You knew Tuesday wouldn't be quiet.
Square saw it three months ago.
Florida floor is $14 and $10.98 tipped. We pull 13 weeks of your Square data and draft next week — a Pier-traffic snowbird Saturday and a May-shoulder Tuesday don't staff the same shift.
Coffee shop scheduling for St. Petersburg, FL.
St. Petersburg, FL
Florida's state minimum wage is $14.00/hr (2026) with a tipped cash wage of $10.98/hr (Florida allows a $3.02 tip credit). The floor adjusts annually per the 2020 voter amendment, scheduled to reach $15.00/hr by September 2026. Federal FLSA overtime applies at 1.5x after 40 hours in a workweek; Florida does not impose a daily-overtime trigger.
St. Petersburg coffee staffing runs on a snowbird-driven shift curve — November through April is peak rush demand, May through October is thinner. Central Avenue weekend pulls don't match a Pier-traffic Tuesday morning rush. Rays home-game weeknights at the Trop lift the late-afternoon roster. A hurricane-prep Friday in late summer compresses the afternoon shift.
What changes Tuesday
It's 6:30 a.m. The Central Avenue 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 St. Petersburg 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. A Pier weekend traffic morning rewrites the rush hour, and an Edge District service windows weekend rewrites the rush again — the same staffing for both will miss one. 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 St. Petersburg coffee shops run differently
- Central Avenue changes one part of the curve. Demand should not be averaged into every St. Petersburg shift. Coordinex learns whether that signal actually appears in your Square history.
- Grand Central adds another staffing layer. Can pull a different daypart than Central Avenue. The schedule should reflect where your shop actually sits.
- During Pier weekend traffic, the morning curve runs hotter and longer than a regular weekday. A flat schedule will miss it.
- No more Sunday-night triage of who's covering Wednesday. Mara hands the shift back; Jess picks it up; if she's on your trusted list, the swap clears itself.
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.
