules, so conflicts are easier to avoid.
Track distribution of hours, weekends, and nights so you can schedule more evenly and reduce resentment.
New schedule? Email. Swap approved? Email. Everyone stays in sync without extra work.
Whether swaps happen over text or inside a messy “request” process, approvals get missed and the schedule goes stale. Shiftura keeps one source of truth: offer → claim → approve → notify.
| What you need | Texts + spreadsheets | Shiftura |
|---|---|---|
| Employees can offer shifts and coworkers can claim them | Manual back-and-forth in group texts | Built‑in offer → claim flow |
| Manager control before the schedule changes | Easy to miss or forget approvals | Approve in one tap (or set rules) |
| Everyone gets the same update at the same time | People get left out of threads | Automatic notifications |
| Track fairness (hours/weekends/nights) | Hard to prove what’s fair | Manager fairness dashboard |
