Time Keeping · Invercargill, NZ

Every hour,
accounted for.

Foveaux is time keeping built for workshops and trades. Your team logs their day on their phone. You see what’s chargeable, what’s not — and the week locks on Friday.

What it does

Built for the way a workshop actually runs.

No timesheets to chase. No spreadsheets to reconcile. Just a clear record of where the week went.

// Chargeable / Non-chargeable

Know what you can invoice.

Every entry is marked chargeable or not. Billable hours stop being guesswork and start being a number.

// Work codes A–G

Categorise the day.

Per-employee codes you name yourself — jobs, maintenance, travel, whatever your shop runs on. Turn them on and off per person.

// Friday-night lock

No backfilling.

Entries lock on Friday night. What’s on the record is what actually happened — not what someone reconstructed a fortnight later.

// Out-of-hours

Callouts and weekend work.

A separate section for after-hours and weekend jobs, kept clear of the standard six-to-six grid.

// Progressive web app

Installs on the phone.

Add it to the home screen and it works like a native app. No app store, no download queue, no install hassle.

// Private by design

Your data is yours alone.

Every business’s records are sealed off from every other’s, enforced right down at the database. Your time data is never visible to another customer.

How it works

Three steps. Then it just runs.

01

We set you up.

You get your own private Foveaux and a single link for your team. No accounts to create, no servers to run, nothing to install on your end.

02

Your team logs time.

On the phone, on the grid, in seconds. Against the codes you use, marked chargeable or not. It takes less time than the smoko break.

03

You see the week.

An admin view across the whole team. Clear by Friday, locked by Friday night, ready when payroll or invoicing is.

Why Foveaux

Built by an engineer, not a software salesman.

Foveaux started life on a workshop floor. It was built by a sheet-metal engineer who codes — so it speaks your language, not startup jargon. Practical software, made by someone who understands the work.
