Schedules that can't play favorites.

EvenShift is a weekly staff-scheduling app for restaurants, bars, cafés, salons, and spas that puts fairness first. It builds the week from your team's availability, never schedules anyone over a requested day off, attaches a plain-language reason to every shift, and proves the week is fair with a visible fairness score.

Most scheduling tools optimize the owner's labor cost. EvenShift optimizes fairness to the worker — and proves it. Every generated schedule shows a fairness score, the hours gap between teammates, and the reason behind every shift, so favoritism has nowhere to hide.

Solo is CA$89 per month (or CA$890 per year) for one location with up to 50 staff. Two locations are CA$169 per month (CA$1,690 per year) and three locations are CA$239 per month (CA$2,390 per year), each with up to 150 staff per location and the cross-location roll-up view. Four or more locations are custom-priced. Customers outside Canada pay the same numbers in USD. Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial — no credit card required, and the fairness features are never paywalled.

Yes. Shifts can cross midnight — a 5:00 PM to 2:00 AM close is a first-class shift with correctly counted hours. Each venue also chooses its dayparts (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and sets real start and end times per shift.

Yes. EvenShift is fully bilingual in English and Quebec French (déjeuner, dîner, souper — the way Quebec restaurants actually talk), and anyone can switch language with one tap.

Correct — it's a hard rule in the scheduling engine, not a preference. Automatic generation never assigns anyone to a day they requested off. If a shift can't be covered without doing so, it's left open and flagged for the manager. Only an explicit manager action can override a day off, and it's logged with a reason.

Yes. Workers see open shifts that match their position and availability, and can request to pick them up. The manager approves with one tap and the schedule updates instantly.

No. EvenShift works for any business that schedules hourly staff week by week — restaurants, bars, cafés, salons, spas, and more. Each business type gets its own positions (stylists, colorists, estheticians, and receptionists for salons; servers, cooks, and bartenders for restaurants) and its own way of dividing the day (morning, afternoon, evening — or breakfast, lunch, dinner).

Yes — one tap. Every person gets a private calendar feed: on iPhone it opens directly in the Calendar app as a subscription, and there's an equivalent one-tap link for Google Calendar (plus a copyable link for Outlook and other apps). Because it's a live subscription, newly published weeks appear in the phone's calendar automatically — no re-exporting. Managers can subscribe too and see every published shift at their venue.

Managers fix a single day without touching the rest of the week. Tap the shift, and EvenShift suggests eligible teammates ordered by fairness — people who asked for more hours and have the fewest so far come first, and nobody on a requested day off is ever offered. Ask one person, or ask everyone at once where the first yes wins. The teammate answers on their phone; declining requires a short reason the manager can see. If a manager assigns someone anyway after a decline, the shift says so openly.

Yes. Every workplace gets a team chat with an org-wide channel, member-created groups, reactions, and GIFs. There are no hidden conversations: managers can view every channel, and every group states that plainly — the same honesty EvenShift applies to schedules.

Yes. Import your daily sales history — a CSV export from any POS (Square, Toast, Lightspeed, Clover) — or log sales as you go, and every new schedule shows your average staffing, last year's same week, and a projected demand for each day. One tap staffs the week to match, and every number stays editable. Projections only decide how many people you need; the fairness engine still decides who works.

Yes. The Insights page shows your labor cost against logged sales as a labor % for every published week, plus your fairness score over time and hours per person. Managers get a Monday email recapping the closed week, can print any week for the kitchen wall, and can export payroll-ready hours (person, hours, rate, pay) as a CSV for any date range.
