Take Control of Your Largest Controllable Expense.

LaborFlowIQ helps you tighten schedules without hurting service quality.


Know the Right Number of Hours for Every Shift.

Most restaurant schedules are built from habit — not data. LaborFlowIQ calculates exactly how many labor hours each shift can afford based on your forecasted sales and target labor percentage.

Bottom line: Stop guessing. Start scheduling with precision.


Cut Excess Labor Without Cutting Service.

Lean doesn’t mean understaffed. LaborFlowIQ highlights where you are overstaffed, where you’re at risk of slow ticket times, and how to rebalance hours while keeping guest experience intact.

Bottom line: Run leaner without burning out your team.


Daily Operational Clarity for Managers.

Your managers finally get a simple, reliable reference for scheduling each shift. No spreadsheets. No guesswork. Just the numbers that drive profitable labor planning.

Bottom line: Consistent labor control across every shift.
