The problem
In hospitality, the weekly rota usually lives in spreadsheets and WhatsApp messages. The manager doesn't see the cost until the week closes, and areas end up short-staffed without warning.
- Shifts assigned by hand, hour by hour
- No view of total hours or estimated cost
- Cover per area (kitchen, dining room, bar) out of control
- Contract hours not met (too many or too few)
- Slow, error-prone communication of the rota
The solution
A shift SaaS platform with automatic generation, rules per employee and alerts before the week is published.
Cost and hours
KPIs for total hours, estimated cost and assigned shifts before the week closes.
Smart alerts
Cover below the minimum, absent managers, hours above or below the contract.
Sends the rota to the team without leaving the dashboard.
Stack and approach
- Multi-area web app (kitchen, dining room, bar, stations)
- Rules per employee: availability, split shifts, rest breaks, contract type
- Development accelerated with AI, reviewed before handover
- Open source — the product evolves without being tied to someone else's closed SaaS
Sector: hospitality, restaurants, venues with shifts per area.
Status: in production at turneo.es.
Do you manage shifts by hand?
If the rota eats up hours every week, Turneo may fit, or we can adapt a dashboard to how you operate.
