Marcus Bell · week of Oct 5 · Illinois
- Regular · 40:00$730.00
Regular: 40:00 (2400 min) × $18.25/h = 73000¢ exactly → $730.00. Rule straight_time: hours up to the 40:00 weekly threshold in the workweek starting October 5, 2026.
- Overtime · 8:00$219.00
Overtime: 8:00 (480 min) × $27.375/h (1.5 × $18.25) = 21900¢ exactly → $219.00. Rule weekly_overtime: 48:00 worked in the workweek starting October 5, 2026 is 8:00 over the 40:00 threshold (Illinois Minimum Wage Law, 820 ILCS 105/4a(1) — over 40 hours in a workweek at not less than 1.5x the regular rate; Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 207(a)(1); 29 C.F.R. Part 778 — over 40 hours in a workweek at not less than 1.5x the regular rate).
- Sent and not used · 4:00$73.00
Day-labor minimum: 4:00 (240 min) × $18.25/h (the agreed pay rate) = 7300¢ exactly → $73.00. Rule il_day_labor_minimum: on October 10, 2026 the worker was sent to the client and not used for 4:00; 0:00 were worked there, so 4:00 more are paid at the agreed rate, not as hours worked (Day and Temporary Labor Services Act, 820 ILCS 175/30(g); 56 Ill. Adm. Code 260.450(b) — sent and not utilized: at least 4 hours at the agreed rate; placed elsewhere the same shift: at least 2 hours).

Tabulado prepares payroll files and invoices. It never moves money; your payroll provider pays your people.1
Sample data
Built for the week as it really arrives. Messy, late and in more than one language, and still paid to the cent.

Two independent readings of every timesheet. A person decides only where they differ.
- FIG 0.2
Rules with their law
Federal, California, Illinois, Massachusetts and New Jersey, each line naming its citation.
- FIG 0.3

Gusto, ADP, QuickBooks, Paychex or Paylocity, with totals that must balance.
Monday at a staffing agency.
Monday at a staffing agency. Before Tabulado, and after.

Marcus Bell · $18.25/h · a sample week, paid live by the same code as the app
A worksite in any other state holds the week for a person. It never guesses.
Where the week goes. Tabulado writes the files. Money moves only where it moves today.

Nguyen, Tran — OT: 37 min written as 0.62 h (0.6166… h exactly, rounded up to the next hundredth so no worked time is lost). Gusto pays 0.62 h × $27.375/h = $16.97; Tabulado computed $16.88 (+$0.09).
Try the rest. These are the real pieces, working on sample data.

Social Security numbers deserve better than a spreadsheet. Tabulado treats them that way.
Encrypted inside the app
With a key kept outside the database. Screens show the last four digits only.
Blacked out before any AI reading
Anything shaped like a Social Security number or a birth date is removed from a photo first.
Every look-up logged
Only the Owner can see a full number, with a reason. The log can be added to, never edited.
