SMS shift dispatch for US staffing agencies

Stop calling workers one by one to fill last-minute shifts.

RosterRounds texts eligible workers in priority order. The first qualified reply claims the shift. Your dispatcher gets an assignment record — not a stack of unanswered DMs.

The coverage problem

Your dispatcher shouldn't need a phone tree to fill one open shift.

When someone calls off, the problem isn't a shortage of workers. It's knowing who's qualified for that post, reaching them before they take something else, tracking who replied first, and proving the shift was offered fairly.

Most agencies solve this with a group chat, a list of names, and 40 minutes of follow-up texts.

RosterRounds is narrow by design: open shift creation, eligibility matching, controlled SMS rounds, coded replies, and a complete record of every offer and claim. No worker app. No scheduling migration. No bloated workforce platform.

How it works

Three steps. Shift filled.

01

Post the open shift

Add the role, site, start time, required credentials, and any assignment rules. Takes two minutes.

02

Eligible workers get a text

RosterRounds sends the offer to your first qualified group. If no one claims it within your window, the next round goes out automatically.

03

First qualified reply wins

A worker texts back YES 4821. The shift is assigned. Everyone else gets a filled notification. Your dispatcher did not make one call.

Built for how staffing agencies actually work

Why it's different

No app to install

Workers claim shifts from the SMS app they already use. No download, no login, no rollout campaign. If they can text, they can claim a shift.

You control who goes first

Set offer rounds by role, site, credentials, or your own priority groups. Who gets the first offer — and in what order — is yours to define.

A record you can stand behind

Every offer, every reply, every late claim, and every assignment is logged. When a worker says they never got the offer, you have the receipts.
