You don't know a shift went wrong until the next morning.
Shift Check gives every shift a set of checks and a handover, so problems reach an area manager while they can still be fixed.
- Who it's for
- Venues, retail sites and area management teams
- What you should see
- Opening, closing and handover completed and visible in real time.
All access managed securely via your Nightingale Admin Centre.
Does any of this sound familiar?
These are the situations Shift Check was built to remove.
Openings and closings vary by whoever's on
The standard depends on the individual because nothing defines it.
Handovers are verbal and get lost
The night team's issue never reaches the morning team.
Area managers find out too late
Problems surface on the next visit rather than during the shift.
Issues get raised but never closed
A fault is reported, nobody owns it, and it is raised again a fortnight later.
No comparison between sites
There is no way to tell a consistently well-run site from one that is coasting.
How Shift Check fixes it.
Three steps. No implementation project required.
- 1
Define the shift
Set the opening, mid-shift and closing checks each site should run.
- 2
The team works through it
Checks are completed on a phone, with photos where evidence matters, and a handover note at the end.
- 3
Exceptions escalate
Anything missed or failed reaches the manager immediately and stays open until it is resolved.
What you get out of it.
Five things a business owner cares about, and what each one looks like in practice.
Shorter shift-start scramble
The team knows exactly what to do and in what order.
Fewer small failures that cost real money
Equipment left on, stock left out and jobs left undone get caught the same day.
Issues get an owner
Nothing raised on a shift disappears — it is assigned and tracked to close.
Live picture across the estate
See which sites have opened properly, right now, without ringing round.
Evidence of standards
Signed, timestamped checks show the standard was actually applied.
Results customers get with this product.

We'd rather show you real ones.
Shift Check is a young product and we won't publish quotes we haven't earned. Customer stories will appear here as early customers agree to be named — with their own words and their own numbers, not ours. Until then, the free tier is the honest way to judge it: run it on real work for a fortnight and see what changes.
Happy to be an early reference customer? Tell us on the contact form and we'll talk about what that looks like.
Shift Check questions, answered.
Everything you need to know about Starter, scaling up, and optional onboarding.
What's included in the free Starter tier?+
Starter is free forever for a single site with unlimited opening, closing and cleaning checklists, photo evidence and manager sign-off. Enough for a single site to run entirely off paper.
How does Pro pricing work?+
Pro is £49 per month for your whole workspace — unlimited sites included, with multi-site rollups, custom checklist templates, alerting on missed checks and priority support.
When do I need Enterprise?+
Enterprise suits multi-brand groups and regulated operators needing SSO, custom retention, EHO-ready audit exports and a dedicated success manager. Quoted against site count.
Does it work on any phone?+
Yes — Shift Check runs in any modern mobile browser plus native iOS and Android apps. Photo evidence captures directly from the camera, and checks work offline and sync when the shift ends.
Is there an onboarding fee?+
No fee on Starter or Pro. Multi-site rollouts can opt into a setup package (£750–£3,000) for template design and team training.
