Who It's For

Built for real work environments

PaperPunch was built for office workers who want a quick way to track their shift, and remote workers who need a clear view of their day without complex software overhead.

Especially useful for workers with contracted hour requirements — where knowing your hours isn't just convenient, it's necessary.

Privacy

Your data stays yours

Everything stored locally on your device. Your schedule, arrival times, and history never leave your browser unless you explicitly enable cross-device sync — and even then, data travels only between your own paired devices.

No ads, no analytics on your personal data, no third-party data sharing.
