GeoWave · Field Force
Track Field Employees With the Phones They Already Carry
GeoWave verifies attendance with a selfie and GPS proof in under 3 seconds, keeps a live map of your field team through the day, and hands payroll a report it can actually run on.
Built and run by Aptivix in Gurugram · Teams of 10–200 field staff · No card required for the pilot
The 9 AM ritual
How Field Attendance Actually Works Today
If any of these four run your mornings, you're managing a field force on faith.
Attendance is a WhatsApp good-morning message
A 'GM sir' text at 9:02 proves someone woke up — not that they reached the territory. Yet that message becomes the attendance record payroll runs on.
Locations can be faked, shifts can be shared
Mock-location apps and a helpful colleague marking presence for two mean you pay full salaries for half a field force — and can never prove it.
Month-end payroll is a reconciliation project
Registers, call logs, and manager memory get stitched into a muster sheet over two late nights. Every dispute defaults in the employee's favour because there's no evidence either way.
At 3 PM, nobody can say where the team is
Between the morning briefing and the evening report, thirty people are effectively off the grid. Client escalations get answered with 'let me check and call you back'.
What GeoWave does
Check-In to Payroll, Verified at Every Step
Six capabilities that replace the WhatsApp thread, the register, and the guesswork in between.
Selfie check-in with GPS proof
Employees check in with a selfie stamped with GPS coordinates — verified in under 3 seconds. No biometric hardware, no queue at a machine the field team never visits.
Live team map, all day
During shift hours the app pings location every 10 minutes in the background and converts each ping to a readable address — so the answer to 'where is Ramesh?' is a glance, not a phone call.
Geofencing and day timelines
Draw a fence around the office or a client site and visits confirm themselves. Each employee's day compiles into a timeline of stays and durations — who went where, and for how long.
Leave requests inside the same app
Employees apply, managers approve, and the roster updates itself — so leave stops arriving as a morning phone call and never contradicts the attendance sheet.
Alerts before problems become patterns
Late arrivals and missed check-ins raise a flag the same morning, not at month-end — so a one-off gets a nudge and a habit gets a conversation.
Payroll-ready attendance reports
Days present, hours on site, late marks, and approved leave export in formats your HR and payroll tools accept — the two-night reconciliation becomes a download.
Trusted by field teams in logistics, retail, real estate, healthcare, FMCG distribution, and facility management.
Why teams switch
The Two Things GeoWave Replaces
Most teams arrive here from a biometric machine the field staff never touches, or a GPS tracker that only draws dots.
GeoWave vs biometric attendance machines
A wall-mounted fingerprint reader is fine for people who walk past a wall. Field teams don't.
₹15,000+ per device, per location — plus AMC and the day it stops reading thumbs
Zero hardware. The app runs on Android and iOS phones your team already carries
Only records presence at the machine — the field day is invisible
Verifies attendance wherever work happens: client sites, stores, warehouses, routes
Buddy-punching needs one shared thumb workaround or access card
A selfie with live GPS coordinates is one specific face in one specific place
GeoWave vs generic GPS trackers
A tracker sells you dots on a map. Ops and HR need the dots turned into attendance, leave, and payroll.
Shows where a phone is — you still maintain attendance somewhere else
Location, attendance, timelines, and leave live in one system of record
Raw coordinates that someone has to interpret
Pings converted to addresses and compiled into per-day stay timelines
No output payroll can use — month-end stays manual
HR and payroll-ready reports generated from verified check-ins

How the pilot works
From Sign-Up to a Verified Muster in 14 Days
- 01
Start the pilot in a day
Sign up for the 14-day free pilot — no card, no paperwork. We set up your shifts, sites, and geofences with you on a call.
- 02
Team installs, checks in
Employees download the app on their own phones and take their first selfie check-in the same morning. No training room required.
- 03
Two weeks of real data
Watch the live map, the timelines, and the late-arrival alerts run on your actual field days — not a demo dataset.
- 04
Decide with the report in hand
At day 14 you have a payroll-ready attendance report for the pilot period. If it earns its keep, pick a plan and continue without resetting anything.
FAQ
Field Employee Tracking — FAQs
GeoWave pings location once every 10 minutes and only during shift hours, so the battery cost of a full field day is a few percent — far lighter than continuous navigation. If GPS or the app is switched off, pings simply stop arriving and the gap shows on the manager's map and in the day timeline, timestamped and flagged. Silence is itself a signal, and it's visible the same day rather than at month-end.
This is exactly what selfie + GPS check-in is built against. Every check-in pairs a live selfie with GPS coordinates captured at that moment, so one person can't punch in for two, and a photo of a photo doesn't pass. Mock-location apps are detected and flagged. No system makes fraud impossible, but GeoWave makes it high-effort, evidenced, and easy to spot — which is what actually ends proxy attendance.
GeoWave runs on ordinary Android and iOS phones — the ones your field team already owns. There is no biometric machine, no GPS device, and no hardware line item at all. If a few employees have very old handsets, tell us the models during the pilot and we'll confirm compatibility before you commit.
The system compiles verified check-ins, hours on site, late marks, missed check-ins, and approved leave into attendance reports you can export in payroll-ready formats. Your HR team downloads the period, imports it into their payroll or HRMS tool, and processes salaries from verified data instead of reconstructed registers. Most teams cut month-end attendance work from days to under an hour.
You'll have two weeks of real attendance data and a payroll-ready report to judge it by. If you continue, pick a plan — Starter at ₹4,999/month for up to 15 employees, Growth at ₹9,999/month for up to 50 — and your setup, history, and geofences carry over untouched. If you don't, nothing is charged; the pilot needs no card to begin with, so there's nothing to cancel.
Yes — with the boundaries built in. Tracking runs only during defined shift hours; outside them the app sends nothing. Employees see exactly what is collected and when, install the app knowingly on their own phones, and check in with a deliberate action rather than being silently monitored. We also help you put a plain-language tracking policy in front of the team during onboarding, because a field force that understands the system disputes it far less.
