Clock-ins you can actually trust.
Photo-verified punches, server-stamped times, and daily summaries that roll straight into payroll — attendance your payroll person doesn't have to second-guess.
Every punch, proven
The clock is only as good as the evidence behind it.
Photo-verified clock-ins
Require a quick photo at time-in, time-out, or both. Each punch carries its evidence — buddy punching leaves a picture behind.
Server-stamped time
Punches are recorded on the server clock, not the device. Editing the phone's clock can't rewrite a shift — the recorded time is authoritative.
Private photo evidence
Photos sit in private storage — never on a public URL. Employees see their own; managers and HR open evidence through short-lived links.
Double-tap safe
A shaky connection or a fast second tap can't create duplicate logs — punches are idempotent, and retries replay the same record.
Corrections with approval
Forgot to clock out? The employee files a fix request, a manager approves or rejects it, and the original punch stays on record — audited.
Payroll-ready summaries
Each day rolls up into worked hours, overtime, and incompletes — approved summaries feed pay runs without re-encoding.
Built for the floor, not just the office
An employee opens TUKO, taps Time In, snaps the photo your policy requires, and confirms. The server records the exact time — not whatever the phone says — and the employee sees that recorded time right away. At the end of the shift, Time Out works the same way and TUKO computes the duration.
The details that usually break timekeeping are already handled: double-taps and retries can't duplicate a punch; overnight shifts are grouped by your organization's timezone so a shift past midnight still produces one correct summary; suspended or separated staff can't clock; and a missing clock-out shows up as incomplete instead of silently disappearing.
Privacy is scoped, not sprayed: attendance photos live in private storage, path-locked to your workspace, and only the employee and authorized managers can open them — through links that expire. TUKO captures photos as evidence, not biometrics: there is no facial recognition and no identification scoring. Your workspace controls whether photos are required at all.

Attendance questions, answered
What is a photo-verified clock-in?
When photo verification is enabled, the employee snaps a quick photo at clock-in (and clock-out, if you require it). The photo is attached to that punch as evidence, so a co-worker can't clock in on someone's behalf — the classic buddy-punching problem — without leaving a picture behind.
Can an employee fake their clock-in time?
No. TUKO records each punch using the server clock, not the device clock. Changing the time on the phone doesn't change the recorded timestamp — the device time is kept only as diagnostic context.
Who can see attendance photos?
Photos live in private storage — never public. The employee can see their own photos, and authorized managers and HR can view evidence through short-lived, expiring links. Photos are deleted automatically 60 days after the punch by default (admins can set 1–365 days); the attendance record itself is kept. TUKO does not perform facial recognition or biometric identification on these images.
Is the photo required for every punch?
That's your policy, not ours. Workspace admins can require a photo on clock-in, on clock-out, both, or neither — and can disable self-service clocking entirely if you only use manager-entered attendance.
How does TUKO handle overnight or graveyard shifts?
Punches are grouped by your organization's timezone, so a shift that crosses midnight still produces one correct worked-duration summary — with no manual splitting.
Attendance your payroll can stand on.
