Full platform tour

Every capability your restaurant runs on, in one place.

Forecast-aware rota, a dedicated staff app, AI advice you can measure, deep analytics from your own till, team and compliance tooling, and one-click integrations. This is the full product, not a highlights reel.

Forecast-aware Rota Builder

Build the week against predicted covers, not last week's guess.

The week grid shows predicted covers and revenue alongside every shift you assign, so you staff against what tonight is likely to look like, not what you hope it will be. Drag roles across kitchen, bar, and floor while labour cost % updates live, colour-coded green, amber, or red against your target.

Gap detection flags real problems: two or more consecutive understaffed hours where you are meaningfully under target. A single thin hour on a quiet Tuesday stays quiet. Nobody gets pinged for noise nobody could fix anyway.

Work in draft until the numbers look right, then publish. Publishing notifies affected staff and creates a real audit trail per shift, so you always know who was scheduled, when it went live, and what changed.

  • Predicted covers and revenue on the grid

  • Live labour cost % vs target

  • Gap detection (2+ consecutive hours)

  • Draft and publish with staff notification

  • Per-shift audit trail on publish

  • Colour-coded cost health

Team & compliance

Your people, your rates, your risk flags. All in one record.

Run a full role taxonomy with versioned pay that never corrupts history, auto-calculated holiday allowance, and till-code linking into analytics. Compliance groundwork flags scheduling risk early without QuantDine pretending to be a certified authority.

Team management

Every role, every rate change, every holiday day accounted for.

A complete role taxonomy covers Owner, Manager, Head Chef, Chef, Kitchen Porter, Bar, Waiter, Host, Runner, and Supervisor. Assign once and roles flow through rota, labour costs, and permissions without duplicate setup.

Pay rates are versioned, so a rate change never corrupts historical cost data. Holiday allowance is auto-calculated with entitlement, days used, and days remaining, tied to a business-wide reset date you control. Link till codes to staff and their session performance follows them in analytics.

  • Full role taxonomy (10 roles)

  • Versioned pay rates

  • Historical cost data preserved

  • Holiday entitlement auto-calculated

  • Used and remaining days

  • Business-wide reset date

  • Till-code linking

Compliance groundwork

See scheduling risk before it becomes a conversation you did not want.

Advisory flags surface rest break gaps and 48-hour average working week pressure as you build the rota, so owners can adjust before the week goes live. QuantDine helps you stay ahead of scheduling risk. It does not position itself as a certified compliance authority, and it never auto-changes a published rota on your behalf.

Flags sit alongside labour cost health and gap detection, so compliance awareness is part of the same workflow where you already make staffing decisions, not a separate audit you run once a month.

  • Rest break advisory flags

  • 48-hour week average warnings

  • Visible while building the rota

  • Advisory only, never auto-enforced

  • Not a certified compliance tool

  • Owner stays in control of publish

Staff App

Built for casual staff who will not adopt a heavy system.

The Staff App is a deliberately minimal surface with an entirely separate login from the owner and manager dashboard. A compromised staff account can never see revenue, costs, or business data. That boundary is architectural.

My Shifts shows published rotas only, never drafts. Swap requests open to any same-role colleague to claim, then route to the manager for one-tap approval. Holiday requests follow the same flow. The Today view is zero-financial-data by design: predicted covers, tonight's push item by name only, weather, and their own shift. Install it to a phone home screen like a native app.

  • Separate login from manager dashboard

  • Published shifts only

  • Same-role swap requests

  • One-tap manager approval

  • Holiday requests same flow

  • Today view with no financial data

  • Installable to home screen

To-do & staff announcements

Manager checklists and one-way News, without another app.

A lightweight daily and weekly operational checklist lives where managers already work: opening tasks, closing tasks, prep reminders, admin items, all ticked through beside the rota and forecasts. No separate tool that nobody opens on a busy Friday.

Paired with a simple one-way News feed on the Staff App Today view: predicted covers, tonight's push item by name, weather. No group chat, no two-way messaging, no financial data ever surfaced to staff devices.

  • Opening and closing checklists

  • Prep and admin reminders

  • Daily or weekly cadence

  • One-way News feed on Today view

  • Covers and push item by name

  • No chat or financial data

Forecasting & AI advice

Morning intelligence you can trust, advice you can measure.

Every morning, a fresh AI demand forecast covers predicted covers, a revenue range, and a stated confidence level, built from your trading history, weather, and local events. The weekly rota summary is written in plain English and grounded strictly in your real numbers.

Advice cards surface specific, actionable recommendations with prediction ranges rather than false precision. Each card tracks against a specific metric over 90 days with checkpoints at day 28, 60, and 90. Contamination detection flags when two tracked cards overlap on the same metric, so you are not double-counting outcomes.

QuantDine Chat lets an owner ask plain-English questions over their own restaurant data and get numbers back, not a report queue. Every AI output states its confidence, never presents thin data as certainty, and stays advisory. A human approves before anything touching pay or scheduling goes live.

  • Daily covers and revenue forecast

  • Weather and local events factored in

  • Weekly rota summary in plain English

  • Advice cards with prediction ranges

  • 90-day tracking with day 28/60/90 checkpoints

  • Contamination detection on overlapping cards

  • QuantDine Chat over your own data

  • Human approval before changes go live

Targets & measurement

Targets that respect how restaurants actually trade.

Day-weighted targets reflect real trading rhythm. Saturday is worth more than Tuesday, not the same arbitrary daily goal. Set targets as a fixed amount, percentage growth on last year, or with monthly seasonal multipliers. A 52-week performance heatmap shows seasonal rhythm at a glance.

Every AI recommendation is measured against a specific metric with year-on-year comparison controlling for seasonality. Closure detection excludes temporary closures from averages, and a 150-day hard cap ensures tracking never runs indefinitely.

  • Fixed, YoY %, or seasonal multipliers

  • Weekly target progress tracking

Analytics

Three lenses on the same till data. Revenue, menu, and floor.

Everything pulls from your connected POS. No industry benchmarks, no exported spreadsheets. Revenue trends, menu engineering, and waiter performance each get the depth they deserve, because a number on its own rarely tells you what to do next.

Revenue

See the rhythm of your trading week in minutes, not hours.

Daily, weekly, and seasonal revenue trends from your own POS data, with any period compared against the same period last year, adjusted for day of week so you are not fooled by calendar quirks.

Best hour, best session, and revenue by day of week sit at a glance. Weekly targets show live progress so you know mid-week whether you are on pace, not after the tills are counted on Monday.

  • Daily to seasonal revenue trends

  • YoY compare adjusted for day of week

  • Best hour and best session

  • Revenue by day of week

  • Weekly targets with live progress

  • Your POS data, not benchmarks

Menu

Know what to reprice, what to push, and what is dragging margin.

A full menu engineering matrix classifies every item as a star, ploughhorse, puzzle, or dog, so you see margin and popularity together, not in separate reports that never get reconciled.

Course attach rates, food versus drinks split, and weekly movers are tracked automatically. The items that need a price change, a push from the pass, or a quiet retirement stop hiding in aggregate totals.

Operations

Waiter performance by session, not gut feel after a hard Saturday.

Waiter performance by session bands staff into star, strong, standard, and watch tiers, linked through till codes so attribution follows the person on the floor, not a generic shift total.

Revenue per session is tracked against trend and year-on-year, so coaching conversations start from data you already collect, not anecdotes from one bad table on one night.

  • Performance by session

  • Star, strong, standard, watch tiers

  • Till-code linked attribution

  • Revenue per session vs trend

  • Year-on-year session comparison

  • Coaching signals from live data
