Everything in Essentials and:
AI-powered features are designed for professional use. See our Fair Use Policy for details.
Receive a 30-day free trial automatically when selecting the Pro plan. You provide payment details at checkout, but you will not be charged for that 30-day period.
It is a spreadsheet-native editing experience. Keyboard bindings let you navigate, copy, paste, and edit schedules without using a mouse, and every rota can be edited in three views: the familiar grid, a Kanban view where each shift is a card you drag between people and days, and a Day view that lays one day out on an hourly timeline. Your chosen view is remembered across your rotas and devices.
They are automated compliance checks that run while you schedule. Darouta proactively flags operational risks like insufficient daily rest between shifts, missing mandatory breaks, and weekly working hour limits before you publish a rota. Please note that these automated checks are provided for operational guidance and do not constitute legal advice.
They are secure, read-only web views of your published schedule. You can distribute them to your staff via direct links, dynamic routing, or QR codes, while keeping sensitive employee records private.
It is a Pro feature that extracts rota data from your existing Excel files, CSVs, PDFs, and images. The parsed data enters a safe review step so you can validate assignments before merging them into your workspace.
It is a text interface that translates normal sentences into precise schedule assignments. For example, typing "Alice 9-5 on Monday" directly creates the corresponding shift on the rota.
Venues are distinct physical locations managed within a single workspace. Essentials uses one active venue, while Pro unlocks multiple active venues for multi-site operations without splitting work across separate accounts.
Departments are Pro-only logical groups used to segment your schedules and staff into specific operational units, such as Front of House or Kitchen, making filtering and targeted communication easier.
Multiple authorized managers can build and modify the same schedule simultaneously. The interface synchronizes changes instantly across all devices, preventing data conflicts without locking you out of the file.
It is an authorization system that lets you precisely limit administrative privileges. You can grant different levels of access (such as read, write, or manage) to a specific venue, department, or individual schedule, rather than giving managers full workspace control.
They are alerts designed to keep staff updated when a schedule changes. Notifications are sent automatically by email when enabled, and employees can manage their own notification preferences or unsubscribe directly from those emails.
