    • Our team has never been this focused on optimizing labor and hitting our targets. The tool makes it super easy and the visibility is great for leaders. We are just digging into the new Learning Management System and Chat features but have been continually impressed by their rate of development and response to new feature requests. You can tell they care about their customers and about building a superior product.

    • I have seen many scheduling tools across my career in the service industry and Rightwork combines the best of all of them. The AI-scheduler feels like we are giving our managers superpowers and the forecasted labor budgets make it easy to control costs as we grow. This should be a no-brainer for all restaurant chains.

Rightwork excels in managing schedules efficiently, allowing for quick creation, modification, and sharing, which saves us a lot of time and effort. The leadership team is very involved in support and has quickly built every custom feature that I have asked about. Overall, Rightwork has become an indispensable tool for us, and I highly recommend it to any organization seeking a reliable and versatile scheduling solution.

    • Managing labor while growing rapidly can be a challenge. Will and his team at Righwork partnered with our pilot store manager to not only train but also made themselves available for 24-hour support. The communication and support was not just professional but rapid. They immersed themselves into our communication cadence and provided real time support to guide our pilot store through their learning curve. A role model for a true partnership, no layers of sales people or tech support to maneuver through. The platform itself is easy to set-up and navigate, plus the business intelligence enhances managers ability to make sound business decisions to effectively manage labor deployments.

Frequently asked questions

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please contact our sales team

    • Can we do a pilot?

      Yes! We support whatever rollout plan makes sense for your business. We offer month-to-month pricing and a flexible cancellation policy, so you can test the waters without a long-term commitment. Many customers choose to start with a 3 month pilot in select locations, which includes our process of integrating, customizing, and evaluating the solution. This lets you see the impact before deciding on a full rollout.

    • Is Rightwork tailored to my company?

      The labor modelling our team does uses data inputs that are specific to not only each company, but also each store within each company. Also, our data science team works closely with your subject matter experts to refine the models and ensure that the schedules and labor budgets are accurate so your team can use them with confidence.

    • What is auto-scheduling and how does it work?

      Auto-scheduling is the process of running an algorithm to match schedules to forecasted demand as efficiently as possible. Unlike most auto-scheduling softwares, Rightwork uses a bottoms-up approach, where we breakdown the forecast all the way down to the product and channel levels. This ensures that when we map the required work to potential shifts, the results are as accurate as possible.

    • What industries does Rightwork serve?

      Rightwork can help any company in the service industry optimize their labor. Right now, we are working with restaurants, hotels, and retail chains.

    • How does Rightwork help reduce labor costs?

      By creating schedules using demand-based scheduling. Demand-based scheduling helps match labor with forecasted sales to avoid over or understaffing, and can be used to choose the best employee for shifts based on hourly rates, qualifications, preferences, and overtime risk.

    • How much can Rightwork save us on labor?

      That depends on how efficiently you are currently allocating labor. We generally see a our customers drop their labor percentage by 1 to 3 percent. In our most recent case study, we improved the annual profitability of a 16-store ramen chain by over $1 million.
