Whomsmall hourly-staffed businesses (5–50 employees) in service sectors

The Pitch

Idea Description

ShiftSync is a lightweight scheduling and shift-swap platform for small service businesses (cafés, cleaning, retail) that solves chronic understaffing and manual rota work. Managers get automated compliance-aware schedules, simple shift-swaps, and overtime controls; workers get instant swap offers, paycheck estimates, and availability matching. The product integrates with payroll exports and local labor rules to reduce admin overhead and late-night calls. We launch in Norway with templates for local rules then expand via localized rule-packs to other EU markets.

The Edge

Differentiator

Localized labor-rule packs and ultra-simple mobile-first UX tailored to SMB admin bandwidth make it hard for large incumbents to compete on price and onboarding speed.
