A practical weekly rhythm
Keep the spreadsheet.
Lose the scattered checks.
A rota on one tab, leave in another file, costs on a calculator: it’s easy to miss a change. Pro brings the manual planning process together. It calculates and flags; you still decide who works when.

Team schedule

12 sheets. Each with a job to do.
From the team schedule to the review queue, hours and cost estimates stay linked to the shifts you enter. This is Pro’s sheet list, not the free Lite tour.

10
Employees
Enter up to 100 people, roles and current hourly rates.
11
Shifts
Enter up to 3,000 shift rows, with unpaid breaks and planned/actual times.
12
PTO ledger
Track up to 1,000 records and approved time off.
Know the limits before you plan.
- Employee slots per file
- 100
- Shift rows per file
- 3,000
- PTO records per file
- 1,000
- Date window per file
- 12 months
The 12-month window is a date range, not unlimited scheduling. 3,000 rows are not enough for 100 employees working throughout a year. Stay within the limits and use separate files when needed. Each employee can have one shift per start date, with overnight shifts under 24 hours and unpaid breaks.
Useful checks. Clear boundaries.
Hours & cost
Compare planned and actual weekly hours and costs against a weekly budget. Overtime is the greater of weekly excess or summed daily excess when the optional daily threshold is enabled—not both added together.
People & leave
Use the approved PTO ledger and review overlap, duplicate and leave warnings. Pro helps you review your manual schedule; it does not automatically assign staff or resolve conflicts.
Role coverage
Check a role across a full interval. Coverage is not break-aware continuous coverage: manually check whether breaks leave a gap. Current employee rates also recalculate historical costs; save separate copies for prior rate records.
The Pro download

Intended for modern desktop Excel. Version-specific compatibility has not been independently verified here; check the final listing before purchase. No payroll, automatic scheduling or compliance certification.
For hands-on managers. Not every workflow.
A good fit if…
- You already plan hourly shifts in Excel and want linked hours, leave checks and weekly cost estimates.
- You manage a shop, restaurant, support team or other operation with a manual weekly scheduling process.
- You can review flagged issues, break coverage and local rules before sharing or paying staff.
- You prefer a one-time workbook purchase to a recurring software subscription.
Choose something else if…
- You need automatic scheduling, split shifts or multiple shifts per employee per start date.
- You need payroll, tax calculation, compliance certification or legally guaranteed overtime rules.
- Staff need a clock-in app, live shift swaps or automatic schedule distribution.
- You need break-aware continuous coverage, fixed historical rates or more than the per-file capacities.
Free Lite · available today
Try the basics before you buy.
The free starter has nine sheets, 15 staff slots and a two-week plan. The browser demo uses eight fictional people and Lite calculations—not the full Pro feature set. Lite uses weekly overtime and daily staff counts, not Pro’s daily overtime option or role/interval coverage.

Before you choose.
Can I buy Pro now?
Yes. Pro is sold and delivered through Whop, a digital-product checkout, for a one-time base price of $59 USD with no subscription. Any applicable tax or currency conversion is shown at checkout. The free Lite workbook and browser demo stay available.
Pro: can I schedule 100 employees for a full year?
Not necessarily. Each file has 100 employee slots, 3,000 shift rows and 1,000 PTO records within a 12-month date window. The date window is not a promise of enough shift rows for 100 people all year. Plan within the row limits and start a separate file when needed.
Pro: can I use overnight or split shifts?
Overnight shifts under 24 hours are supported, with unpaid breaks. For example, 22:00–06:00 minus 30 minutes is 7.5 paid hours. Pro supports one shift per employee per start date, not split shifts or multiple shifts for that employee on that start date.
Pro: how does overtime work?
Pro uses a weekly overtime threshold and an optional daily threshold. When daily overtime is enabled, overtime is the greater of weekly excess or summed daily excess, not the two added together. This is a configurable planning calculation, not a certification of local pay rules.
Pro: what does coverage check?
Coverage checks the required role and full interval. It is not break-aware continuous coverage: breaks can still leave a gap, so review break coverage manually. The review queue also flags overlap, duplicate and leave issues.
Pro: will changing rates affect earlier weeks?
Yes. Costs use the current rates in the employee directory, so changing a rate changes historical cost estimates too. Keep a separate saved copy when you need a record of the rates and costs used for an earlier plan.
Pro: what comes in the paid ZIP?
The paid ZIP includes blank and worked-example Excel files, an offline START-HERE.html hub, a full how-to, demo walkthrough, CSV import examples and weekly checklists. Delivery is through Whop after purchase. Extract the ZIP and open START-HERE.html.
Pro: what spreadsheet software do I need?
Plan to use modern desktop Excel. Compatibility with a particular Excel version, operating system or other spreadsheet app has not been independently verified here; check the final Whop listing's requirements before buying. Do not assume the browser demo proves workbook compatibility.
Lite: is the free starter a real Excel file?
Yes. Lite is a genuine .xlsx file with nine sheets, formulas, dropdowns and protected formula cells, with no macros. It supports 15 staff and a two-week plan. Lite is separate from the 12-sheet Pro workbook.
Lite: is the browser demo the full Pro workbook?
No. The free demo uses eight fictional employees and Lite calculations. It supports weekly overtime and daily staff counts, not Pro's optional daily overtime threshold or role/full-interval coverage. It keeps edits in this browser; resetting restores the sample.
Is this payroll or compliance software?
No. It is a planning tool. It doesn't run payroll, withhold tax or check labour law. Overtime, break and leave rules vary by location and contract, so check your own rules before paying anyone.
Where is my team data stored?
Workbook data stays in the files you save and share. The free demo stores edits locally in this browser and the free Lite file is generated on your device; team inputs are not uploaded to Intious. Whop handles paid checkout and file delivery.
Scheduling and planning only—not payroll, legal advice or compliance certification. Review your own overtime, break and leave rules. Read our terms and privacy policy.
