Save your time

The whole operation,
one slide at a time.

Your revenue, your time, your risk and your team, walked through the way an owner would see them. Flip through it, or download it and share it with your partners and managers.

Stop being the system that holds it all together.

Right now the restaurant runs because you're there to connect it. You chase the closeout, repeat the specials, and find out what food cost did a week too late. Crewli puts all of it in one app your team actually opens, so the place runs the same way whether you're standing in it or not.

Your team gets one app. You get the whole picture.

Staff open it on shift to work the opening list, check a recipe, read tonight's specials and sign off on their station. You and your managers see it all come together on one dashboard, with the numbers behind every shift.

We build it. You run the restaurant.

No software to set up and no templates to fill in. We load your checklists, recipes, menus, training and handbook into an app with your name and logo on it, and we keep it current as the restaurant changes.

Owner's to-do
What was food cost this week?
Who signed off on the closeout?
Sales vs labor last night??
Where's the recipe binder
Train the new server Tues
Prep list taped to the walk-in
Send handbook PDF (again)
…and five different logins
Numbers a week late
Five apps, five logins
Nobody's name on it
Binders nobody opens

The restaurant runs on five tools and one tired owner.

Look at how most restaurants actually run. Sales live in the POS. The schedule lives in another app. Recipes are in a binder on a shelf, training is a folder of PDFs, the handbook got emailed once, and the real shift handoffs happen in a group text. Every piece works on its own. None of it adds up to a picture of how the restaurant is doing.

So the owner becomes the system. You find out food cost crept up when the invoices land, not while you could still do something about it. You learn the closeout got skipped when the morning crew walks into it. A new hire gets trained by whoever's working that day, so every new hire learns it a little differently. Nobody's being careless. There's just no single place where the work, the standard and the numbers meet.

That costs you in four places. Revenue leaks out through waste, inconsistent portions and overstaffed shifts you only notice later. Time goes to chasing information and retraining the same things. Risk builds when the standard lives in someone's head instead of in writing. And accountability disappears when nobody's name is on the work. Restaurant operations software fixes all four by putting the whole operation in one place your team actually opens.

The whole restaurant, in one app.

Real screens from a real build. Your team works from their phones, and every screen does one of four jobs: protect your revenue, save your time, lower your risk or hold your team accountable.

Revenue you can see

Sales per labor hour with 7 and 30 day averages and a trend line, so you spot a bad week while it's still this week.

Same plate, same cost

Every recipe with a photo of the finished plate and batch scaling built in, so portions and food cost hold steady no matter who's cooking.

Say it once, not every shift

The feature, the 86 list and upcoming events on every phone, so you stop repeating tonight's specials to each person who walks in.

Ready before they hit the floor

Managers run a quick menu quiz and every score is saved, so you know who knows the menu, allergens included, before they take a table.

Nothing skipped at close

Front and back of house closeouts on the phone, with what's done and what's still open visible before anyone clocks out.

A name on every sign-off

Every station check is signed by the person who did it, so accountability stops being a conversation and becomes a record.

Four things every owner is buying.

Protect your revenue

Sales per labor hour and food cost sit next to the work that drives them, and every recipe scales by batch so each plate costs what it should. You see a margin problem while you can still fix it, not when the invoices land.

Save your time

Specials, the 86 list, recipes, training and the handbook all live in the app, so the same questions stop landing on you. New hires learn from their phones, and you can take a night off without the phone buzzing.

Lower your risk

Your standards live in writing instead of in someone's head: allergens and pairings on every dish, opening and closing checklists, and a handbook everyone can pull up. Fewer things slip through the cracks on a busy night.

Hold your team accountable

Every checklist, station check and closeout is signed by the person who did it, with the time. Quiz scores and shift notes are saved too, so you know who did the work and who didn't.

One app, not five.

Most restaurants piece their operation together from separate tools, each with its own login and its own bill. Crewli is one custom app that covers the whole operation, built and managed for you.

How the pricing works

There's a one-time setup fee, quoted upfront before you commit to anything. That pays for the build. We learn how your restaurant runs, then load your checklists, recipes, menus, training and handbook into an app with your name on it. By the time your team opens it, it already looks and works like your restaurant.

After that it's a flat $150 a month for the whole thing. Not per user, not per location module, not per feature. It covers hosting, the database, updates and maintenance, plus a real person on your team whenever you need something changed.

Compare that to what most restaurants pay now: one subscription for checklists, another for recipes, another for training, and an owner who spends hours stitching them together. Crewli replaces the patchwork with one system, and when the menu changes or you add a new routine, we update the app for you.

Live in your restaurant, without the setup headache.

1. We walk the operation

We go through how your restaurant runs today, from open to close, and gather the recipes, routines and training you already have.

2. We build and load your app

Your checklists, recipes, menus, training and dashboard go into one app under your brand. You review it before the team sees it.

3. The restaurant runs on it

Your team works from their phones, you watch it all from the dashboard, and we keep the app current as the restaurant changes.

Built around your kind of restaurant.

Every restaurant runs differently, so we build only the sections yours actually uses.

Full-service & fine dining

Menu knowledge, pairings, station checks and closeouts for both sides of the house, in one app.

Quick service & fast casual

Tight routines, fast training for high turnover, and labor numbers that tell you when a shift is overstaffed.

Bars & breweries

Specs, closeouts and stock in one place, with a name on every sign-off when the night wraps up.

Groups with more than one location

Every location built on the same standard, with pricing for the group agreed upfront.

We're not a software company that wandered into restaurants. We've worked the line, run the floor, and built Crewli for the people still doing it.

Restaurant operations software, answered.

What is restaurant operations software?

Restaurant operations software is the system a restaurant runs its day-to-day on: the checklists and closeouts, prep lists, recipes, menus, training, shift notes and the numbers that tell you how the night went. Instead of spreading that across paper, group texts and a handful of separate apps, it lives in one place your whole team uses.

Is Crewli software or a restaurant operations app?

Both. Crewli is restaurant operations software that your team uses as an app on their phones, and that you and your managers run from a dashboard. Staff open it on shift to work their checklists and look up recipes, and the owner sees the whole operation from the same place.

What parts of the restaurant does Crewli cover?

Everything that protects your revenue, saves your time, lowers your risk and holds your team accountable: sales per labor hour and food cost, opening and closing checklists with sign-offs by name, prep lists, recipes with batch scaling, menus with allergens and pairings, the bulletin board and 86 list, training modules, the employee handbook, the schedule and timestamped shift notes. We build the sections your restaurant actually uses.

Does Crewli replace my POS?

No. Your POS rings up the checks. Crewli runs everything around the checks: the routines, the recipes, the training, the accountability and the numbers you use to manage the business. It sits next to the tools you already have instead of asking you to rip them out.

Does it work for more than one location?

Yes. If you run more than one restaurant, we set Crewli up around how your group operates so every location works from the same standard. We talk through the locations and agree on pricing upfront during the demo.

How much does Crewli cost?

Crewli is $150 a month, plus a one-time setup fee we quote you upfront, to design and build the app around your restaurant. The monthly covers hosting, the database, updates, maintenance and a real person on your team for changes. There are no per-user fees and no add-ons.

How do we get started?

Book a demo. We walk through how your restaurant runs today, then build the app under your brand with your checklists, recipes, menus and training already loaded. Your team starts using it on their next shift, and we handle the upkeep from there.

Put your whole restaurant in one app.
