Built By Someone Who's Been In The Weeds
Chefly Schedules was built by a restaurant industry veteran, not a software company guessing at what restaurants need. Its founder grew up in a motel and restaurant combo his family ran, and has worked nearly every station since: fish fry, Italian, McDonald's, sandwich shop, frozen meal prep, hibachi. He's eaten his way through 26 states and picked up techniques in kitchens in Honduras and China along the way.
He's the one who's answered the phone at 5:15pm when a cook didn't show. "I built the tool I wish I had," he says. Now available on iOS and Android.

Put scheduling, role-based credentials, and team communication in one clean, fast platform so you spend less time chasing people and more time running your operation.
Line Blast
MVP FeatureSomeone calls out 45 minutes before a dinner rush. Or the local high school football team just won and forty of them are walking through your door right now. Either way, you need bodies, fast.
Line Blast is a single floating button, always one tap away. Hit it, type what you need, and it instantly reaches every employee who isn't already on the schedule for that shift. No group texts, no phone tree, no hoping someone checks Facebook. Just a direct line to whoever's available, the moment you need them.
Free Employee Accounts
Every employee account is free, always. Once they're on the schedule, they see it on their phone, not a printout taped to the wall in the back.
And they don't have to go looking for it. Employees get a notification the day they're working, so nobody "forgets" they had a shift. Fewer no-shows, fewer excuses, less chasing people down.
Bilingual Staff Support
Communicate with your entire staff regardless of device or native language. Chefly Schedules natively supports bilingual teams in English and Spanish using the 'en' | 'es' language enumeration.
It's not just about translating the interface. Push notifications and message alerts adapt dynamically: each employee's app settings determine the language they receive scheduling messages in, keeping everyone synced automatically.
Scheduling That Doesn't Eat Your Afternoon
Building a schedule shouldn't take longer than working the shift itself. Drag and drop employees into open slots, then use Clone to carry a solid week forward and cover the entire month in a few clicks.
Do it from your phone between tickets, a tablet in the office, or a computer at home. Chefly Schedules works the way you actually run your business, not the other way around.
Employee Requests, Handled in the App
Time off, shift swaps, and sick calls used to mean texts at 11pm or a sticky note nobody remembers to check. Now employees submit requests directly in the app, and managers approve or deny them in a couple taps. It's all in one place, with a record of who asked for what and when.
