What Xota is

Xota is a platform for cleaning businesses that combines rota scheduling, time tracking, payroll, team messaging, and client updates. Drag-and-drop scheduling handles one-off work and recurring booking templates. Operatives use the mobile app to view shifts and checklists, clock in and out with GPS, upload photos, and complete bookings. Through the client portal, customers can see upcoming and past bookings, photos, signed-off reports, and raise issues, requests, or extras. Recorded time feeds payroll and hours reporting without a separate timesheet. The Pro plan adds branded quotes with e-signature, invoicing from signed-off bookings, purchase orders, and project margin reports. Xota supports web, iOS, and Android, and offers a public REST API for custom connections. There are no direct Xero, QuickBooks, or Sage integrations yet. Data is hosted in UK data centres and protected with TLS 1.2+ in transit, encryption at rest, and UK GDPR handling.
