Calm by default
Software should reduce noise, not add to it. We design for clarity and quiet confidence — fewer screens, fewer surprises, less to think about.
About Raika
Raika began with a simple frustration: planning a team's week shouldn't take a Friday evening and a spreadsheet nobody trusts. So we built something calmer.
Our mission
Make workforce planning simple, reliable and fair — for every shift team in Switzerland.
Why we built it
Most small and mid-sized shift businesses run on a patchwork: a spreadsheet for the rota, a group chat for swaps, a notebook for hours, and a monthly scramble to make payroll add up. It's slow, it's stressful, and it quietly breaks working-time rules.
We thought planning should feel like the rest of a well-run business — calm, clear, and trustworthy. So we built one system that turns availability, skills and Swiss working-time rules into a published schedule in minutes, keeps balances everyone can trust, and runs in any browser.
Today Raika helps restaurants, retailers, care teams and trades across Switzerland plan smarter and move faster — without losing control.
What we believe
Software should reduce noise, not add to it. We design for clarity and quiet confidence — fewer screens, fewer surprises, less to think about.
A balance is only useful if everyone believes it. Hours, overtime and approvals stay transparent and consistent — for managers and employees alike.
