Schedule shifts, email the lineup, watch them clock in. Actual hours feed your labor cost so you know which event ate margin.
Schedule the lineup before the event. Crew clocks in on their phones (the /crew/today page works as a bookmark). Actual clocked hours replace scheduled hours in the labor-cost calc on the event financial, so you see the real margin per event, not the budget version.
Change a call time and it changes on the shift, on the event, and on the page each crew member has bookmarked. Nobody is waiting on a group text that half the crew missed, and there is one version of Saturday rather than six.
Everyone on the roster, or just the bartenders: pick the titles, write the note, and each person gets their own copy with replies going to your business address. The dialog tells you how many it will reach and who has no email on file before you send, and every send sits in the email log.
Maître reads your event details + staff availability + standard ratios, suggests a lineup, assigns shifts. Last-minute swap? Just ask. It picks the best replacement based on availability + skill match.
“Staff Saturday's wedding for 150 plated”
MaîtreMaître proposes a lineup based on your typical 1:15 server ratio, your kitchen prep needs, and who's free. Asks you to confirm before booking.
“Maria called in sick, find a replacement for tonight”
MaîtreMaître scans available staff with the right title, ranks by recent hours + skill match, suggests two options with their phone numbers.
“What did labor cost on last weekend's events?”
MaîtreMaître pulls clocked-in hours × wage by event, returns the breakdown.

In the van, on the floor, walking out of the client's kitchen: tap the mic and say what changed. The recording is kept, the words come back spelled the way you spell them, Maître proposes the changes, and you approve each one with a tap.
