How Locumo works

Add the shift, see what it's worth and when to leave, then create and send the invoice, track payment, and export clean records.

Log

Add shifts from wherever they arrive

However it reaches you, log it in seconds. Choose a method on the right.

Invoice

Prepare and send invoices in less time

Locumo creates an invoice from each shift. Send it yourself, or have Locumo send it after the shift. It tracks the payment terms and follows up if an invoice becomes overdue.

Questions

Good to know

Who is Locumo for?

Built for UK locum optometrists, and just as useful for opticians, dentists, pharmacists and GPs. Anyone self-employed who covers shifts across practices will feel at home.

Does Locumo work offline?

Yes. Log a shift in a clinic with no signal and it syncs to your account as soon as you're back online.

Is it on both web and iPhone?

Both, on the same account. Log a shift on your phone, then do your invoicing on a laptop later.

Will the exports work for my accountant?

Yes. The Accountant Pack is a summary PDF plus shift, invoice and mileage CSVs for any period, ready to hand straight over at tax time.

A note from the maker

Hi, I'm a UK-based optometrist. For a long time I looked for an elegant way to bring my work calendar, invoicing, mileage and everything else together in one place. I couldn't find one, so I built it.

Locumo is built to be a calm, tidy planner that makes the admin side of locum work simple, quick and a little less daunting.
