About

Built by founders who
understood the problem.

TIMEFRAME, LLC is a California-based compliance technology company. BreakPlate is our first product — built to solve the wage-and-hour liability crisis facing California employers right now.

Compliance shouldn't require
a compliance department.

California employers face $2 billion in annual avoidable wage-and-hour liability. The cause isn't bad intent — it's that no affordable real-time system has existed for the 98% of businesses that aren't large enough to have a compliance team.

BreakPlate changes that. Every California employer — from a 10-person restaurant to a 500-person retail chain — deserves the same legally defensible audit trail that Fortune 500 companies pay employment attorneys to construct after the fact.

We built the platform that builds that trail automatically, at every shift, before a claim is ever filed.

Legal advisory

Advised by Los Angeles's
leading wage claim attorneys.

BreakPlate's compliance framework — every attestation flow, every audit trail structure, every flag severity — is validated by a team of Los Angeles PAGA and wage claim attorneys with collectively over 90 years of legal experience defending and prosecuting California wage-and-hour cases.

Why this matters

Most compliance software is built by engineers who read the statutes. BreakPlate's attestation flows were designed around what actually holds up when a plaintiff's attorney is deposing your HR director. The difference is knowing which records courts find dispositive — and building toward those records from the ground up.
