In short

Gumb is an app for temporary and seasonal teams, such as helper teams for a festival, a tournament or a season. Admins enter members directly or invite them by link, shifts sit as events in the calendar, and after the availability check the star marks who takes the shift. Briefings are files on the event, backups become a task, and reminders can go only to those scheduled.

From shift chaos to a team that works

What costs team leads time before every assignment, and how Gumb fixes it.

Without Gumb: Building a team for a few weeks takes days of lists and emails.

With Gumb: Admins enter members directly, others join by link.

Without Gumb: Too many yeses for too few posts, and in the end nobody knows who is really working.

With Gumb: First ask who can, then put a star on those scheduled.

Without Gumb: If someone drops out, the search for a backup starts from scratch.

With Gumb: Backups stand ready as a task on the shift.

Without Gumb: The briefing only arrives on the morning of the assignment.

With Gumb: Briefing and site map sit on the event beforehand.

FAQ: the app for temporary teams

How do I quickly put together a team for a season or an event?

Admins enter members directly or invite them by email. Or you share a link through which people send a join request.

How do I assign shifts for sure?

First check availability, then mark with a star who takes the shift. If you want, reminders go only to those scheduled.

How do I handle backups if someone drops out?

Create a task called “Backup” and turn it on for the shift. People who can step in sign up, and you see right away whom to ask.

Can areas such as entrance and bar plan separately?

Yes. Every area gets its own group scheduler, and group events are only visible to its members. Admins see every event.

Does Gumb track working hours or pay?

No. Gumb has no time tracking and no payroll. Gumb plans shifts, assignments and briefings.

How do I see who worked how many shifts?

Statistics gives you participation as an Excel file. Filter by period, event type, area or individual people.
