The core of every module
Who works where, with which rights and on which public holidays is entered once in the core and applies to every module. No module keeps its own staff list.
“Where do I see what concerns me?”
One sign-in shows your own leave, hours and shifts, at the desk or on your phone.
“Who is on my team?”
Heads see their unit and everything below it. Leading and administering are separate rights.
“Are records and rights correct?”
Add, invite or import people and keep the structure current. Every change is logged.
Departments, teams and sites with their heads. The site decides the public holidays.
Add, invite or import them from a CSV or the Excel leave planner’s workbook.
Switch on time recording, shift planning, qualifications or the vehicle logbook from a date. A list shows what is still missing; switching off deletes nothing.
These belong to no single module; every business gets them.
There are six ways to bring people in, and you can plan for everyone without anyone signing up.
Departments, teams and sites form a tree, and role and unit decide what each person can see and do.
Public and school holidays for Germany, Austria and Switzerland, per person by place of work. Plus your company calendar, notice board and documents.
For each absence type you decide who sees the reason. You can download all your data at any time, on the free plan too.
Your company’s logo and brand colour in your people’s view. The calendar colours stay the same, so leave looks like leave everywhere.
Absences The place of work decides the public holidays, the structure who approves a request.
Time recording The target comes from weekly hours; whose time is recorded you choose by units.
Shift planning A shift area is a unit. Anyone employed there can be scheduled, even without an account.
Notice board and push
It replaces the sheet of paper by the gate. Push notifications say what is waiting but leave out names and details.
For your staff
It works in the browser or as an app, in the language each person picks.
Administrators and HR look after them in the menu under “Company”. Everyone else only sees what concerns them.
What applies to every company that processes employee data in software.
Anyone who has a service provider process employee data needs a data processing agreement with them.
In Tiveo: The data processing agreement is ready to download, pre-filled, before you sign up.
Employees have a right to information about the data processed about them, and to a copy.
In Tiveo: Everyone sees their own absences, leave accounts and recorded time and downloads their time as CSV.
If a company introduces technical equipment that can monitor behaviour or performance, the works council has a say.
In Tiveo: For absences there is a template works agreement, as a page, a PDF and a Word file.
Providers of data processing services must let their customers switch to another provider and take their data with them.
Art. 23 et seq. Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 (Data Act)
In Tiveo: The full export downloads all of your company’s data; how switching works is described on the data export page.
As of 26 September 2026. These sentences summarise the legal position and are not legal advice. Collective agreements and works agreements may provide otherwise.
The core is part of every plan, the free one too. What sets the plans apart is in the price table.

| Price per month | €0 | €19 | €59 | €119 |

No. You can add people and plan for them without anyone signing up. For time recording, a person without an account needs another route: a manager or HR enters their time, or they clock in at the terminal.
By import: Tiveo reads people, teams, entitlements, remaining leave and existing entries from your Excel file or a CSV. Before anything is taken over, a test run shows line by line what would be created.
The statutory public holidays of the 16 German and 9 Austrian states and the 26 Swiss cantons. Which ones apply depends on where someone works: in Munich they get the Assumption off, in Neuss they don’t.
Database and files are on a server in Germany that we run ourselves; email and program files with a hosting company, also in Germany. The second backup copy is on our own storage device on our premises. Which service providers are involved is listed in Annex 3 of the data processing agreement.
Tiveo runs in the browser, at a desk as well as on a phone. In Chrome and Edge you can also install it as an app, with its own window and icon; on an iPhone via Safari › Share › Add to Home Screen. No app store needed. Employees can read their pages in German, English, Turkish, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Ukrainian, French, Spanish or Dutch; emails and administration stay in German or English. Each person switches push notifications on per device, on iPhone and iPad in the installed app.
The demo shows a joinery with eight people at two sites, with structure, roles and every module, and no sign-up.
