Every system in your restaurant records the shift. POS records what sold. Scheduling records who worked. Payroll records what it cost. Nothing runs the shift itself. PreShifter does. PreShifter is the real-time operating system for restaurant service. It replaces the printed pre-shift sheet, the group text, the whiteboard, and the "did anyone tell the closers?" with one app the entire team actually opens. Built by New York hospitality veterans with decades on the floor, not by a software company guessing what a Friday night feels like. BUILD THE PRE-SHIFT IN MINUTES The PreShift Builder turns your daily briefing into a living document. Add new items, specials, 86s, item counts, sections and table assignments, reservation counts, prep lists, side work, POS updates, events and announcements. Tap Publish and every team member gets a push notification with the full brief on their phone. When the night changes, update one entry and the whole team sees it instantly. Archive past PreShifts for reference. KEEP THE MENU CURRENT, ALWAYS Menu Manager is the single source of truth for every dish and drink. Ingredients, allergens, recipes, availability, and photos, searchable and sortable from any station. A new special goes in once and shows up for every server before the first table sits. No more allergen guesses at table 12. ONE CHAT FOR THE WHOLE TEAM Team Chat keeps service communication in one thread the entire staff can see. Text and photos, real-time, with admin controls to keep it clean and professional. No personal numbers, no lost group texts, no "I never got that message." TWO-WAY, NOT TOP-DOWN Staff can submit menu items and PreShift updates directly from the floor. Managers approve with one tap and the update goes live for everyone. The bartender who noticed the last bottle of mezcal, the server who caught the typo on the special: their intel makes the whole team better. BUILT FOR HOW RESTAURANTS ACTUALLY WORK - Roles that make sense: managers run the restaurant, staff join the team - Invite staff by name or approve their join requests - Staff can hold memberships at multiple restaurants and switch between them - Push notifications for new PreShifts, approvals, and messages - Sign in with Apple, Google, or email - Light and dark mode - Works on iPhone and iPad WHO IT'S FOR Full-service restaurants, bars, cafes, and small groups. GMs and owner-operators who are tired of repeating themselves. Chefs who want the floor to know what's 86'd before a guest orders it. Servers and bartenders who want to walk in already knowing the plan. WHY IT WORKS Pre-shift is the highest-leverage twenty minutes in a restaurant, and most places run it on paper and memory. PreShifter makes it consistent, instant, and impossible to miss. Fewer mistakes at the table. Faster alignment across FOH and BOH. Managers get their time back. Guests get a team that knows the menu. PreShifter sits on top of the tools you already use. It does not replace your POS, scheduling, or reservations. It runs the part of the day they don't touch. FREE FOR STAFF. MANAGERS SUBSCRIBE. Team members always use PreShifter free. Managers who create a restaurant choose a plan sized to their team: - Core: up to 25 team members - Pro: up to 60 team members - Pro Max: unlimited team members Monthly and annual plans available. Annual plans include two months free. Subscriptions are billed to your Apple ID and renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
