Someone called out? Covered.
Today's board shows who's in, who's late, and which shifts are open. Text who's out, and Vocifer finds cover ranked by role, hours, and who's usually free.
Business assistant
It runs the business.You get your time back.
Text it like you'd text a manager. Vocifer keeps the schedule, hires, gets payroll ready, orders from your vendors, and keeps track of everything that's due, built for your kind of business.
14-day free trial. Plans from $20 a month.
A day with Vocifer
Texts, then the result.
6:30 am
Home already says who's on today, who's running late, which deliveries are coming, and what's due this week.
7:05 am
“Rosa's out sick today.” Vocifer lists who can cover, best fit first: right role, hours left this week, free today. Tap a name and the shift moves.
10:00 am
“Order 10 cases of fries and 4 jugs of fryer oil from Sysco.” It writes the order for Sysco's next delivery and waits. Tap send, and it goes from your own email.
1:30 pm
“Hire Grace as a line cook at $20 an hour starting Monday.” Grace gets one link. She signs her offer letter, tax forms, and direct deposit on her phone. Your own hiring checks, like a food handler card, are on her file.
4:00 pm
“How much is payday?” Hours from the time clock, overtime, and estimated taxes, ready before payday. Nothing goes out until you tap approve.
9:00 pm
“What's due this month?” Every permit, tax date, and renewal on one calendar, in plain words.
What it does
The work, in the owner's words.
Next week's schedule, drafted.
“Plan next week” builds it from what your business actually did in recent weeks. Already keep a schedule? Upload the spreadsheet, the calendar file, or a photo of the paper one.
Hire someone in one text.
Vocifer works out what your state and the job require. The new hire gets one link and signs everything on their phone: an offer letter, the official government forms filled in for them (like the W-4, I-9, and state withholding), required notices, and direct deposit. Job posts, applicants, and interviews are in one place too.
Payroll, before payday.
Hours, overtime (California's rules included), and estimated taxes, worked out for you. It works with the payroll service you already use, like Gusto, ADP, Paychex, or QuickBooks. You approve every run.
Everything due, on one calendar.
Payroll and income tax dates, permits and licenses for your trade and state, trainings, new-hire reports, and renewals. Add it to your Google, Apple, or Outlook calendar.
Know what to order, and by when.
Vendors, delivery days, and order cutoffs. A bakery that comes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday gets an order for each day. Stock counts and par levels tell you what's running low. Snap the delivery slip, and Vocifer checks what came.
See where the money went.
Upload bank statements or connect your bank, and money in and out is sorted. Invoices to customers, bills to pay, and receipts, in one place.
A time clock on any tablet.
Staff tap their name and enter a PIN. Clock-ins feed late alerts and payroll hours. No app for them to install.
Your own rules, remembered.
“When I hire a chef, check their food handler card and ServSafe.” “Drivers need a Class A license and a year's experience.” Say it once. Vocifer checks it at every hire, and you can change it any time.
Your business number answers itself.
Get a business phone number. The assistant answers calls, takes voicemails, and handles texts.
Your inbox, sorted.
Connect Gmail or Outlook. Bills, call-outs, applicants, vendor changes, and tax notices rise to the top. The rest stays out of your way.
Your household's taxes too.
Every account starts with a Personal space for your household: W-2s, 1099s, past returns, family, and a running federal tax estimate. Vocifer organizes and estimates. It doesn't file your return.
Make it yours
The home screen is built for your kind of business, and then for you.
Vocifer names the tiles for the work you do. A grill sees Who's on, Deliveries, and Stock. A dental office sees Who's in today, Supplies & reps, and Licenses & certs. Then make it yours:
- Rename any tile. Some say Stock, some say Inventory.
- Ask for your own: “Keep a list of catering orders with client, date, guests, and total.” It becomes a tile on your home screen.
- Add your own rules, like the hiring checks above.
Two restaurants can have two different home screens. That's the point.
How it works
Three steps.
01
Create your account.
It starts with Personal, your household's money and taxes.
02
Add your business in one sentence.
“Dental office in Austin, TX, 2 dentists and 5 hygienists.” Vocifer sets up the tiles, the licenses to track, and the tax and payroll calendar for that trade and state. Add more businesses and rentals any time; each is its own space.
03
Text it like a manager.
Who's in. Who called out. How much payday is. It does the work and opens the page that shows it. Changes to pay, letting someone go, and approving payroll always wait for your tap.

Safe by design
Safe by design
- Everything is encrypted. Each business, rental, and Personal space has its own key.
- No one at Vocifer browses your data, and your information never trains AI models.
- New hires' Social Security numbers and bank details stay in their signed forms. With the lockbox, those forms open only on your own devices.
- Delete your account and its keys are destroyed first, then everything is erased. You get a receipt.
Start with a 14-day free trial.
Basic is $20 a month for you, your household, and one business.

- Do I have to change my payroll company?
- No. Vocifer gets payroll ready and works with the one you use.
- Do my employees need the app?
- No. They clock in with a PIN, and new hires sign from a link on their phone.

- Yes. Each business or rental is its own space under one account.

- No, never.
The next time someone calls out, you shouldn't have to close the office door.
