● Coverage

Dropped shifts fill themselves.
Almost.

When an employee drops a shift on a published schedule, hardt. instantly notifies every eligible employee in that department who's available and not.

  • Instant in-app, email, or text notification to eligible staff
  • Eligibility filtered by department, position, and availability
  • Manager approval required or auto-approve — your choice per department
  • Full audit trail of who dropped, who claimed, and when

How It Works
From blank grid to published
schedule in under 15 minutes.
01

Configure your team

Add employees, their roles, availability, and departments. hardt. uses this to filter and flag conflicts when you build the schedule.

02

Build or copy

Start fresh with the drag-and-drop builder or copy last week's schedule as a baseline. Overtime and conflicts show before you publish.

03

Publish and step back

Hit publish. Everyone gets notified. If a shift drops, the coverage system handles outreach. You just approve.

Common Questions
Restaurant scheduling software FAQ
Can employees request time off and swap shifts directly?
Yes. Employees submit time-off requests through my.hardt.app or the kiosk.
How does hardt. handle split shifts and double shifts?
Both are supported. You can assign multiple shifts to the same employee on the same day.
Can I schedule across multiple locations from one account?
Yes. Multi-unit operators manage all locations from a single dashboard.
What happens if I edit a published schedule?
Only the employees whose shifts changed get notified — not the entire team.
Does hardt. track labor cost against the schedule?
Yes. The ops dashboard shows labor cost as a percentage of revenue, updated in real time as people clock in and out throughout the day.
