For tree care crews
Time tracking built for tree care crews.
Removals and trims happen on rural lots where the phone barely works. Clox saves each punch on the phone until the phone has a signal again, so the week's hours are complete.

The problem Clox solves
Two crews work six properties, and you get a pile of paper at the end of the week.
One crew is on a big removal, another is running trims across the county, and half the lots have no signal. The hours come back as scribbles on a paper timecard, when they come back at all. Clox records each punch on the phone as it happens, so Friday's payroll is built from punches instead of memory.
What you get
What Clox does for tree care crews.
Removals, trimming, stump grinding, storm work: if your crew moves between properties and storm calls, Clox fits.
Runs offline on rural lots
If there is no signal, the punch is saved on the phone and sent to Clox once the phone has a signal and Clox is open, within a day of the punch. A full day on a remote removal still comes back as clean hours.
One shared tablet for the whole crew
Set up one shared tablet as a kiosk. The crew clocks in on it with their name and a PIN, so there's no app to install for every groundman. The tablet needs a signal to record a punch.
Cost per removal
Tag time to each removal or trim. See the real labor per property and bid the next removal off what the last one took.
What the manager sees
Timesheets and job sites in the web app.
Your crew's punches become timesheets on their own. In the web app at app.getclox.com, from a computer or phone browser, you see who is on each job site and the hours on every project. There is nothing to key into a spreadsheet.
Timesheets
Approve a week of hours
Clox lays out every shift, break, and overtime hour by week. You fix a wrong punch, close a shift someone forgot to clock out of, and approve the week.
Worksites
See who is on the job site
Set a geofence, a GPS radius around each job site. For the employees you choose, an off-site clock-in is blocked. The check is a deterrent, not a scanner. You see who is on the clock and where. With pay rates set, the Clox app on your phone also shows an estimate of today's labor cost.
How it works
Set up Clox in three steps.
You run Clox from the web app. Your crew clocks in from the Clox app on their phones. Employees without a smartphone clock in with their name and PIN on a shared tablet at the job site, set up as a kiosk.
Sign up and invite your crew
Create your account, then send your crew an invite link by text or email. They sign up and clock in from their own phones.
They clock in and you see the hours
They clock in from their phones or the shared tablet. Clox checks phone clock-ins against the geofence and applies your automatic lunch deduction and overtime rules.
Export the hours for payroll
When payroll is due, export a payroll file for QuickBooks, Gusto, ADP, or Paychex. Nothing gets added up by hand.
