Built for Renton coffee shops

Sunday at 10pm, rebuilding next week.
We started Friday morning.

Washington floor is $17.13. We pull 13 weeks of your Square data and draft next week — a Large-employer shift-change Saturday shouldn't staff like a regular Tuesday morning.

Labor law

Washington's 2026 state minimum wage is $17.13/hr and Washington does not allow a tip credit, so tipped baristas must receive the full applicable minimum wage before tips. FLSA weekly overtime applies at 1.5x after 40 hours in a workweek. Seattle and certain airport/local jurisdictions can set higher local floors, so Renton operators should keep location-specific wage checks visible before publishing schedules.

Seasonality

Renton 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 The Landing crowd is already in line. By 9, the morning is over.

Here's the part every scheduling app fakes: it asks you to predict the rush, hour by hour, before publish. You skip it every time. Then Tuesday humbles the roster.

Three months of your Renton 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. The Landing retail traffic compress the morning by an hour and Coulon Park weekend errands stretch the afternoon by two — the same roster for both is the Sunday-rebuild trap. 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

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.

How Renton coffee shops run differently

  • The Landing changes one part of the curve. Demand should not be averaged into every Renton shift. Coordinex learns whether that signal actually appears in your Square history.
  • Coulon Park adds another staffing layer. Can pull a different daypart than The Landing. The schedule should reflect where your shop actually sits.
  • 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.
