AI-drafted · Compliance-checked · Mobile-first · UAE Labour Law-aligned · Free up to 25 staff

Most rosters are drafted in Excel. Most should not be.

An Excel roster gets you the grid. It doesn't tell you whether the cover is available, whether the swap breaches a rest rule, whether mandatory prayer break is respected, or whether the 1 AM shift change exceeds the worker's daily limit. Shift management software should do that work for you, and surface the answer before you have to ask the question. Aiya drafts rosters from a plain-English description, runs the UAE Labour Law check on every change, and shows the live coverage board your site supervisor needs at the start of every shift.

AI-drafted weekly grid

Describe the shift in plain English. AI proposes the roster. Manager edits or approves with one tap.

Day / evening / night rotations

Rotating patterns, 12-hour posts, split shifts, hybrid schedules — all handled with mandatory rest and overtime caps applied.

UAE Labour Law check built in

Daily limits, mandatory rest between shifts, prayer break, lunch, overtime caps per Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021.

Swaps with compliance check

Staff request swaps from their phone. AI confirms the replacement is available and the swap won't breach rest rules. Manager approves with one tap.

Live coverage dashboard

Who is on each post right now. Uncovered posts and missed check-ins surface to the supervisor immediately.

Multi-site, multi-supervisor

One platform across every operational unit. Central operations sees all; each site lead sees only their own.

Mobile-first for staff

Staff see their roster, request swaps, and check in from their phones. No login portal.

Audit-ready records

Every change to the roster, every swap, every approval — recorded in a tamper-resistant audit log.

Built around UAE compliance, not adapted to it

UAE Labour Law working hours (per Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021)

Daily limits, weekly rest, mandatory rest between shifts, prayer break, lunch, and overtime caps configurable per site, aligned with Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021.

Audit-ready change log

Every roster change, swap approval, and rule override is recorded with who, when, and why. Retained for the legal period.

No silent overrides

Hard rule breaches require explicit override by an authorised role; soft breaches are recorded but allowed.

Multi-site data isolation

Per-tenant separation. Each site lead sees only their own roster and staff.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI publish rosters on its own?
No. AI drafts the roster from your description; a human manager edits or approves with one tap. No black-box automation publishes a shift without a person involved.
How does it handle Ramadan and reduced working hours?
Working-hour rules are configurable per period. Reduced Ramadan hours can be applied across the period and revert automatically.
Can it handle 12-hour security shifts and clinical 24×7 rotations?
Yes — both are first-class patterns. Rotating day/evening/night with handover windows, mandatory rest, and overtime caps applied automatically.
What about prayer breaks?
Prayer break is excluded from billable hours and respected as a mandatory rest window in the schedule check. Times configurable per site or per period.
Is there a free tier?
Yes — free up to 25 staff with the full feature set. Growth: AED 8/staff/month from staff 26+. Enterprise: custom (adds payroll + GPSSA + WPS file).
