Ferry pulls in at 10:40.
The schedule didn't see it.
$16.90 is the California floor. We pull 13 weeks of your Square data and draft next week so a Marinship weekday doesn't staff like a Bridgeway tourist Saturday.
Coffee shop scheduling for Sausalito, CA.
Sausalito, CA
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.
Sausalito 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 Bridgeway crowd is already in line. By 9, the morning is over.
Most scheduling apps still expect you to guess next week's busy hours and type them into a form. You won't, because nobody does. The dry-erase board wins again.
Three months of your Sausalito 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.
One of us grew up inside a small family business that wrote next week's schedule on Sunday with a pen and a guess. Coordinex is the version we wished existed back then, ported to coffee. Pretend Sausalito Ferry Landing on a Tuesday is Marinship 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.

It learns which ferry windows matter, which visitor weekends stack, and which weekday work patterns stay reliable.
For Sausalito teams who keep the coffee moving.
How Sausalito coffee shops run differently
- Ferries create pulses. A ferry arrival can produce a short rush that needs different coverage than steady foot traffic.
- Bridgeway weekends stack demand. Visitors, cyclists, and waterfront traffic can compress service windows.
- A weekday morning and a weekend pull don't share a curve. Coordinex draws each one separately so neither overstaffs the other.
- Mara's kid is sick and Tuesday's open. She posts it, Jess takes it, and the only message on your phone is the one that says it's already done.
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.
