About the Platform

TIMY is a smart time and attendance tracking system that replaces outdated paper-based and Excel workflows. Outdated systems cost companies more than they think—manual data entry, payroll errors, buddy punching, and expensive administration. TIMY provides instant access to the exact number of hours for every employee, anytime and anywhere. Discover how TIMY can transform time and attendance tracking within your company.

Project

Problems, approach and results

Context

HR departments waste countless hours on outdated attendance systems. Manual data entry from notebooks to Excel, payroll errors from manual overtime calculations, and unreliable records due to buddy punching are everyday realities. Just 15 minutes of inaccurate tracking per employee daily can cost a company thousands of euros annually.

Challenges

  • Manual data entry: endless input from notebooks to Excel, wasting hours every month on basic administrative tasks
  • Payroll errors: manual calculations of overtime and night shifts inevitably lead to errors and employee dissatisfaction
  • Unreliable records: buddy punching and falsified arrival times are everyday realities with paper-based systems
  • Expensive administration: inaccurate tracking costs companies thousands of euros annually

Approach

We built TIMY to eliminate these pain points. Automated check-in and check-out recording with precise calculations, clear payroll-ready reports, and reduced administration. The system applies custom rules and generates accounting-ready files with a single click.

Results

  • Automated check-in and check-out recording with precise calculations
  • Clear, payroll-ready reports—no more manual calculations
  • Reduced administration, higher accuracy, and faster payroll processing
  • Instant access to exact working hours for every employee, anytime and anywhere
