See it in your industry

This is the real tool, live. Flip through industries and watch the board speak each one’s language — its own roles, areas and staff, not a one-size-fits-all template.

A live, read-only preview. The full board — unlimited staff & areas, printing, QR staff links and saving — is free on your account. .

How it works

Three steps, and your whole team is looking at the same board. Free to use — the AI is the only paid add-on.

1

Add your staff and areas

Build your roster once — your real roles, from servers and technicians to guards, drivers, stylists or nurses — and list the sections, routes, posts, zones, rooms or sites you cover. Industry templates get you started in seconds.

2

Tunza builds it — you approve

Upload or save the roster and Tunza pulls today’s scheduled staff onto the board, builds a balanced proposal for you to Apply, and pre-stages the next 24 hours. A call-out? One tap backfills the gap and can email the open shift to whoever’s free. Prefer hands-on? Tap any slot to assign manually.

3

Share — and let staff self-serve

Staff open a read-only link/QR to see the live board, claim open shifts, and request swaps or time off. You approve from your board; the app emails them the assignment and the decision. No passwords to hand out.

Meet Tunza — your AI Assignment Assistant

Tunza — Swahili for “to care for” — is the first assignment board AI that staffs the shift for you — then hand you the pen.

Open Tunza and just talk to it like you would a trusted shift coordinator:

  • “Build today’s assignment and balance it evenly.”
  • “Sam called out — cover their area.”
  • “Who’s overloaded right now?”

Drop in any roster — and it reads the names, creates the areas, balances the load across your whole team — in your industry’s own roles and area names — and proposes the board in seconds. It remembers your standing rules, watches the live board 24/7 and alerts you the moment an area is uncovered or someone is overloaded. Review and tap Apply — or flip on 🚀 Autopilot and Tunza manages the shift end-to-end on its own, with one-tap Undo. Drop in your employee work calendar once and Tunza builds every day’s assignment from it automatically — learning your unit’s patterns, patching call-outs without breaking the board, remembering every conversation, and sending staff their QR links on request. It speaks your industry’s language — and in healthcare, never touches patient information.

Built for the way a shift actually runs

Everything a shift manager needs — with an AI assistant doing the heavy lifting.

✨ Tunza — your 24/7 AI coordinator

Works the current shift and the next 24 hours. Upload or save a roster and Tunza pulls today’s scheduled people onto the board and builds a proposal for you to approve — then pre-stages every upcoming shift window from the same roster.

Smart, fair, continuous

The deterministic engine matches people to the right areas, keeps them on the areas they usually work (continuity), and spreads the load to protect against burnout — then hands you the pen to approve.

Coverage & instant backfill

One tap marks a call-out. Tunza removes them, back-fills the gap from the best available teammate, marks them off on the calendar, and can email the open shift to everyone who’s free.

Staff self-service

Staff see their schedule on a read-only link and claim open shifts in one tap, or request a swap or time off. You approve from a banner on your board — and the app emails them the decision automatically.

Notify by email & open-shift blasts

Email each person their assignment and the live-board link, or send an open shift to your whole team at once. Save contact info right in the roster — or copy the message and send it your way.

Live board, any device

Primary, support and lead lanes on every area, in your industry’s own words. Change one thing and every connected phone, tablet and desktop updates instantly.

Read-only staff link & QR

Share the board with your whole team by link or QR — read-only, no sign-in, auto-expiring, and resettable the moment you want it revoked.

Team accounts & invites

Invite managers with their own secure logins — no shared passwords. Owners control billing and members; managers run the boards.

Printable sheet + native apps

Print a clean daily sheet any time. Use Assign Smart in any browser, or download the app — shared links open right in it.

Built for any team that runs on shifts

If you assign people to shifts, jobs, sites, routes, posts or sections, Assign Smart is for you — from a restaurant floor and a warehouse dock to a security detail, a field-service route, a salon, an event crew, or a hospital unit.

