XeroThe way most small businesses handle leave is broken.
Not because founders are disorganised. But because no one builds tools for this problem at your scale.
The Endless Email Thread
Someone requests a week off. You reply. They reply. Someone else needs the same days. Now you're managing a thread, a spreadsheet, and a calendar, all separately.
No Single Source of Truth
Who approved what? When does Jordan's PTO reset? Is anyone covering Thursday? The answer is always "let me check," and the check takes 10 minutes you don't have.
Surprise Absences
You find out someone's off when they don't show up to the standup. The request got buried in Slack three weeks ago and nobody followed up.
The Manual Timesheet Nightmare
Chasing employees for their hours every week. Manual entries riddled with errors. No visibility into overtime until it's already blown the budget.
Three steps. Zero spreadsheets.
TimeLeaf fits into how your team already works. No new habits required.
Employees Clock In & Request Leave
From Slack, Teams, or the TimeLeaf app. Clock in, log hours, or request time off in under a minute. Balances and timesheets are always up to date.
Smart Approval Routing
Leave requests and timesheets go to the right person automatically. Approve or decline in one click, directly from Slack or email.
Everyone Stays in Sync
Approved leave syncs to Google Calendar or Outlook. Timesheets feed into reports automatically. No manual updates. No surprises.
Everything you actually need. Nothing you don't.
Built lean for small businesses, not retrofitted from an enterprise HR suite.
Dynamic Approval Flows
Set up who approves what, and when. Requests route to the right manager automatically, even as your team structure changes.
Live Team Calendar
See who's in, who's out, and what's coming up in one shared view. Synced directly with Google Calendar and Outlook.
Leave Balance Tracking
Accruals, rollovers, and custom leave types tracked automatically. Employees always know where they stand before they ask.
Slack & Teams Integration
Request and approve leave without leaving your existing workflow. TimeLeaf lives where your team already works.
Time Tracking
Clock in and out, log manual entries, and submit weekly timesheets. All with manager approval built in.
Overtime Management
Configurable overtime policies with automatic detection and compliance alerts. Know before hours get out of hand.
Custom Leave Policies
PTO, sick leave, parental leave, unpaid leave. Build the policies that match your business, not a generic template.
Absence Alerts
Get a heads-up before a gap appears in your team coverage. No more finding out someone's off on the morning it happens.
Shift Scheduling
Create shift templates, assign schedules, and manage recurring patterns. When someone requests leave, TimeLeaf flags shift conflicts automatically.
Contracts & E-Signatures
Generate employment contracts from templates with 40+ auto-filled fields. Send for e-signature, track status, and store signed copies.
Time Bank
Overtime hours accrue into a time bank with configurable multipliers. Employees can use banked time for future leave.
Blackout Periods
Block leave requests during peak seasons or critical periods. Set exceptions per employee and let managers override when needed.
GDPR Compliance
Built-in data export, deletion requests, and consent management. Your employees' data is handled responsibly, and you can prove it.
Backup & Restore
Scheduled backups to S3, Azure Blob, or Google Cloud Storage. Configurable retention policies. Restore any time with one click.
Webhooks & API
Build custom integrations with our REST API and outbound webhooks. Export timesheets to QuickBooks or Xero with one click.
Directory Sync
Connect Azure AD or Google Workspace to automatically sync employees, teams, and org structure. New hires appear without manual entry.
Plugs into your stack in minutes.
Messaging, calendars, and payroll. TimeLeaf connects to the tools your team already uses. No double entry. No extra apps.
Slack

Google Calendar
Approved leave automatically blocks time and appears across your whole team's calendar. No copy-paste, no manual entries.
Google Chat

Questions we get a lot.
Everything you need to know before getting started.
QHow is this different from a shared Google Sheet?
A spreadsheet doesn't send notifications, route to approvers, track accruals, or sync to calendars automatically. TimeLeaf does all of that, starting at $35/month.
QWe're a small team. Is this overkill for us?
TimeLeaf is built specifically for small teams. If you have more than 3 employees taking time off, you'll benefit from having one place to manage it, even if you don't have an HR department.
QHow long does it take to set up?
Most teams are fully configured in under 30 minutes. Add your team, set your leave policies, connect Slack or Teams, and you're live.
QDo employees need to download a separate app?
No. If your team uses Slack or Teams, they can do everything from there. There's also a web app if they prefer a dedicated view.
QWhat happens to our data if we cancel?
Your subscription stays active until the end of your current billing cycle, whether monthly or annual. During that time you can export everything. Your data is always yours. After the cycle ends, your account is deactivated, but we retain your data for 30 days in case you change your mind.
QCan I set different leave policies per team?
Yes. You can configure separate leave types, accrual rules, and approval chains for different departments or employment types, all from one place.
QDo I pay for part-time or seasonal employees?
You only pay for active employees. Archive seasonal workers when they're off. They won't count toward your plan. Reactivate them when they're back, and their history is preserved.
