For painters

Time tracking built for painting crews.

Your crew can drift onto the clock at the paint store or in the truck, long before anyone's working. Clox can hold the clock-in until they're standing on site, so the morning run-around stops landing on your payroll.

The Sunday-night problem

The clock starts in the truck, long before anyone is on a ladder.

When workers punch in from the truck or the paint-store lot, you pay for the morning run-around before any work begins. Across a crew, five days a week, that adds up. Clox can hold the clock-in until a worker is inside the job-site fence, so paid time starts when the work does.

What you get

Built for the way painters actually work.

Run painters across repaints, new construction, or light commercial? Clox is built for you.

01

A geofence that blocks off-site punches

Set a radius around the job. Outside it, the clock-in won't go through, so a punch from the paint store or the parking lot never happens. Paid time starts on site.

02

Real labor per house

See the real hours on every house after it closes. Price the next bid off what the last job actually cost you, down to the crew and the day.

03

Overtime and breaks, handled

Daily and weekly overtime, lunch deductions, and state break rules are calculated automatically every week, so you don't redo the timecard math by hand on a Sunday night.

See it in action

Timesheets and job sites, in one place.

Your crew's punches become timesheets on their own. You see who is on each site and the hours behind every job, without keying any of it into a spreadsheet.

Timesheets

Approve a week of hours in minutes

Every shift, break, and overtime hour is calculated and laid out by week. Fix a wrong punch, close a shift someone forgot to clock out of, and approve. Payroll is ready by Friday.

Worksites

Know who's actually on the job site

Set a GPS radius around each site. Clock-ins outside it get flagged. You see who is on the clock and where, and once you set pay rates, what the day is costing while it happens.

How it works

Up and running this week.

You run Clox from the web. Your crew clocks in from the Clox app on their phones. If some of the crew share one device, mount a tablet at the trailer and they punch in with a PIN.

01

Sign up and invite your crew

Create your account in under a minute, then text your painters a link. They sign up and start clocking in from their own phones.

02

They clock in, you see everything

One tap in, one tap out, on a phone or a shared tablet at the trailer. Geofencing, breaks, and overtime rules run on their own.

03

Export payroll, reclaim your weekend

Friday: one CSV export into QuickBooks, Gusto, ADP, or Paychex. The Sunday-night timecard math is gone.

Questions

Questions painters ask

Will my crew actually use it?

If they can use a phone, they can use Clox. Clocking in is a single tap. There's nothing to set up or remember. Crews on a shared tablet punch in with a short PIN.

Does it work without cell signal on a job site?

Yes. Punches are saved on the device and sync automatically the moment the phone is back in range.

How much does it cost?

A $29/month base that includes your first 3 users, then $6 per additional user. Every feature is included on every plan. There's a 14-day free trial and no credit card required to start.

Does it handle overtime and breaks?

Yes. Daily and weekly overtime, lunch deductions, and state break rules are calculated automatically, including California's daily and double-time tiers.

Can I get the hours into QuickBooks, Gusto, ADP, or Paychex?

Yes. Clox exports a CSV built for QuickBooks, Gusto, ADP, and Paychex, plus a universal CSV that any other payroll provider can take.

Simple pricing

$29 / month base, then $6 / user.

Every feature is included on every plan. You pay a flat base plus a set rate per person, so you only pay for the painters on the team.
