Geppy's MailClock

Overview
Geppy's MailClock is a web-based tool designed to solve a specific problem: managing team schedules and tracking work hours without requiring employees to install new apps, create accounts, or log into a web portal. It uses AI to generate an "App-in-Email" that functions entirely within standard email clients (like Gmail or Outlook).

Core Concept
Instead of a traditional backend database, the app uses the Admin's Email Inbox as the database. It generates a sophisticated HTML email containing the weekly schedule and interactive "Clock In/Out" buttons.

Key Features:

Team Roster Management:

1. • Admins can easily add and remove employees (Name and Email) via the web interface.

Visual Scheduler:

1. • Admins can assign specific shifts (Day, Start Time, End Time) to employees using a simple dashboard.

   • Supports multiple shifts per employee.

AI-Generated "Email App":

1. • The app utilizes Google's Gemini 2.5 Flash model to generate code for a professional, cross-client compatible HTML email.

   • This email serves as the "Employee Interface."

Zero-Infrastructure Time Tracking:

1. • Interactive Buttons: The generated email contains specific "Clock In" and "Clock Out" buttons for each employee.

   • Mailto Actions: Clicking a button doesn't open a website; it triggers a mailto: link that opens a pre-filled email draft on the employee's device.

   • Data Capture: The pre-filled email body prompts the employee to:

     • Confirm the Time.

     • Manually type their Location (since GPS is blocked in emails) with the option to request for them the attache a photo for future metadata (photo location data) examination.

     • Add Comments (e.g., "Running late due to traffic").

     • Allows for expense tracking With a prompt to upload a photo of receipt or mileage proof.

1. • Submission: The employee simply hits "Send," and the timestamped log arrives in the Admin's inbox.

2. Live Preview & Export:

   • Users can see a live preview of exactly how the email will look to their staff.

   • Provides the raw HTML code to copy and paste into an email client to send out to the team.

Use Case:

Ideal for small businesses, event coordinators, or field teams (like construction or catering) where setting up complex HR software is overkill, but a simple text message is too disorganized. It leverages the one tool everyone already has: Email.
