Someone calls out at 4 pm.
Koo asks your own team first, at normal pay. If nobody says yes, former staff are offered the shift with a bonus. Then it is your call. No phone tree, no group chat.
Sick leave is excused and never counted against anyone.
Short-staffed on a busy night.Overstaffed on a slow one.
Koo Skill covers call-outs by asking your own team first, then former staff, and turns your sales forecast into a suggested crew for each shift. For small restaurants, shops and service crews.
Free for up to 5 people per location. In beta. The demo uses made-up data.
Everyday problems, fixed.
You do not know who is showing up tomorrow.
Everyone confirms the evening before with one tap. Anyone who stays silent is flagged to you with backups ranked, while there is still time.
Not answering is never counted as a no-show.
Labor cost does not match the night.
Restaurants and shops
Your sales forecast becomes a suggested crew and what it costs. You press the button. Nobody already scheduled is cut.
Tuesday dinner, about $1,800 forecast: one fewer server saves $120.
Your techs sit idle, or drive too long.
Service crews
See idle time and driving apart, and what each job really cost, drive time included.
A 2-hour job plus a 40-minute drive at $30 an hour costs $80 in labor, not $60.
Your staff want to trade shifts.
They swap directly in the app — hand a shift to a teammate or pick up an open one. Koo handles the back-and-forth and pings you only for a final, one-tap approval.
The new person still has to qualify at the moment you approve. Nothing slips through.
A last-minute hole in the schedule.
Blast the open shift to every qualified, off-duty teammate at once. The first to tap “I’ll take it” is on the schedule automatically — no phone tree, no waiting on replies.
First to accept wins; everyone else is told it’s taken.
You scheduled someone who can’t work then.
Each person keeps their own availability in their profile. When you build the schedule, Koo won’t let you place someone during the hours they’ve marked off.
Sick leave and time off are blocked the same way, and never held against anyone.
Get ahead of weather, traffic and events.
Weather
Bad weather stretches drive times. Koo warns you before the shift, so a storm doesn’t catch you short-staffed.
Traffic
Traffic doesn’t care about your schedule. Koo ranks cover by who can really arrive in time, with a rush-hour allowance, so you don’t send someone who’ll be late.
Events
A big event can swamp a shift. Tell Koo what’s coming, or let the optional AI read your notes, and it plans ahead — it never finds events for you, and nothing changes until you accept.
Peace of mind, starting today.
Free for up to 5 people per location, with no card and no time limit. Proposed after that: $19 per location per month for 20 people. Pricing
