Aeroster turns the original image of a roster into something you can actually use: a month you can read at a glance, a page your family can open to see where you are today, and a quick answer to "are we on the same flight?" when a swap needs arranging.
How it works
Upload the original image of your roster (not a photo or a screenshot of it), or type it in. The app reads it, then puts what it read in front of you, day by day, before any of it reaches your roster. Until you have been through it, the reading is a file waiting on disk and not a single day of it exists anywhere else — not on your calendar, not on a pilot's you share with, not on your family page — because a machine reading an 8-pixel-tall row of a photographed printout will get something wrong, and you are the one who can see it. You confirm, and the roster is yours.
From there:
- Roster — your month, as a calendar or a list.
- Together — the days you are on a flight with a pilot you are connected to.
- Swap — your roster against theirs, side by side, so a swap request is an easy ask instead of a long message.
- Family — a link and a four-digit PIN. No account for them, no app to install: they open it and see what you are doing today.
What it is not
It is not an airline product and has no connection to any airline. It does not hold anybody's roster but the uploader's own. It is not a way to find out what a colleague is flying — the only rosters you will ever see are ones a pilot shared with you deliberately.
Who is behind it
[TODO: owner to fill — who you are. Suggested shape, two or three sentences: your name or the name you want on it, that you are a line pilot, and the itch that made you build it.]
[TODO: owner to fill — company or sole trader name, registered address and registration number if there is one; this has to match the controller named on the privacy page]
