SmartBarrel delivers verified construction time tracking that helps contractors capture accurate labor hours, eliminate buddy punching, and reduce payroll friction across the field and the office. Built by a founder with over a decade in construction, SmartBarrel was created to solve the same problems seen on every jobsite: unreliable timesheets, time theft, payroll disputes, and labor costs that never quite matched reality. SmartBarrel combines AI-powered biometric facial verification, purpose-built jobsite time clocks, and a mobile app to capture labor time accurately at the source. Workers clock in on site using facial verification, whether on a dedicated time clock or a shared mobile device, and receive immediate confirmation so they know their time was captured correctly. Because labor time data is verified and clean, SmartBarrel supports complex overtime rules, union requirements, and cost-code–level tracking without manual rework. Foremen spend minutes reviewing time, payroll teams receive payroll-ready labor data they can trust, and project teams gain clear visibility into labor productivity without chasing corrections. SmartBarrel supports both hourly and salaried teams, enabling contractors to track time consistently across their workforce. SmartBarrel is trusted by trade contractors and self-perform general contractors who need construction time tracking they can rely on to run their operations. SmartBarrel makes it standard.
