Rotaready pricing, and the flat-price alternative

Rotaready is a well-regarded hospitality rota and workforce platform, and it does not publish prices: you ask, they quote, and the figure depends on your sites, headcount and modules. If you searched for the price, that is the honest answer. Here is what else you should know before you book the call.

Monthly cost by team size

Staff	Rotaready	BatchStaff
5	Quote price on request	£10 / mo flat
12	Quote price on request	£10 / mo flat
25	Quote price on request	£10 / mo flat

Rotaready pricing from its own pricing page, July 2026, at the published entry rate; your real cost depends on tier and add-ons. Quote-only means no published price, so none is shown. BatchStaff prices exclude VAT.

Where Rotaready is the better fit

Built for hospitality groups: multi-site, demand forecasting from sales data, a managed rollout with onboarding support.
AI-assisted scheduling and forecasting, time and attendance, and payroll integrations that go beyond a CSV.
A mature product with a UK team, well suited to operators with several sites and an ops manager.

Where BatchStaff is different

One published price: £10 a month per venue, unlimited staff, every feature. No quote, no per-user tier, no onboarding fee.
An AI rota builder that works from availability, approved leave, roles, staffing needs and UK working-time rules, plus copy last week and a week check for the weeks you build by hand.
The Employment Rights Act 2025 preview: reasonable notice, short-notice pay and guaranteed-hours offers tracked against the proposed thresholds, which you set yourself.
Staff need nothing installed: a link, a phone browser, notifications on their phone.

The honest call

If you run a group of sites and want forecasting from your till data and someone to run the rollout, ask Rotaready for the quote. If you run one to three venues, want to know the price before you start, and want the rota built in 90 seconds, start a BatchStaff trial today and see it on your own team.

Questions people ask

How much does Rotaready cost?

Rotaready does not publish a price list. Pricing is by quote and depends on the number of sites, staff and modules. Third-party figures quoted online are estimates, so we do not repeat them.

Is there a free trial of Rotaready?

Rotaready offers demos rather than a self-serve trial. BatchStaff has a 30-day trial with no card, and a live demo you can click around without signing up.

Does BatchStaff do demand forecasting?

Not yet. It is on the roadmap as a later item. Today BatchStaff builds the rota from availability, leave, staffing needs and working-time rules, not from sales data.
