Set up in a minute
Four boxes, then a practice event and a short course that teaches by doing.
For organizations
Run the day. Verify in two minutes.
Built for the coordinator at the sign-in table, who vouches for every hour.
What you get
Less paperwork, and a record you can stand behind.
No clipboard on the day
A full-screen QR code, a live roster, and a name box for anyone without a phone.
Walk-ins handled
The QR card’s New here side signs walk-ins up and checks them in at once.
Paper sheets imported
Photograph a sheet. Claude drafts the rows; you confirm each one.
Letters and a funder report
One hour letter per volunteer, and totals a funder can read. PDF or CSV.
Badges you sign
The system finds who meets a rule. You sign each badge, with a note.
The parts that matter
Checking, not typing.
The two-minute verify
Every hour pre-filled. Every change explained.
When the event ends, the hours are already there from the scans.
- One tap fills in anyone who didn’t scan out, with the reason printed.
- Any changed hour needs a reason.
- Verify & close makes the rows read-only.
Letters and reports
The letter a school asks for, without the signing.
Each letter lists the events, roles, hours, any adjustment reasons and the verification dates.
- The funder report shows observed facts, not a score.
- Value of volunteer time at Independent Sector’s 2025 preliminary rate ($41.75 an hour in California).
Straight answers
What it won’t do for you.
It won’t vouch for you
The record is your organization’s statement. SycaMore Live records times; it doesn’t grade the work.
It won’t decide for you
AI drafts rows and wording. A coordinator confirms every row and every hour.
It won’t replace your sign-up tool
Keep what you use for sign-ups. SycaMore Live starts at the sign-in table.
