How staffing agencies, umbrella companies, and managed service providers use Zipwire to streamline timesheet processing, reduce disputes, and give their clients verified proof of work.
Agencies sit at the centre of the timesheet flow. You're not the one doing the work, and you're not the end client paying for it — but you're responsible for making sure both sides trust each other and get paid correctly.
Zipwire is built around that role.
One inbox, many clients. All timesheets across your client base flow into a single processing inbox. Filter by sender, client, or status. No chasing emails.
Automatic anomaly detection. Every timesheet is scanned for conditions worth attention — overworked days, underworked days, missing rate plans, public holidays, mid-period rate changes. Anything notable surfaces as a flag before you approve. See Timesheet Flags.
Verified proof as standard. Every approved timesheet becomes a blockchain-attested record. Your clients get cryptographic proof of work — not just a PDF. Disputes about what was done, when, and by whom become much harder to sustain. See Verifiable Timesheets.
Skills on every record. AI extracts the professional skills used from each timesheet's activity descriptions. Those skills are included in the verified record. Your contractors build a verifiable skill profile as a side effect of doing their normal timesheets. See Skills Extraction.
Approval via WhatsApp. End clients who just need to rubber-stamp a timesheet can do it without logging in. Send them a link; they approve or reject from their phone. See Approving Timesheets via WhatsApp.
Invoicing built in. Rate plans, billing units, and invoicing are part of the workflow configuration. No re-keying hours into a separate system. See Understanding Invoicing.
