Frequently asked questions

Is the rota builder free?

Yes — it’s free for up to 10 people per event, with no credit card needed. Bigger teams are a one-time cost per event.

Can I create a rota across multiple days?

Yes. Build rotas for single-day, multi-day and overnight events, with separate shifts on each day.

Can it fill the rota automatically?

Yes. The auto-fill assigns available volunteers to open positions, and Shuffle reshuffles fairly — with rules for labels, shift limits, role variety and incompatible positions.

How do volunteers see the rota?

When you publish, each volunteer gets their own page and email showing their shifts. You can also share the full rota read-only.
