Approvals shouldn't take days
Email chains
Leave requests buried in email threads that get lost, forgotten, or delayed for days.
No audit trail
When disputes arise, there's no record of when requests were submitted, who approved them, or why they were rejected.
Manager bottleneck
A single manager on vacation means all pending requests are stuck until they return.
From request to approved in seconds
A streamlined workflow that respects everyone's time.
Employee submits request
Pick dates, select leave type, add an optional note. The request is routed to the right approver automatically.
Manager gets notified
The team approver receives an instant notification via email and in-app with all request details.
One-click approve or reject
Approve or reject with a single click. Add an optional reason for rejections. No forms to fill out.

Frequently asked questions
Can I set up multi-level approvals?
Requests are routed to the team's designated approver. For most companies, this single-level approval is sufficient and keeps the process fast.
What if my manager is on leave?
Admin users can approve requests for any team, ensuring requests aren't blocked when a manager is unavailable.
Can I approve from mobile?
Yes. The dashboard is fully responsive. Approve or reject from any device with a single tap.
Is there an approval history?
Yes. Every request has a complete history showing when it was submitted, who approved or rejected it, and any notes added.
