Tip-out the whole team can trust.

Common questions
What operators ask before they switch.
Can we start without a big implementation?+
Yes. Create the venue, invite the crew, and start with the workflow causing the most friction. Add the rest when the team is ready.
What does the team get out of it?+
A current schedule, fewer group-text handoffs, clear assigned work, live 86s, and a shared tip-out record. That gives staff practical reasons to use the system, not just another app to download.
Does the whole team use it on their phones?+
Yes. Schedules, changes, lists, messages, and the 86 board stay in reach wherever the shift is happening.
Do we pay for every employee?+
No. Every plan includes unlimited staff. Pricing changes with capability and location count, not headcount.
Does RunBackhouse run payroll?+
RunBackhouse prepares the hours, overtime, roles, rates, and tips your payroll provider needs on Growth and above. Your provider still runs payroll, files taxes, and moves money.
