You knew Tuesday wouldn't be quiet.
Square saw it three months ago.
Alaska floor is $13.00. We pull 13 weeks of your Square data and draft next week — an U.S. Coast Guard shift changes Saturday shouldn't staff like a regular Tuesday morning.
Coffee shop scheduling for Kodiak, AK.
Kodiak, AK
Alaska's minimum wage is $13.00/hr through June 30, 2026, with statutory increases to $14.00/hr on 2026-07-01 and $15.00/hr on 2027-07-01. Alaska does not allow tips or gratuities as a credit toward the state minimum wage, so tipped baristas must receive the full $13.00/hr before tips. Alaska overtime generally applies at 1.5x after 8 hours in a day or 40 hours in a workweek; federal FLSA rules and federal contractor wage rules may also apply for military, airport, and government-contract contexts.
Kodiak coffee demand splits across morning commute rushes, afternoon walk-in traffic, and weekend brunch pulls. The same staffing for all three will overstaff one of them.
What changes Tuesday
It's 6:30 a.m. The Kodiak Harbor crowd is already in line. By 9, the morning is over.
The other apps want a forecast you don't have time to enter. They ship the schedule with empty fields and call it predictive. The roster is wrong before the kitchen lights are on.
Three months of your Kodiak mornings already sit in your Square account. Real numbers. Hour by hour. The thing nobody flips through during a Sunday rebuild.
You still run the shop. We're not pretending the app knows your team better than you do.
Both of us did time behind a register before we wrote a line of code. The Sunday rebuild is the moment Coordinex was built for. A regular Kodiak Harbor weekday and a fishing fleet windows weekend don't share a curve, and the citywide average is what makes that invisible until publish. We don't claim to run your shop. We just stop you from guessing the busy hours — using the Square history your block already proved.

For the people who actually pour the coffee.
How Kodiak coffee shops run differently
- U.S. Coast Guard shift-change changes one part of the curve. Changes should not be averaged into every Kodiak shift. Coordinex learns whether that signal actually appears in your Square history.
- Bear and wilderness tourism adds another staffing layer. Can pull a different daypart than Kodiak Harbor or Downtown Kodiak. The schedule should reflect where your shop actually sits.
- During U.S. Coast Guard shift changes, the morning curve runs hotter and longer than a regular weekday. A flat schedule will miss it.
- Tuesday cover used to be a fourteen-text group thread. Now Mara posts the open shift, Jess taps once, and you approve before you've finished cash-up.
Frequently asked
01What does Coordinex actually read from Square?+
Hourly sales, ticket counts, and item sales for the last three months. Read-only. We don't write back, we don't change menus, we don't touch payments.
02My baristas keep asking for advances. Does Coordinex help?+
Earned wage access is built in. They see what they've already earned mid-pay-period and can pull it without going to a payday lender. We don't take a cut from them. You don't get the awkward Monday text.
03We've got someone clocking in for a friend. Can the app catch it?+
Yes. Geofenced clock-in checks the phone is actually at the shop. Buddy-punch detection flags the patterns where one phone clocks in two people. We don't want you to be the cop. We want the clock to be honest.
04Honest question — does it work on Android?+
Not yet. Coordinex is iPhone-only right now. We'd rather ship one platform that's actually good than two that are half-finished. Android is on the list. We won't put a date on it until it's real.
05How much?+
Free up to 5 teammates — no card. $9.99/mo Starter has a 7-day Apple trial. Full pricing at coordinex.app/pricing. If Coordinex isn't useful in week one, delete it.
06What happens to my data if I cancel?+
You own it on the way out. Export every schedule, timesheet, and wage record before you delete the app — nothing is held hostage, and we don't lock your history behind a final invoice. Month-to-month, cancel anytime.
Try Coordinex on Tuesday. Connect Square in 4 minutes. Schedule by 9.
