Tether

High-efficiency automated scheduling driven by historical, live, and predictive data.

Automated scheduling built on historical, live, and predictive data for maximum efficiency. Tether connects fragmented POS and labor systems, standardizes the data, creates a first-pass 14-day schedule, and monitors Labor-to-Sales velocity in real time so managers can approve the right adjustment before profit leaks.
