Your Olathe Tuesday
shouldn't staff like Saturday.
The Kansas floor is $7.25 an hour, with a $2.13 tipped cash wage. Coordinex reads three months of your Olathe shop's hourly Square sales and drafts next week — so a Garmin badge-in morning and a Lake Olathe weekend don't get the same crew standing around the bar.
Coffee shop scheduling for Olathe, KS.
Olathe, KS
Kansas's minimum wage is $7.25/hr for employees not covered by the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, and covered coffee-shop employers generally still use the federal $7.25/hr floor. The U.S. Department of Labor tipped-wage table lists Kansas at a $2.13/hr minimum cash wage with a $5.12 max tip credit when tips make up the difference to the full minimum wage. Kansas state overtime law applies after 46 hours for non-FLSA employers, while the federal FLSA generally requires 1.5x after 40 hours for covered employers. No statewide fair-workweek or predictive-scheduling rule is modeled here.
Olathe demand runs on a suburban rhythm that one average flattens. Garmin campus offices and Olathe Medical Center shifts fill weekday mornings; Downtown Olathe and Kansas City Road carry the commuter and errand traffic; Lake Olathe pulls the weekend. School-year family routines stretch the after-drop-off hours, suburban dinner peaks lift the early evening, and I-35 traveler windows add their own bumps. Coordinex learns which of these your shop's Square history actually shows, instead of staffing every shift off one Kansas average.
What changes Tuesday
It's 6 down by Kansas City Road. By 7 the Garmin badges have come and gone and the bar is three deep. By 9 it's quiet — until a school-year weekday holds the after-drop-off crowd an hour past when you planned, and the morning you staffed for is already gone. Same Tuesday on paper. Not the same shop.
Most apps ask you to type in how busy you'll be. Nobody types it in — you're making rent, not filling out forms. So the schedule is wrong before it ships.
Three months of your Olathe mornings already sit in your Square account. Real numbers. Hour by hour. The thing nobody scrolls through during a Sunday rebuild.
You still run the shop. We're not pretending the app knows your team better than you do.
We didn't read a coffee blog and build an app. One of us grew up inside a family business; the other still flinches at a Sunday-night shift list. The Garmin badge-in wave by 7 and a Lake Olathe Saturday do not share a curve — and one Kansas average buries that until the roster is already taped to the wall. 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.

How Olathe coffee shops run differently
- The Garmin badge sets your morning clock. When the campus is full, the bar runs deep from open until about 8, then drops off a cliff. When it's a company holiday or a remote stretch, that same window goes soft. A roster copied from last week can't tell those two Tuesdays apart. A draft built off your own Square count can.
- Olathe Medical Center never closes, so your floor never fully empties. Shift-change traffic trickles in across the day instead of stacking into one rush — a steadier base than a Garmin-only morning, and the part a flat schedule tends to under-staff. Your numbers already show where that floor sits.
- Lake Olathe owns the weekend, and the weather owns the lake. A warm Saturday pulls walk-ups early; a gray one keeps the morning quiet and the patio empty. That's one barista, not three. Coordinex shows you the warm-weekend shape your shop already lived last summer, not a Saturday average that splits the difference.
- School-year mornings run an hour longer than summer ones. Once drop-off starts down by Kansas City Road, the after-school-run crowd holds past 9 in a way June never does. Then I-35 travelers add their own bumps on top. Staffing every week like it's mid-July is how you cut a closer who turned out to be busy.
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.
