Deputy is workforce management software for shift-based businesses, covering scheduling, time and attendance, payroll integration, and wage and hour compliance, with hiring and onboarding tools in an HR add-on and industry solutions for restaurants and hospitality, healthcare clinics and medical practices, hotels and retail. Managers build schedules and let staff swap shifts or find replacements, and from the middle plan up Deputy can auto-schedule against demand forecasts that draw on sales data pulled from a connected point-of-sale system; staff clock in by mobile or kiosk, and by biometrics from the middle plan up, and digital timesheets are ready for payroll export. It automates compliance rules such as breaks, overtime, Fair Workweek and custom pay rules. Deputy AI, a conversational agent for admins and managers, creates and edits schedules, finds replacements, compares timesheets with the schedule and approves them, and it cannot publish a schedule or approve a timesheet without explicit confirmation. It integrates with point-of-sale systems such as Square and Clover and with payroll and accounting systems such as ADP, Gusto, Paychex and QuickBooks, and it is priced per user per month on three standard plans, with Deputy AI currently included free in every plan, a free trial, and add-ons that include payroll enabled by Paycor on annual plans above the entry tier in the US.
