## The panel's verdict

Beeple BV is employee-scheduling software aimed at larger staffing agencies with teams of more than 20 employees, and the bench's scores point to one clear strength: staff self-service, scored 4 by every judge, on a mobile app where employees enter available and unavailable times, recurring or by part of day, with employer approval. Roster planning runs from 2 to 4, credited for an automatic scheduling feature with its own downloadable manual, though the templates are Word documents and no page shows what drives a proposal. Payroll and integrations runs from 3 to 4, for structured Excel, XML and PDF exports carrying payroll-integration codes plus an API Partners program, though no payroll system is ever named. The floors are stark: no judge credited any working-time rule check, co-determination and privacy sits at 0 to 1, and sovereignty spans 0 to 2 — some judges credit only the vendor's European appearance, others score the silence on hosting, subprocessors and certifications at the floor. Beyond a free demo, no prices are published.

**Speaks for it:**
- Employees enter and update their own available and unavailable times in the app, recurring or by part of day.
- Automatic scheduling is documented with a downloadable user manual and video.
- Hours, enrolments, check-ins and payments export to Excel, XML or PDF from most pages.
- Payments and availabilities carry dedicated payroll-integration code fields.
- An API Partners program is available.

**Held against it:**
- The captured pages name no working-time rule the roster checks, from rest periods and daily-hour limits to Minijob and surcharge handling.
- We found no public information on staffing requirements per shift, qualifications or the demand source behind automatic scheduling.
- We found no public information on hosting region, subprocessors or certifications for employee data.
- We found no public information on who can see absence reasons, audit logging or retention periods that a works council could build an agreement from.
- No payroll system is named and no surcharge or wage-type mapping is documented, so exports still need manual mapping.

**Best for:**
- You run a staffing agency with more than 20 employees and your main scheduling pain is collecting availability from deskless staff.
- You want automatic scheduling proposals and templated work schedules rather than drawing rosters entirely by hand.
- Your payroll team can map export files itself, since data leaves as Excel, XML or PDF with payroll-integration codes rather than to a named system.

**Avoid if:**
- You need the scheduling tool itself to flag rest periods, daily-hour limits or surcharge rules before publishing a roster.
- You must win works-council approval and need vendor documentation on data visibility, logging and retention to do it.
- You need a named payroll or POS integration rather than generic export files.
- You require documented hosting and a published subprocessor list for employee data.

### The judges

- **The Shift Manager** (v1.0): Builds next week's roster for a restaurant or store on Thursday night and fields the sick calls on Saturday morning. Wants templates, qualifications that stop the wrong person landing on the till, open shifts staff can claim, and a rest period warning before publication rather than after the inspection.
- **The Operations Director** (v1.0): Answers for labour cost across thirty locations in retail, hospitality or care. Wants demand-based planning from real POS or occupancy data, labour cost against budget while the plan is still editable, and staff shared across sites. Reads "AI-powered scheduling" as a request to see the method.
- **The Payroll Officer** (v1.0): Turns the worked month into DATEV and answers for every surcharge. Cares about night, Sunday and holiday supplements from the Tarifvertrag, Minijob limits caught before the month closes, and corrections after the close. Treats "CSV export" as an admission that the handoff was never designed.
- **The Works Council Advocate** (v1.0): Co-determines how hours and overtime are distributed and how staff are monitored (BetrVG §87), and will not sign a works agreement for a system that watches more than it plans. Asks who sees absence reasons, what the app stores about location, what is logged and when it is deleted. Reads "performance insights" as a warning.
- **The Frontline Employee** (v1.0): Works part-time shifts next to a second job or a degree and never opens a laptop at work. Judges the product by its phone app: can she mark availability, swap a shift without three calls, see her hours, and read it in her own language. A roster she learns about from a photo in a group chat has failed.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has read a great many pages saying the product "supports" the Arbeitszeitgesetz and wants to know whether it blocks a violation, warns about it, or merely exports it. Reads for which tier the time clock and the DATEV export sit in, how seasonal staff are counted per employee, and what the forecasting "AI" actually uses as input.
