About Us

We have been doing this job since 2011. That year we released GeT (“Gestionale per turni”), used by associations to fill their shifts; since 2021 it has been called AppToMe and lives on every volunteer's phone.

Fifteen years in four screenshots

The screenshots below are the real ones, with test data. The first is rather endearing.

  1. 2012

    A table and nothing else

    At the end of 2012 the second version of GeT, only just started, looked like this: the days of the week, the shifts, the roles required. No colours. Yet a volunteer could already sign up from home, and the organiser could see which shifts were still uncovered.

    Colour arrives

    Green when a role is covered, red when someone is missing: you get it without reading. The people directory and the first statistics appear.

    The last version of GeT

    Several calendars, roles with their hierarchies, a minimum and a maximum number of people for each shift type, notifications, statistics per person and per group. By then GeT did almost everything a branch needs, but it was born for a computer screen.

    AppToMe, on every volunteer's phone

    In 2021 GeT became AppToMe. Shifts are picked up and swapped from the phone, and around the calendar we have added vehicles, courses and certifications, checklists, the warehouse and accounting.

What has not changed

Shifts, people, vehicles, training, statistics: the sections of GeT are still the menu items of AppToMe. We have rewritten everything more than once, but the job is the same: knowing who is on tonight, and who is missing.

Who is behind it

AppToMe is developed by Pagina46 Srl, in Lucca, Italy. If you want to see what it looks like today, write to us: we will show it to you on a test association.

The people

When GeT was born, Paola was the shift coordinator of the Croce Verde ambulance association and Matteo a physics student with a passion for computing. She knew what it takes to cover a shift, he wrote the software. Today Paola looks after support and Matteo development.

Who we are

We have been building shift software since 2011.

In 2011 we released GeT (“Gestionale per turni”), a web app for volunteer organisations. It was built for whoever had to fill shifts by phone: it showed which volunteers were free, kept track of who had said yes and who had said no, and warned you if someone had already been called by another operator. A year later, at the Croce Verde in Ponte a Moriano, a touchscreen at the station replaced the paper rota on the noticeboard.

The organisations using GeT told us what wasn't working, and that is where roles, per-shift requirements, separate calendars and reminders to volunteers came from. You'll find all of them in AppToMe, born in 2021 to live on every volunteer's phone.

Today Pagina46 also works with artificial intelligence, for associations and companies, and we use it where it saves organisers time. The job has been the same since 2011: making sure every shift is covered.
