Overview

PulseShift is a mobile workforce scheduling solution designed for teams that need to coordinate people, time, and availability across dynamic operational environments. Built with Flutter, it provides a fast and intuitive experience for workers and managers, enabling real-time updates, automated shift assignments, and clear communication. The platform integrates an AI scheduling engine that analyzes team availability, constraints, and workload to generate optimal shift proposals — reducing planning time and improving fairness.

The Challenge

Fragmented shift management

Teams relied on WhatsApp messages, spreadsheets, and manual calls to coordinate availability.

Lack of transparency for workers

Employees struggled to keep track of assigned shifts, updates, and changes, leading to confusion.

High workload for schedulers

Managers spent hours balancing constraints, preferences, conflicts, and last-minute changes.

Need for real-time updates

Operational environments required instant sync across devices to avoid outdated schedules.

Our Solution

PulseShift provides a unified mobile platform for managing shift assignments, availability, and scheduling workflows — designed for clarity and operational reliability.

Availability & Shift Management

Workers can quickly set availability across days and time slots, while managers assign and adjust shifts with immediate feedback.

AI Scheduling Engine

The system generates optimal shift distributions based on availability, role requirements, conflicts, and fairness criteria. Schedulers can accept, refine, or regenerate proposals.

Real-Time Sync & Notifications

Changes to shifts propagate instantly across all users, with clear notifications and audit logs for transparency.
