Employees tracked
Visa overstay fines avoided per year
Monthly reporting — down from 3 days
The challenge
GCC construction site managers heavily relied on manual paper muster sheets and easily cheated biometric thumbs to track thousands of multi-sponsor workers. This lack of visibility led to rampant 'buddy-punching,' unapproved off-site sign-ins, delayed monthly payroll reporting, and massive AED 250/day fines due to un-tracked visa and labor card expiries.
Our approach
Code Aquarium Technologies developed a robust, multi-lingual SaaS platform featuring an on-device, offline-capable AI facial recognition app for supervisors' phones alongside a React and Django web dashboard handling attendance and salary management for 8,000+ employees. The system integrates KML geofencing to prevent out-of-bounds check-ins, automated document countdown watchtowers, and deterministic AI insights that suggest optimal trade reallocations across active jobsites.
