Employee Scheduling Built for Restaurants

Restaurant scheduling lives and dies on call-outs, split shifts, and last-minute swaps — and a group text can't handle any of it. We build a web-based shift board your front- and back-of-house team can open from any phone, so nobody can say "I didn't know I was on."

A no-show at the dinner rush with no fast way to find coverage

Why a custom system fits restaurants

Restaurants run on roles, not just headcount — you need three servers, two cooks, and a host on a Friday, not "five people." Off-the-shelf apps schedule bodies; we model your stations, certifications, and availability so the board enforces the coverage you actually need, and reminders go out before each shift to keep the no-show rate down.

Frequently asked questions

Can it handle front-of-house and back-of-house separately?

Yes. We model each role and station so the board shows whether a shift is actually covered — not just how many people are on.

How do servers swap shifts?

Staff request a swap in the system from their phone; the manager approves or denies with one tap, and the board updates instantly. No more verbal handoffs.

How much does it cost?

Restaurant scheduling systems start from $1,900 one-time. Multi-location setups are quoted after a short workflow call.
