Plain App SL

Based in Catalonia, Spain, and founded in 2022, Plain App SL operates as a software-as-a-service (SaaS) company offering a staff shift planning app for SMEs and large companies. In October 2023, the firm raised EUR 337,000 in venture funding led by investor Enisa. The company offers a cloud-based platform, accessible via mobile or computer, for shift management, eliminating errors and streamlining operations, time control for businesses across diverse sectors, and vacation and absence management. Plain's shift management module enables HR and operations teams to plan employee schedules.

The shift management platform leverages the algorithm that considers personnel availability, operational needs, and user-defined restrictions, delivering error-free shift planning in under a second. Under time control software, the company records online or in-person login and logout times of employees and monitors the daily work activity of users’ businesses. Other features of the time control software include an employee dashboard, distribution of theoretical hours in the work week, official time control report, automatic alerts, etc. Lastly, under the vacation and absence management software, Plain App enhances workforce organization by offering a comprehensive view of the total, enjoyed, and available days for shift and vacation planning.

The system also facilitates employee requests, automates approval workflows, and provides real-time insights into workforce availability. Plain App generates revenue by offering its SaaS platform under different subscription plans such as the PRO plan for the time management app for SMEs at EUR 4 per employee per month. The company plans to utilize the October 2023 funding to further develop the application and strengthen its market position.
