Works with what you already use

Your own gateway, your own WhatsApp number, your own mailbox. Where a reliable open-source project or open standard exists, Workpool uses it, so there are fewer accounts to sign up for and pay.

Your own account:
you connect your own account or keys.
Open source:
open-source software, credited below.
Open standard:
a file format or protocol anyone can use.
Sign in with provider:
you sign in with the provider to connect.

Open-source credits

Thank you to these projects. The AGPL-3.0 services run unmodified as separate programs that Workpool talks to over HTTP; their source is available from each project at the version we run.

Not connected

Services that need a partnership or an accredited provider, and what to use in the meantime.

  • Tenant screening (TPN, Experian, XDS)

    Needs a commercial agreement with the bureau.

  • PayProp

    Rent collection runs through your own payment gateway and the property ledger instead.

  • NightsBridge and SiteMinder

    Use iCal sync with booking sites instead of a channel manager.

  • Property24 and Private Property listing feeds

    Need a partnership with each portal.

  • Vehicle trackers (Cartrack, MiX, Webfleet)

    Fuel, trips and odometer are captured on the driver's phone; trips and fuel export as CSV.

  • Medical practice systems

    Patients, appointments and intake live in Workpool; no PMS or medical aid link.

  • Advanced electronic signatures (AES)

    Documents that need an accredited AES provider, such as suretyships, are out of scope.
