The rest of the Calamari platform

Teams and Outlook cover the everyday essentials: requesting time off, clocking in, checking balances, and keeping an eye on your team's schedule. For policy setup, approval rules, and reporting, the full Time Off and Time & Attendance modules are on the Calamari web and mobile app.

Calamari itself is built from independent, interlocking modules—Time Off, Time & Attendance, Core HR, and Performance Reviews today, with Scheduling on the way. Pick what you need and pay only for those.

Core HR holds the employee record and documents, plus a request catalog for everything outside of leave (benefits, equipment, certificates, remote-work declarations), each with its own policy and status. Performance Reviews replaces the annual spreadsheet with structured review cycles (self, peer, and manager assessments) and goal tracking next to the rating. Scheduling (coming soon) will add shift planning on top. One-click reporting pulls data from every module into a single dashboard.
