Today, in order.
Each worker sees their team's stops for the day in the order Dispatch set, one card per visit, with the customer, address, services, notes, and tap-to-navigate. Several services at one property: start once, finish once.
The crew app is the part of your software your employees actually touch, twenty times a day, in the sun, with one bar of signal. Shortcut gives every crew their day in order with directions, the gate code, and the notes; clocks the day with GPS at each punch; and queues every tap offline. The office side turns those punches into timesheets, payroll, and the real labor cost on every job.

The problem at five crews
With one crew, the owner is on the truck. With five, the questions start: did they go in the right order, how long were they at the Hendersons', why is Tuesday's payroll twelve hours over, and which of those hours was drive time. Crew management software has to answer those from what the crews already do, without asking them to do anything extra.
How Shortcut does it
Each worker sees their team's stops for the day in the order Dispatch set, one card per visit, with the customer, address, services, notes, and tap-to-navigate. Several services at one property: start once, finish once.
A satellite view, the property photo, the gate code in large type, pets, and the job description, before the crew walks up. The gate code is saved on the phone, so it shows without signal.
Starts with GPS, photos, notes, finishes, skips, chemical records, and clock punches queue on the phone and replay in order when the truck is back in service.
Clock in, unpaid break, resume, clock out, another shift. Location is captured at the moment of each punch, never continuously. Unpaid breaks are excluded from paid hours.
Review what everyone worked and correct what needs a second look; every correction carries a reason and stays in the history. Payroll exports and pay rates per employee are included.
Set wages and two questions in Costs. Each visit's labor is measured from punches, estimated from the service's time per stop, or unavailable, and labeled. Nothing is faked as a zero, and workers and customers never see wages or margins.

Pricing, switching, and what Shortcut does today, in plain words.
Yes. Starts, photos, notes, finishes, skips, and clock punches queue on the phone and replay in order when the connection returns. The gate code is saved with the day so it shows offline.
No. Location is captured at the moment of a punch or a Start, never continuously.
Yes. Every correction carries a reason and stays in the history, and a worker's own same-day changes are recorded too.

No. Wages, costs, and margins are internal-only and never shown to workers or customers.
Each worker picks English or Spanish.
Set wages and your loaded-rate questions in Costs. Each completed visit's labor is measured from punches or recorded times where they exist, estimated from the service's time per stop where they don't, and labeled either way. Job Costing shows the split.
Nothing per user. $180 per crew per month with unlimited users, the app, time clock, and timesheets included.
