Generation
Shift types, rules, qualifications and preferences in, a full period out. The planner stops building and starts reviewing.
Medical scheduling · compliant by construction
Who works when. And why.
No more evenings in Excel, garde swaps negotiated by text message, or rosters you cannot defend. Noviq builds the duty roster, checks every assignment against working-time law, and lets the team handle its own swaps without coming back to you.

What a department lives with today
Medical scheduling is a constraint problem. It is still handled in a spreadsheet.
Today
1 to 3 days a month in Excel
The planner stacks gardes, rest, leave and preferences by hand, often in the evening.
With Noviq: The solver produces a full, compliant period. You review it and publish.
Today
One sick call, and it all starts over
Finding cover without breaking a rest period or a cap takes ten phone calls.
With Noviq: The shift is published as open: only colleagues who stay compliant can take it.
Today
Garde swaps negotiated by text
The planner finds out afterwards, sometimes with a violation attached.
With Noviq: Swaps are proposed in the app and the rules settle them in a second, with the reason.
Today
No proof six months later
Inspection, dispute, audit: who can show that safety rest was respected?
With Noviq: Every assignment keeps the rules it was checked against. The report runs for any past period.
Today
"Why me again?"
Gardes, weekends and holidays always seem to land on the same people, and nobody can settle it.
With Noviq: Fairness counters the whole team can see. The split is no longer argued, it is read.
Today
Payroll re-keyed by hand every month
Variable pay read off a roster that no longer matches what was worked.
With Noviq: Variable pay comes from the roster as worked, ready for payroll export.

- Weekly cap Compliant
- Required qualification Compliant
- Fairness Compliant
Compliance and fairness
Rules are written once and applied everywhere: at generation, on every edit, on every swap, and in the report handed to management.

Establishment
Several sites and departments in one system: roles, audit log, payroll exports, calendars and time clock connected.
The bet
A roster you can defend line by line.
Other tools hand you a grid without saying why. Noviq records every constraint it applied. The planner knows why someone was placed, the practitioner knows why a swap was refused, and HR can trace every figure in a report back to the assignments behind it.
Example: a refused swapRefused
M. Ferreira offers their Saturday garde to L. Nguyen.
Weekly cap: L. Nguyen would reach 52 h this week, against a 48 h averaged maximum.
Who it is for
Bought by the establishment, used by the whole team.
- HR management
- Pay elements that come from the real roster, up-to-date leave balances, and proof of compliance for any past period.
- Head of service, care manager
- A period generated in minutes, a grid that flags what breaks before you save, and swaps that no longer go through you.
- Doctor, intern, nurse
- Their roster in their calendar, preferences filed online, a swap proposed and accepted in three taps, and counters that show the split is fair.
- IT management
- Governed accounts and roles, sessions revocable per device, audit log, GDPR export and erasure, hosting inside the European Union.
