CrewHub is an all-in-one operations platform built for any company that deploys workers in the field — from facilities and logistics to healthcare, utilities, and beyond.
The Challenge
Companies with distributed field teams face the same operational pain points — regardless of industry.
Spreadsheets, phone calls, and last-minute changes lead to uncovered shifts, double-bookings, and frustrated workers.
Managers can't see who's on site, who's late, or whether tasks are completed until it's too late.
Missed check-ins, unanswered welfare calls, and siloed messaging put workers and clients at risk.
Incident reports, timesheets, and compliance documents pile up — slowing billing and creating audit risk.
Recruiting, training, and compliance live in separate systems, disconnected from day-to-day field operations.
Without real-time dashboards and analytics, leadership makes decisions based on gut feel, not facts.
The Solution
CrewHub unifies scheduling, live field control, push-to-talk, chat, HR, billing, inventory, and AI into a single cloud platform — purpose-built for companies with field workers.

Technology
Modern, owned infrastructure — GraphQL as the source of record, workers for safety-critical jobs, and focused integrations rather than a tangle of point tools.
App Router admin UI, Apollo Client, Ant Design, role-aware navigation.
AList Staff on iOS and Android. Same GraphQL API as the office console.
Modular GraphQL domains, JWT sessions, Mongoose on MongoDB.
Documents for ops data; queues for reminders, checkups, and detectors.
Reminders, welfare calls, PBX, recordings, PTT audio, transcripts.
Email triage, manager assistant, realtime voice agents, RAG over SOPs.
Push to the staff app; office chat over a dedicated messaging service.
Directions and geofences; inbound tickets; branded outbound email.
Reports, PDFs, avatars, HR files, site gallery. Synology + ffmpeg for video.
Live tools with the user’s JWT. Preview → confirm before any write.
API, workers, Redis, CDN, assistant, messaging — TLS reverse proxy.
Rotating refresh tokens, IP allowlists, revoke-any-device, FCM tokens.
Architecture
Clients talk to one GraphQL API. Background workers own the safety loops. Integrations send events — they never replace the scheduler or ledger.
Operations Command Center
Modular, department-aware widgets — coverage, tickets, unapproved hours, and live posts. Admins set defaults in Dashboard Designer; users rearrange their own layout.
Illustrative admin home — Northline Security sample week. Coverage, response time, and live posts at a glance.
Leadership sees operational health instantly — no more waiting for end-of-week reports.
Scheduling & Shifts
Plan, publish, and manage shifts across all clients and sites — with recurring schedules, task lists, and worker acceptance workflows.
Build shifts with recurrence, services, and task checklists
Workers receive shift offers via app and SMS reminders
Workers confirm availability; managers see responses live
Clock-in from mobile with GPS verification
Check off assigned duties and submit reports
Auto-calculate hours, flag late starts or overruns
Week grid with dummy sites (Downtown Office, Harbor Mall, West Campus) — published blocks, open posts, and copy/publish actions.
Weekly patterns, copy-forward, CSV and Novagems import, conflict checks before publish.
Automated SMS and voice reminders before start, with management escalation if unanswered.
Scheduled vs clocked hours, overtime flags, then payroll and invoices from the same numbers.
Live Operations
Run the night from one screen — who is on post, inside the geofence, answering check calls, or in trouble.
Dummy Tuesday night board: Maya Chen on post, Jordan Hale late 8 minutes, check-call and in-transit states.
Supervisors stop calling around to learn who showed up. The board already knows.
Mobile Field App
A dedicated mobile experience gives workers shifts, tasks, reports, site gallery, equipment, panic, and team radio — right in their pocket.
Dummy field session: Downtown Office night tour and Security department radio. Data is illustrative.
The phone is the post log — location, tasks, radio, and proof of work in one place.
Proof of Work
Field staff submit templated reports with photos while dispatch watches GPS pings, geofence status, and the movement trail in real time.
Dummy night tour: Maya Chen’s GPS trail around Downtown Office, last ping 18s ago, duty report DR-441 pending approval.
Clients get proof. Dispatch sees who moved, who stopped, and what was filed — without a radio check.
Worker Safety
Protect lone and remote workers with automated check calls and SMS verification — escalating to management when workers don't respond.
Meet lone-worker safety regulations and demonstrate due diligence with automated, logged welfare checks.
Team Radio New
Radio-style half-duplex voice for people already on shift — no separate hardware net, with floor control, membership, and an audit trail.
Dummy Security department channel — six listening, Jordan Hale holding the floor.
Coordinating a lobby incident takes a hold, not a phone tree — and dispatch already has the shift context.
Communications Hub
Twilio powers the phone layer. A dedicated messaging service adds company channels and DMs for the office — all linked back to shifts and tickets.
Dummy #night-ops thread — camera down, ticket T-1842, check-call window called out by dispatch.
Reminders, alerts, two-way worker messages.
Extensions, ring groups, IVR, business hours, voicemail.
Common channel, groups, DMs, realtime delivery.
