Cafe Simply: Staff Manager

Cafe Simply is a cafe management app that helps owners, managers and head baristas run daily operations from one place — staff schedules, payouts, tasks, checklists, recipes, inventory, team chat and work reports, without spreadsheets, paper notes or endless message threads. Built for coffee shops, bakeries and small cafe chains, Cafe Simply keeps your team aligned across shifts and locations. STAFF SCHEDULING AND SHIFT MANAGEMENT Create a shift schedule for your team, view the monthly calendar, track vacations and keep everyone updated in real time. Employees check their work schedule in the app instead of asking about every change. SHIFT CHECK-IN AND HOURS Staff check in and out of shifts from their phone. See who is actually on site, review check-in history and use real worked hours when it is time to calculate pay. FLEXIBLE PAYOUTS AND SALARY Pay each person the way your cafe actually works. Choose hourly rates, per-shift pay, fixed monthly salary, revenue-dependent pay or a variable amount — and mix different models across the same team. Payouts are calculated from real worked hours, employees can see what they have earned, and every payment is recorded so nothing is settled from memory. One of the most used parts of the app, and it keeps growing. TEAM CHAT BUILT FOR SHIFTS Message your team where the work already happens. Group chats per location, direct messages, photos, documents, replies, mentions and pinned messages — so shift handovers and urgent questions stop getting lost in personal messengers. TASK MANAGEMENT FOR CAFE TEAMS Assign tasks with deadlines, priorities and locations. Set up recurring routines that repeat daily, weekly or on chosen days of the month. Track what is open, done or overdue so nothing gets lost between shifts. DAILY CHECKLISTS FOR ROUTINE CONTROL Set up opening checklists, closing checklists and cleaning routines. Employees complete each step in the app and managers monitor progress without chasing anyone in chat. INVENTORY AND STOCK CONTROL Track goods, ingredients and consumables across locations. See low stock before it becomes a problem, watch expiry dates and run stock counts so your cafe stops discovering shortages mid-shift. RECIPES AND INSTRUCTIONS IN ONE PLACE Store drink recipes, preparation steps, cleaning procedures and SOP-style instructions where your team can find them. Baristas get quick access during a shift and new team members learn faster. SUPPLIER AND PRODUCT MANAGEMENT Keep supplier contacts, product notes and purchasing information together, so your team finds the right details when they need them. WORK REPORTS AND TEAM MONITORING Review completed work, track execution and keep a clearer picture of what is happening across your locations. Cafe Simply helps managers stay in control even when they are not on site.
