HourZen

HourZen runs the whole shift: staff join the team from their phone, clock in and out with a PIN, punches carry GPS location, and the owner gets a live dashboard plus a daily payroll report — hours, tips, and totals at a glance.

The problem

Tracking a crew on paper timesheets and memory: nobody knew who was actually on the clock, where a punch happened, or what payroll should be until someone sat down and did the math by hand.

The approach

Design the flow around a worker's real day — join once, punch with a PIN in seconds, no app-store install — and give the owner the truth in one place: live clock status, GPS-located punches, and payroll numbers that compute themselves.
