02 / WHY RELAY

RESTAURANTS DON’T FAIL
BECAUSE PEOPLE DON’T CARE.
INFORMATION JUST
DISAPPEARS.

ScheduleGroup chatPOSSpreadsheetPaperA quick wordSomeone’s memory

Restaurants already have tools.
The problem is what happens between them.

Relay is the dashboard above your existing software.
Your people, daily work and handoffs in one place.
Less chasing. Less switching. More context.

THE DASHBOARD FOR THE WHOLE SHIFT.

YOUR TEAM
HAS A SHIFT
TO RUN.

Keep the software that already works for your restaurant. Relay sits on top and gives the team one clear place to work from.

Who’s on. What needs doing. Who’s handling it. What carries into tomorrow. A connected dashboard for the whole operation.

Less software fatigue.
More time on the floor.

03 / THE OPERATING RECORD

ONE SHIFT.
CONNECTED.

From who’s on to what’s next.
The work belongs together.

YOUR SHIFT, IN ONE PLACE

One dashboard for the people, work and context of the shift, above the software you already use.

Explore the product

Start with the people on the shift. Make a change understandable to the people it affects.

Give recurring work a place in the day, from the first prep list to the last check.

A clear next action. An owner. A way to know when the work is finished.

Keep the way you do things close to the work itself.

Help the next person understand the work, without relying on whoever happens to be nearby.

The unexpected is part of the shift. Keep the response connected to what happened.

Carry the right context forward so the next team doesn’t have to start from zero.

SAME SHIFT. DIFFERENT QUESTIONS.

FOUNDER & CEO / SIX YEARS IN KITCHENS
EDMONTON / CANADA

Six years in kitchens, including becoming a sous chef at Earls. Alongside line cooks, dishwashers, servers, chefs and managers.

The same thing kept happening: people did the work, passed on what they could, and a lot of the story disappeared.

Relay comes from wanting that work to count.
