Comparison
DailyBrew vs Buddy Punch
Buddy Punch had the right idea with IP Address Lock, but bolts it onto a generic time clock with face recognition and photo-on-punch. DailyBrew makes device + IP the primary defense — and never photographs your staff.
| DailyBrew | Buddy Punch | |
|---|---|---|
| Anti-buddy-punching | Device + IP + NFC tag | Face ID + photo at punch |
| IP / network lock | Primary defense | Available (add-on) |
| Photo / biometric on punch | None | Yes |
| Free tier | Up to 10 active staff | No free tier |

Which one suits you?
Both believe in network-based verification. The difference is emphasis: DailyBrew leads with device + IP and skips the camera entirely, so you get the defense without photographing your team every shift.
