I’m building a small app called UnbindShift for teams that work rotating shifts.
The problem I’m trying to solve is pretty simple: employees need an easy way to say when they’re available, and managers need to turn that into a schedule without endless messages, spreadsheets, or last-minute changes.
It’s still early, so I’m mostly trying to understand how different teams handle this today.
If you work shifts or manage a team, I’d be interested to know:
- How do you currently collect availability?
- What’s the most annoying part of creating the schedule?
- Are you using spreadsheets, WhatsApp, dedicated software, or something else?
I’ve also put up a small waitlist for anyone who wants to try it when it’s ready:
Any feedback is useful, especially if you think I’m solving the wrong problem.

Useful question to ask before building. From the owner side, is the pain mostly collecting availability, or the swaps and call-outs after the schedule is posted? Curious which one teams mention first.
