Blue Tempo lets your crew clock in from their phones, tracks hours inside each project's job-site radius, and turns it into automatic payroll totals and PDF or CSV timesheets — so you stop losing money to guesswork and paper.
Built for the crews who get it done
Every fudged timecard, missed clock-out and Monday-morning "how many hours did you work?" adds up. Blue Tempo replaces it with hours you can actually trust.
Rounded-up timecards and "I think it was 8 hours" cost the average crew thousands a month in overpaid wages.
Chasing crew for hours, deciphering handwriting and re-keying numbers turns payroll into an unpaid second job.
Without hours tied to each job, you're bidding blind — and you only find out a project lost money after it's done.
No clunky setup, no training day. If your crew can text, they can use Blue Tempo.
Set up each project, add your crew, and start tracking. Every teammate gets their own secure login on their own phone.
Enter each teammate's hourly rate once and Blue Tempo turns tracked hours into accurate pay totals automatically — no calculator required.
Drop a pin on each project and set a tracking radius, so hours are tied to the place the work actually happens.
Get notified the moment a teammate logs time outside the project radius — so you catch mistakes and bad punches before payroll.
Turn approved hours into clean timesheet reports and export to PDF or CSV in a couple of taps — ready for payroll or the books.
See who's on the clock, at which project, right now — from the office or the truck. No more "where's everybody?"
Drop a pin on every job and set a radius. The moment a teammate crosses onto the job site, Blue Tempo starts a GPS-verified timesheet — and flags any punch that happens outside the line.
Add teammates by phone number and they download the app. Most crews are clocking in the same day.
Crew taps to clock in and out from their own login. Time tracks against the project radius and flags anything logged off site.
Review, approve and export accurate timesheets in minutes — not a wasted Saturday afternoon.
Blue Tempo runs natively on every phone your crew already carries. No tablets to buy, no terminal to mount on a wall.
"Payroll used to eat my entire Saturday. Now it's 20 minutes on Friday. The GPS punches alone paid for the whole year in the first month."
"My guys actually use it because it's dead simple. I finally know my real labor cost on every job, and my bids stopped losing money."
"We run three plumbing crews across the city. Blue Tempo shows me who's where in real time. Best $59 I spend every month."
Other field-service apps pile on per-seat fees that balloon as your crew grows. Blue Tempo gives you the same job-site GPS tracking and payroll-ready timesheets, built for trades, for a single flat price.
