Features

Everything between the alert and the next shift.

Retire the spreadsheet and the "who has it tonight?" thread. Rotaline keeps the schedule, the paging and the context in one place.

Rotation builder

Set up daily, weekly or follow-the-sun rotations across time zones. Rotaline handles the hand-over times and daylight saving for you.

Swaps and overrides

Request a swap in two clicks. The team lead approves it straight from email or chat, and the schedule updates for everyone.

Escalation policies

Build multi-step escalation by push notification, SMS and phone call, so an unanswered page always reaches someone.

Handoff notes

Every shift change gets a structured note, with open incidents carried over automatically. Nobody starts a shift blind.

Calendar sync

Shifts appear in Google Calendar, Outlook or any iCal client, and stay in sync when swaps are approved.

Fairness report

See on-call hours per person, including nights and weekends, so the load stays even across the team.

How it works

Up and running before your next shift change.

Most teams move off their spreadsheet in an afternoon.

  1. Step 1: Connect your alerts

    Connect your alerting tools with a webhook or one of 40 built-in integrations.

  2. Step 2: Build rotations and policies

    Build a rotation and an escalation policy for each service.

  3. Step 3: Hand off every shift

    Hand off at the end of each shift. Rotaline reminds the outgoing person and notifies the incoming one.

The handoff note is the feature I didn't know I needed. I start every shift knowing what's still burning.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Can't find what you're looking for? Talk to our team.

Can I import my existing schedule from a spreadsheet?

Yes. Upload a CSV or paste rows from Google Sheets or Excel, and Rotaline maps names and dates onto a rotation. It flags gaps and double-bookings before you publish.

What happens if nobody acknowledges an alert?

The alert moves to the next step of your escalation policy, for example the secondary on-call and then the team lead, by push, SMS or phone call. If the last step goes unanswered, Rotaline repeats the policy and posts to your team channel.

Do you charge for SMS and phone calls?

No. SMS and phone alerts are included in the Team and Business plans at no extra cost. The Free plan sends push and email alerts.

Can contractors or people outside my company be on a rotation?

Yes. Invite anyone by email as a guest. Guests can join rotations, receive alerts and write handoff notes, but they only see the services you share with them. On paid plans, guests count as users.

How does the free trial work?

You get 14 days of the Team plan for your whole team, with no credit card required. When the trial ends, choose a plan or move to Free automatically. Your schedules and notes are kept either way.
