Motivate your crew with a live leaderboard
The leaderboard is right below — score your cleaners on the things that matter (attendance, quality, reliability) and it ranks them into a board that fuels healthy competition and shows you who’s carrying the team. The guide behind it covers measuring performance the right way.

What gets measured — and recognised — gets better
Cleaning is invisible work done alone, often at night, and the people who do it exceptionally rarely hear about it. That’s a retention problem and a quality problem: your best cleaners feel unseen, and there’s no gentle signal to the ones slipping. A simple, fair leaderboard fixes both — it recognises the top performers and makes standards visible without anyone having to nag.
This page gives you both halves: a free leaderboard that turns attendance, quality, and reliability into a live ranking, and a short guide to measuring performance in a way that motivates instead of demoralises.
Built for commercial cleaning. Your team’s scores stay in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
The guide to measuring performance that motivates
A leaderboard is powerful and easy to get wrong. Measure the right things, keep it fair, and it lifts the whole team. Here’s how.
Measure what actually matters
Score the things that define a great cleaner — and that people can control:
- Reliability & attendance. Showing up, on time, as scheduled is the foundation everything else rests on.
- Quality. Inspection scores or client feedback — the actual standard of the work.
- Consistency. Not one great week, but a steady level you can build a client promise on.
Avoid measuring pure speed — it just trains people to cut corners. Weight quality and reliability.
Keep it motivating, not demoralising
- Be transparent. Everyone should know how the score is calculated; a mystery ranking breeds resentment.
- Recognise, don’t just rank. Celebrate the top and the most-improved — a leaderboard is a recognition tool first.
- Coach the bottom privately. Use a low score to start a supportive conversation, not to shame in public.
- Reset regularly. A fresh period gives everyone a new shot and keeps it from calcifying.

Invisible work vs. a live leaderboard
Same crew, same standards — one leaves great work unseen, the other measures and celebrates it. Here’s roughly what the retention difference is worth.

Replacing a trained cleaner costs weeks of hiring and lost quality — on a wage bill this size, the turnover that recognition prevents is worth roughly a year in avoided churn.
Recognition works better with real data behind it
A leaderboard is only as fair as the numbers feeding it. Swept captures the attendance and inspection data automatically — verified clock-ins and photo-scored quality — so your rankings reflect what actually happened on site, not a gut feel, and your recognition lands as earned.
