Ask Yes Chef on an iPhone, seven things in twenty seconds, each typed and sent. “Who’s on tonight?” — eight people, listed with their hours. “Put Sam on front of house Tuesday, 5 to 11” — a New shift card; Add shift is pressed and it says Added. “Where are we short this week?” — a bar for each day. “Which checks are left today?” — six of eight done, the list with times. “How were sales last week?” — £26,514, over target every day, with a chart. “Approve Zoe’s holiday” — the request; Approve is pressed and it says Approved. “Tonight’s briefing: 86 the sea bass, push the lamb, table of 12 at 8” — set up, then Saved. Sample data.

How to: Ask it to do something

Ask Yes Chef on an iPhone. “Put Sam Clarke on front of house next Tuesday, 5pm to 11pm” is sent. It reads the rota, then shows a New shift card for Sam Clarke, Tuesday 20 October, 17:00 to 23:00, front of house, with an Add shift button. The button is pressed and the card says Added.
