Your team clocks in, takes breaks and requests leave right in Slack or Microsoft Teams. Managers approve in a tap and see who's in, who's late and who's out. Payroll, shifts and projects join the same workspace when you need them.
No credit card required · Trust-first, no forced monitoring · Secure sign-in & role-based access
Works with the tools your team already uses
Your team runs its whole day in Slack and Microsoft Teams. But attendance is still a spreadsheet, leave hides in DMs, and month-end is a scramble. Most HR software “fixes” this by adding one more app your team won't open.
Don't make people come to HR. Bring HR to them.
Clock-ins, breaks, late arrivals, leave requests and balances, handled in Slack or Microsoft Teams and on the web. It's the part of HR your team touches every day, and it's free for up to 10 employees.
Hours, breaks and lateness, recorded as people work.
Clock in from Slack, browser, or desktop. Set your office hours, working days, and timezone; sessions, hours, and daily breakdowns are tracked automatically, no manual timesheets.
Toggle a break with /tickin break in Slack. Tickin pauses the work timer, subtracts break time from worked hours, and shows the daily total. So overtime stays honest.
Set office hours, a grace period, working days, and timezone. Clock in past the grace window and managers get a late-arrival notice in Slack or Teams, once per person per working day, skipping public holidays.
Missed a clock-in or got a time wrong? Employees request a correction and an admin signs off, with the team lead reviewing first on Growth and Scale. The audit trail follows.
When someone works past their daily hours, Tickin asks in Slack or Teams: count it as overtime, or cap the day. At month end a reconciliation shows required hours, hours worked and the overtime left over. On Starter an admin switches it on.
Requests, approvals and balances, without the DMs.
Custom leave policies and balances tracked automatically. On Growth and Scale, requests go to the team lead first, then an admin; on Free and Starter, an admin approves. No spreadsheets, no email threads.
Every working day, a Leave & WFH report posts to your Slack or Teams channel: who is on leave, who is on a half day and who is working from home. Late-arrival alerts skip anyone on approved leave.
Morning or afternoon half days on every plan, the leave types your policy actually has, and a public-holiday calendar that attendance and late alerts respect.
Upgrade inside the same workspace. The hours and leave you already track feed payroll and projects, so nothing is re-entered and nothing moves.
One /tickin command runs attendance, leave, approvals, and reports right inside Slack and Microsoft Teams. It works the same on both, and adapts to each person's role.
Everything about your own day
Run your team, approve in place
The whole workspace, from chat
Managers see everything an employee can, for their team. Admins see everything, for the whole workspace. Permissions are enforced server-side.
How a leave request flows, without leaving chat
The team-lead step is on Growth and Scale. On Free and Starter, an admin approves directly.
Work from Slack and Microsoft Teams
Clock-ins and employee self-service work in Slack on every plan. Interactive leave and correction approvals, attendance alerts, and scheduled reports come with the Chat Command Center. The team-lead role, its team dashboard, and two-step approvals (team lead, then admin) are on Growth and Scale; on Free and Starter an admin approves directly. Microsoft Teams is available on the Scale plan.
Hear it from the people who run attendance, leave and payroll with Tickin every day.

Their team has been absolutely amazing since day one. Everything we need is basically all in one place, which makes things so much easier for us.
If your team is already using Slack and you've been struggling to manage time tracking, HR processes, payroll, team notes, and everything else across different tools, this is definitely worth checking out. It really simplifies the whole workflow.
But what stands out the most for us is their support. They are incredibly responsive, and at this point I genuinely don't know if they even sleep 😂 Every question we've had has been answered quickly, and they've been so open to listening to our suggestions and recommendations. Some of the feedback we shared was even addressed almost immediately.
Our team has really loved the experience so far. The tool is great, but the people behind it and the level of support make it even better. Definitely a big one for us, and we're excited to see how much more they build!
No implementation consultants. No 90-day rollouts. Tickin is opinionated on purpose, you get a working HR system from day one.
Sign up with your email or Google account. Set your company name, currency, and country preset. No credit card. No setup calls.
Send invites by email. Assign each person a role: admin, team lead, or employee. Connect Slack so the team can clock in from any channel.
Your team clocks in from Slack, web, or desktop. Tickin captures hours, breaks via /tickin break, and idle time in the Desktop App. Overtime is confirmed at clock-out with a Slack DM.
Approve leave and corrections in chat, see who is in and who is out, and get weekly reports. When you need it, Growth runs payroll from the same hours.
Tickin is designed around trust, not surveillance. Attendance, leave, payroll, and time tracking all work without any screenshot monitoring — there are no forced screenshots and no keystroke logging.
Screenshot and activity monitoring are available as an optional module that is disabled by default. An admin can turn it on for the rare team that needs it — it is never our default identity.
What Tickin measures — outcomes, not behavior.
Clock in, take breaks, and request leave from the chat your team already lives in. One bot, set up once — every action flows straight back to Tickin.
Project & task management, built right into the platform that already runs your team's attendance and payroll. One login, no extra tool.
Start secure video meetings without leaving Tickin. Schedule meetings, launch instant calls, collaborate with your team, manage attendees, and keep everything connected with your workspace.
Productivity monitoring stays off until an admin turns it on, and it takes two deliberate steps: the Desktop App add-on, then a switch only an admin can flip. This is what an admin sees once both are done.
Shown with sample data. Employees see their own record; team leads see their team.
Free forever for up to 10 employees, no credit card. Add payroll on Growth and projects on Scale when you need them, from your billing settings.
