What is Rotageek?

Why choose Rotageek?
-
01
Rotas that start right.
Optimised auto-scheduling builds rotas around demand, budget, skills, availability and UK working-time rules, so managers refine a costed, compliant rota instead of filling a blank grid. Pets at Home builds rotas in as little as 10 minutes across 460+ stores, and Lush went from 2 to 3 hours per rota to 30 seconds.
-
02
Forecasts that read the signals.
Our AI forecasting combines sales and footfall with weather, local events and seasonality, so labour follows trade rather than last year’s rota. At Lush’s Birmingham flagship, staff costs fell 8% in a quarter and productivity rose 16% in one month, which was worth £83K in extra sales.
-
03
Made for managers on the floor.
A clear interface means fewer clicks for swaps, leave and live labour against forecast, so adoption happens in stores and sites, not only at head office. At Screwfix, more than 90% of colleagues installed the app on their own phones, and branch managers now spend more time serving customers.
-
04
Works with the systems you already have.
Rotageek is system-agnostic and integrates with your payroll, HR and point of sale, working with whichever partner you choose. You can fix scheduling without replacing platforms that already work, and at Pets at Home and Oseyo, timesheets flow straight into HR and payroll.
-
05
Rollouts that land, and partners after go-live.
We’re scheduling specialists who plan implementation around your trading calendar, with our team working alongside yours. Screwfix rolled out to 900+ stores in about seven months, and Lush onboarded 4,000 employees in a month. After launch we keep tuning forecasts and rules, so results keep improving.
-
06
Fairer shifts and happier teams.
Rotas respect availability, preferences and skills, and employees can check shifts, swaps and leave on their phones. Pets at Home has created 11.3m shifts and filled more than 85,000 gap shifts, and Dune has seen customer experience improve because its best-trained team members are more available.