Call audio, transcripts, linked communication logs.
Manager Assistant New
Not a generic chatbot. The assistant reads the same records dispatch uses, and never writes without a preview you confirm.
Sample: “Who is late or missing?” returns Jordan Hale + an unassigned West Campus night — then a confirmable re-offer.
Managers hunt less in the grid. The assistant finds the gap, shows the records, and waits for a tap to act.
AI Email Intake
A monitored inbox is classified by OpenAI — intent, site, service, PO, confidence — then a ticket is created or the existing thread is updated. No copy-paste from Outlook.
Dummy Harbor Mall extra-cover request → intent Extra coverage, PO-8841, ticket T-2218 opened at 94% confidence.
Client mail is work the moment it arrives — classified, ticketed, and optionally answered before a human opens it.
Client Management
Organize your operation around clients and their physical sites — with contacts, billing, geo-fences, timezone overrides, and a site gallery field staff can open on shift.
Full client records with codes, status, contacts, billing information, notes, and archive support. Filter and search across your entire client base.
Each client can have multiple sites with addresses, geo-coordinates, access instructions, report templates, and site-specific scheduling rules.
Whether you manage 10 sites or 10,000, CrewHub scales with hierarchical client → site → shift organization.
Site Geofencing
Every site can carry a geo boundary — a radius or a drawn polygon. Clock-in, patrol stops, and live tracking all check that fence.
Dummy Downtown Office polygon fence — clock-in must be inside; Maya Chen shown inside the boundary.
A clock-in from the parking lot next door does not count as on site. The fence is the proof.
Billing Catalog
Define the work types you sell — guarding, mobile patrol, alarm response, concierge — with default rates, icons, and per-site overrides.
Dummy catalog: Guarding $32.50/hr default; Harbor Mall override $36.00/hr. Apply across sites in bulk.
You are not retyping “night patrol” on every site. Rates follow the service — unless that client pays more.
Inventory & Assets New
A full registry of radios, keys, vehicles, and bodycams — who has them, where they last moved, and whether the shift checkpoint was clean.
Dummy night-tour checkpoint: Radio R-104 and keys checked; bodycam BC-22 flagged unresolved.
The next officer cannot start clean if the last one never returned the radio. The checkpoint makes that visible.
Human Resources
From job postings to compliance — manage your entire workforce pipeline without leaving the platform.
Job openings, application forms, candidate tracking, interviews, and offer management.
Permanent, hourly, on-call, contractor, seasonal, and intern worker types with full employment records.
Training program management, course assignments, and completion tracking for field readiness.
Certifications, blacklist, worker self-service profile requests, and audit-ready documents.
Paid, unpaid, sick, emergency, and holiday leave requests with approval workflows.
Performance reviews, case management, and compensation tracking.
Maintain do-not-hire lists with reason tracking and cross-reference during hiring.
Worker satisfaction surveys and feedback collection to improve retention.
Route Optimization
Optimize multi-site visit routes and manage mobile patrol shifts — minimizing travel time and maximizing site coverage.
Optimized routes mean less fuel, less time between sites, and more productive field hours.
Auto Ticketing
Work enters the queue from email, voicemail, panic, and automations — then dispatch assigns, links a shift, and replies on the same thread.
IMAP email, voice/voicemail, manual dispatch, field panic, and automation-created records — one queue.
AI classification, department scoping, priority, auto-respond rules, and assignment to the right desk.
Link client, site, and schedules. Threaded email reply. Kanban, list, or table. Complaints stay on a separate HR track.
If mail, a voicemail, or a panic arrives, a ticket already exists — with the thread, site guess, and activity log attached.
SOPs scoped general, client, or site. Staff read what applies to their post; the assistant can cite it on a ticket.
n8n & Workflows
When something happens in CrewHub, the platform can SMS, email, open a ticket — or start an n8n workflow so your existing Slack, Sheets, and iPaaS keep working.
Dummy rule: high-priority Harbor Mall ticket → comment + SMS + n8n → Slack #dispatch and a Sheets row.
n8n fans events out to the tools you already run. Scheduling, tickets, and hours still live here.
Financial Operations
Turn completed shifts into revenue — with integrated invoicing and payroll workflows tied directly to your schedule data.
Generate invoices from shift data with client billing profiles, line items, and payment tracking. Reduce billing cycles from weeks to days.
Process worker payroll based on verified shift hours, overtime flags, and approval workflows — ensuring accurate compensation.
Accurate, automated billing from verified shift data means invoices go out faster and disputes drop dramatically.
Optional Module
A complete parking enforcement module for municipalities and property managers — tickets, payments, disputes, and provincial integrations.
Issue parking tickets from the field with photo evidence, location data, and violation details.
Online payment processing with partial payment, refund, and overdue tracking.
Public lookup by serial and plate — pay online or file a bilingual dispute without calling the desk.
Modular design — enable only the features your business needs. Parking enforcement is one of many optional modules.
Enterprise Security
Granular permission controls ensure every user sees only what they need — from super admins to field workers to client portal users.
