Labor law

California requires daily overtime for many nonexempt workers after 8 hours in a workday and double time after 12 hours, plus seventh-day premium pay. Meal periods generally apply after more than 5 hours, paid rest periods are based on 10 minutes per 4 hours or major fraction, and tips cannot be used as a credit against minimum wage. The statewide minimum wage is $16.90/hr effective January 1, 2026; local floors may be higher. Fast-food restaurant employers covered by the state fast-food rule have a $20.00/hr floor. Current local floor used here is $16.90/hr; next scheduled/reviewed change: state annual reset.

Seasonality

Morro Bay coffee demand layers commute, weekend, and event-window patterns. The same staffing for all three will overstaff one of them.

What changes Tuesday

It's 6:30 a.m. The Morro Rock crowd is already in line. By 9, the morning is over.

Every scheduler we've ever seen asks the manager to type in the busy hours by hand. The manager has thirteen other things to do. So the schedule is a guess wearing software.

Three months of your Morro Bay 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.

We came up inside the kind of shop you're trying to run — Sunday rebuilds, group-text triage, a pen and a guess. Coordinex is what we wished existed back then. An Embarcadero weekday and a Main Street Saturday don't staff the same shift, and one citywide average can't tell them apart. 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.

03

Every Sunday, your demand curve sharpens

It learns which harbor mornings matter, which foggy days thin out, and which visitor weekends need more coverage.

For the people who actually pour the coffee.

How Morro Bay coffee shops run differently

  • Harbor traffic starts early. Fishing, boating, and waterfront work can create useful demand before day trippers arrive.
  • The Embarcadero compresses weekends. Visitor foot traffic can stack into brunch and midafternoon windows.
  • A weekday morning and a weekend pull don't share a curve. Coordinex draws each one separately so neither overstaffs the other.
  • Mara called out for Tuesday at 9 p.m. Sunday. Jess saw it before you did, picked it up in the app, and the dry-erase board never had to come down.

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.
