Powerful Features for Manufacturing Excellence

Attendance, labour, resources, expenses and documents in one place — and an AI integration that works with the assistant you already use.

Take a closer look

See how it works

Ask CrewPulse. Your AI does the rest.

Use the AI assistant you already pay for. Connect it to CrewPulse once, then ask in plain language: it answers from your live data and does the admin for you. No extra AI subscription needed.

  • Ask about projects, crews, hours, resources, expenses and documents
  • Let it log or correct time, set up projects and review expenses
  • It sees and does only what your CrewPulse role allows, or connect it read-only
  • Every change is recorded under your name
  • Works with your AI assistant once it’s connected

  1. You ask: “Which projects are we running?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: “Two: Smit Residence in Durbanville (3 jobs) and Van der Merwe Residence in Somerset West (3 jobs).”
  2. You ask: “Is the Hilux available?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: “Yes. The Toyota Hilux (CA 123-456) is free, and so are the Isuzu truck and the bridge saw.”
  3. You ask: “Any licences expiring this month?” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: “One: Thabo Mokoena's forklift operator licence expires in 7 days. A reminder has already gone out.”
  4. You ask: “Log 3 hours for Pieter Jacobs on the Smit scullery counter yesterday.” Your AI assistant answers from CrewPulse: “Done. 3 hours logged for Pieter Jacobs on Scullery Counter (Smit Residence), recorded under your name.”

Where CrewPulse works

Shop floor, remote site, or office

One system for the factory floor, crews on remote jobs, and the people reviewing costs at the office — with the features that matter in each place.

Shop floor

Factory & workshop

Shared kiosk stations where workers clock in, select jobs, and log labour — no personal phone required.

  • QR code scanning

Remote site

Field & off-site jobs

Crews on customer sites or away from the main facility stay connected and keep tracking when signal drops.

  • Site tracking
  • Offline functionality

Office

Supervisors & managers

Roll up labour and resource cost by job, project, and site — so margins are visible before a job closes.

  • Job cost reports
  • Real-time visibility
