How it works

From the gate to payroll in one flow

Sign-in, attendance and timesheets aren’t separate tools. One scan at the gate tells you who is on site, and the same record becomes the hours you approve and export.

QR code sign-in

Sign a whole crew in, in seconds

Display a QR code at the site entrance. Workers scan it with the Insite app on their own phone to sign in and out, with no queue and no shared device.

Kiosk mode

Turn any iPad into a site sign-in kiosk

Run Insite in kiosk mode at the entrance or welfare unit. Workers sign in and out on a fixed device, ideal when not everyone has a phone to hand. Same records, same audit trail.

Timesheets

Timesheets built from real sign-in data

Sign-in and sign-out build timesheets automatically, with no paper and no manual tallying. Hours are accurate to the minute and ready for approval.

Frequently asked questions

What is construction site sign in software?
It is software that records who arrives on site and when, replacing paper sign-in sheets. Insite time-stamps every sign-in and sign-out and ties it to the right project.
How do workers sign in on site?
Workers scan a QR code at the site entrance with the Insite app on their own phone, or sign in on an iPad running kiosk mode. Both produce the same time-stamped record and audit trail.
Do timesheets update automatically?
Yes. Sign-in and sign-out times build the timesheet as workers move on and off site, so hours are accurate to the minute per project with no manual tallying or re-keying.
Can I approve hours and export them to payroll?
You can review hours by worker or by project, approve in bulk, and export a CSV in the format your payroll or accounts team needs. Insite keeps a full history of who approved what.
Can I see who is on site right now?
Yes. Office teams see a live headcount for every project without phoning site, and an emergency roll call can be run from any device. Attendance history stays searchable.
Do all workers need a smartphone?
No. Kiosk mode turns any iPad at the entrance or welfare unit into a shared sign-in point for workers who do not have a phone to hand, with records that match mobile sign-ins.
Does sign-in show induction and RAMS status?
Yes. Induction and RAMS status is shown at the point of sign-in, so you can see whether a worker is cleared to start before they go to work.
