Why apprentices switch

Keep hours safe, accurate, and ready to submit

Apprentices lose weeks of progress when paper binders go missing. This keeps every hour organized and exportable whenever you need proof.

Paper binders disappear

Keep every hour in one secure log and export it anytime you need a backup.

State categories change

Start with state + trade templates, then tweak categories if your board needs it.

Signatures get delayed

Collect a monthly journeyman sign-off on any device in minutes.

How it works

Three steps, done daily in minutes

The flow is built for job sites: quick entry, clear categories, and a monthly sign-off that keeps you compliant.

We load the category template your apprenticeship office expects.

Log hours daily

Sign + export
