7shifts, worked by an AI employee

Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your 7shifts account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What 7shifts is

7shifts is a restaurant team management platform for employee scheduling, time clocking, payroll, communication, and operational workflows.

You paste in a key from your own 7shifts account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside 7shifts whenever you like.

How a run works

One message in, the work done in 7shifts.

  1. 01

    You ask

    You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.

  2. 02

    It works out the step

    It decides what the job needs in 7shifts. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.

  3. 03

    It does the work

    Signed in to your own 7shifts account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.

  4. 04

    It reports back

    It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

Other apps in the same corner of the business

It works in 7shifts and the rest of your software in the same job

A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.
