Idea Detail
ShiftStack
The Pitch
Independent restaurants and cafes struggle with last-minute shift swaps, labor forecasting, and tip splits. ShiftStack is a lean scheduling app that combines simple roster building, demand-driven shift suggestions, and tip pooling with one-click POS sync. - Problem: managers use spreadsheets or clumsy general tools causing overstaffing and compliance errors. - Who: single-location to 5-location restaurants and cafes using Square or Toast. - Approach: freemium scheduling + paid forecasting add-on priced per-location monthly.