Each industry gets its own vocabulary, roles and board layout — sections and stations for restaurants, zones and docks for warehouses, posts and patrols for security, routes for field service, rooms and halls for healthcare, and more. Tunza AI speaks your industry’s language.

Security you can explain to IT & compliance

Assign Smart holds only staffing information — your areas, staff names and assignments. It never touches your customers’ or clients’ data, and the AI can never change billing, passwords or accounts.

That small footprint is what makes it quick for IT and compliance to approve. In healthcare settings it stays out of patient-data scope by design.

Minimal data by design

We store only what a board needs: your areas, staff names and assignments. Nothing about your customers or clients — and, in healthcare, no patient information.

Encrypted in transit & at rest

Your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest using modern, industry-standard encryption. Passwords are stored only as one-way hashes and can never be read back.

Two-step sign-in

Sign-in can be confirmed with a one-time code, with trusted-device support so your team isn’t slowed down each shift.

Role-based access

Owners, managers and read-only staff views are separated. Staff links never grant edit rights, and each board is visible only to the organization that owns it.

Automatic backups

Encrypted backups run automatically, so your boards survive hardware failure or human error.

Accountability

Key actions are logged, so there’s always a clear record of who changed what.

Have a security or compliance question? — we’ll answer directly.

Frequently asked questions

The things managers and IT teams ask us most.

What is a shift assignment board?

A shift assignment board records which staff member is responsible for which jobs, sites, sections, rooms or areas during a given shift. Traditionally it lives on a dry-erase whiteboard or a printed sheet. Assign Smart turns it into a live digital board that updates on every phone the moment an assignment changes — for any industry, in your own words.

Is Assign Smart a scheduling system?

No. Scheduling decides who works which days and shifts, weeks in advance. Assign Smart handles what happens at the start of each shift: who covers which sections, routes, posts, rooms or areas today. It complements your scheduler rather than replacing it.

Is it really free?

Yes. Building and running assignments by hand is free forever — 5 boards, with unlimited staff, roles, areas and QR staff links, for any industry. Tunza AI (which builds and rebalances the board for you) is the only paid part, at a flat $79/mo. Every account gets the same 5 boards whether or not you subscribe; if you need more, ask from inside the app and we'll review it.

What data does Assign Smart store?

Only workflow information: your areas, staff names and assignments — nothing about your customers or clients. In healthcare settings it goes further and keeps patient information out entirely.

How do staff see the board?

You share a read-only link, usually as a QR code posted where the team gathers. Staff scan it and instantly see the live assignments — no account, no password, no app to download. Links expire automatically and you can reset them at any time.

How long does setup take?

Minutes. There is no hardware to buy and no integration work — use it in a browser, or download the app from the store. Pick your industry, add your staff and areas, and share the QR. Most teams are live on their first shift.

Does it work on any phone?

Yes. Assign Smart runs in any modern browser on phones, tablets and desktops, and there are apps in the stores if you prefer.

Can more than one manager use it?

Yes. Owners can invite managers, who get their own sign-in and can run the boards. Billing, member management and account deletion stay with the owner.

What happens to our data if we stop?

You can export your boards at any time. If you close your account, your data is retained so you can pick up where you left off if you return — or you can request a permanent erase, which removes everything with no recovery.

What is TukoCare, and how is it different from AssignMe?

TukoCare is our companion product for families, not facilities. Where AssignMe is the shift-assignment board for care teams inside a hospital, facility or agency, TukoCare lets a family see who is caring for a loved one at home — verified caregiver check-ins, daily care checklists, photo and note updates, private family messaging, and real-time alerts. Its AI writes each day’s summary, triages alerts so only what matters reaches you, answers questions from the care logs, spots worrying trends early, and even turns caregiver conversations into keepsake stories. The app is free forever; Tunza AI is free for 14 days, then $9.99/mo (Family) or $19.99/mo (Premium, full AI). It is family-owned and holds no facility or patient records. Explore TukoCare →
