You open before the sign flips.
We've been ready since Sunday.
Idaho floor is $7.25. We pull 13 weeks of your Square data and draft next week — a Riverbend Commerce Park Saturday shouldn't staff like a regular Tuesday morning.
Coffee shop scheduling for Post Falls, ID.
Post Falls, ID
Idaho minimum wage is $7.25/hr and tracks the federal floor. Idaho tipped employees may be paid a $3.35/hr cash wage when tips bring pay to at least $7.25/hr; employers must make up the difference if tips fall short. Idaho Code Section 44-1502 also preempts local minimum-wage ordinances above the state floor. FLSA weekly overtime applies at 1.5x after 40 hours in a workweek; Idaho does not set predictive scheduling rules for coffee shops.
Post Falls 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 Spokane Street 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 Post Falls 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. Pretend Spokane Street on a Tuesday is Post Falls Dam on a Saturday and you'll overstaff one of them, and a flat schedule picks the wrong one every time. 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.

Next week, drafted in 12 minutes
Reads three months of your hourly Square sales and drafts next week from that. You spend 12 minutes editing instead of 90 building from scratch. Idaho wage assumptions stay visible before publish.
Every Sunday, your demand curve sharpens
Last week's actual sales feed back in. A demand model fitted to your shop adjusts. Next week's draft starts from a smaller error than the last.
For Post Falls teams who keep the coffee moving.
How Post Falls coffee shops run differently
- I-90 travel windows change one part of the curve. Should not be averaged into every Post Falls shift. Coordinex learns whether that signal actually appears in your Square history.
- Post Falls Dam adds another staffing layer. Can pull a different daypart than Spokane Street or Post Falls Dam. The schedule should reflect where your shop actually sits.
- During Riverbend Commerce Park shifts, the morning curve runs hotter and longer than a regular weekday. A flat schedule will miss it.
- The group text dies in week one. Mara posts she can't make Tuesday; Jess covers it inside the app; trusted swaps auto-approve while you're closing out Sunday.
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.
