Compliant time tracking — nothing for your employees to install
The biggest problem with traditional time-tracking systems is that they require installing an app on the employee's personal phone. Clockin.chat works via WhatsApp, which everyone already has.

Why traditional systems do not work
"I don't want to install a company app on my personal phone"
The most common objection. Completely understandable. With clockin.chat there is nothing new to install.
Union resistance to company apps on personal devices
In many sectors, workers or their representatives object to company apps on personal phones. WhatsApp is already there.
Time-tracking apps go out of date and need maintenance
WhatsApp updates itself. Our WhatsApp bot requires zero maintenance on your part.
