For schools, workplaces and organizations

Attendance that takes care of itself.

Zentril records check-ins with a face scan at your site, keeps everyone’s schedule in their pocket, and gives admins one dashboard for the requests that need a decision.

The Zentril Home screen on a phone: Checked In for 1 hr 39 min since 7:34 AM at ACME School of Technologies, and a Now card for Sunday Open Lab with 3 hr 15 min left

Education

Classes, labs, exams and orientation days. Advisers as lead managers.

Workplaces

Shifts and teams. Managers see and record their own people.

Organizations

Any group that meets on a schedule and needs to know who came.

Features

Everything attendance needs, and nothing you have to chase.

The scan does the recording. The app does the reminding. The dashboard shows you only what still needs a decision.

  • Face-scan check-ins

    A site scans a member’s face and the check-in or check-out is recorded. No cards to carry, no codes to remember, nothing to tap.

  • Live on every phone

    Home shows Checked In and the time on the clock since the scan. Entries appear within seconds, even after the phone was asleep.

  • Schedules with Now and Up Next

    Global schedules for the whole institution, team schedules for a manager’s people. Time left, a progress bar and what starts next, in the institution’s timezone.

  • Requests, not spreadsheets

    Members add a missing entry or dispute a wrong one from the phone. The lead manager or an admin decides, with a remark the member sees.

  • Roles and reporting lines

    Members, supervisors, managers and admins. Several managers per person with one lead, and tags like Teacher or Principal to filter by.

  • Add to Home Screen

    Installs from the browser in a few taps, with its own icon, full screen, and light or dark to match the phone.

The apps

One system, two apps.

Members live in a phone app that feels native. Admins and managers run everything from a desktop dashboard.

How it works

A member’s first week, in four steps.

  1. 1

    Sign in with Google

    One tap on the phone. Phones and tablets open the app, desktops open the dashboard.

  2. 2

    Join with a code

    Members enter their institution’s enrollment code, fill in their details and take a short face scan. That sends a join request.

  3. 3

    Approve and organize

    An admin approves the request, choosing a role, reporting managers and tags. Members join the schedules that apply to them.

  4. 4

    Attendance takes care of itself

    Face scans at the site record time in and out. Corrections come in as requests, and managers decide them from the dashboard.

Corrections

Missed a scan? Send a request, not an email.

A member adds the missing check-in or check-out with the date, time and a reason, or disputes an entry with a corrected time. Their lead manager or an admin approves or declines it with a remark, and the member sees the outcome under My Requests.

  • Add a missing entry
  • Dispute a wrong time
  • Cancel while pending
  • See who decided, and why
My Requests: an approved request to add an entry, with who decided it and their remarks, and a pending change request with a Cancel Request button

FAQ

Questions people ask first.

How is attendance recorded?

A site at your institution scans a member’s face and records a check-in or check-out. The entry shows up on their phone within seconds. Admins and managers can also add an entry directly, and an approved request from a member adds one too.

Do members need to install an app?

No. Zentril runs in the browser on any phone or tablet. Members can add it to their Home Screen for a full-screen app with its own icon, and the app shows them how.

What if an entry is missing or wrong?

From the Attendance tab a member sends an Add Missing Entry request, or opens an entry and disputes it with a corrected time or a reason. Their lead manager or an institution admin approves or declines it, with a remark the member sees.

Who can see someone’s attendance?

The person, their reporting managers, and the admins of their institution. Supervisors see it read-only. Zentril staff see every institution to support it.

Is Zentril only for schools?

No. An institution can be a school, a workplace or any other organization. Each has its own enrollment code, timezone, sites, tags and schedules.

How do schedules work?

Admins create Global schedules anyone in the institution can join. Managers create schedules for their own team. Each one repeats on chosen weekdays or falls on a single date, in the institution’s timezone, and no one can be on two schedules that overlap.

Sign in with Google, enter your institution’s enrollment code, and you’re in. Admins land on the dashboard from a desktop.
