Shiftbase Labs

Try upcoming features with Shiftbase Labs.

Labs is a switch inside Shiftbase. Turn it on and you get the features we're still building, in your own account, weeks before everyone else. Tell us what works and what doesn't, and you help decide what ships.

How it works

Here's how Labs works.

One switch, in your account only, off again whenever you want. That's the whole mechanic.

Turn on LabsGive feedback

Only you see it.

Labs is per person. Turning it on changes Shiftbase for you and for nobody else.

One switch.

Labs is on or off. Flip it on and you get everything that's in Labs right now, never more than three things at a time.

Off again in one click.

Changed your mind? Switch Labs off and Shiftbase goes back to how it was.

FAQ

Questions before you switch it on.

Labs changes what you see in Shiftbase, so it's fair to want the details first. If your question isn't here, our team answers the phone Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 CET.

No. Labs is part of Shiftbase and costs nothing extra. You're testing features before they ship, so charging for it would be a strange way to say thanks.

Only if they turn Labs on themselves. Labs is per person, so your colleagues open Shiftbase and see the same screens they saw yesterday.

Not today. One switch turns on everything in Labs at once. We're looking at whether to split it up, so tell us if picking feature by feature would suit you better.

Yes, in one click, and Shiftbase goes back to how it was. Nothing moves while you switch between the two.

No. Labs changes the screens you work in. Your data stays where it is, and payroll is untouched.

Use the feedback form on this page and say which feature you were in. The people building it read every response, and a rough description beats no description.
