Colette provides an AI‑driven work system for independent restaurant groups, integrating communication, task automation, and data insights into a single platform. Its agents handle inventory counts, prep sheet creation, and side‑work assignments while turning shift notes into actionable follow‑ups, and it aggregates POS, accounting, and scheduling data so managers can view and act on key metrics together.

Problem
Independent restaurant groups often rely on a fragmented set of tools—spreadsheets, separate messaging apps, and manual processes—to manage inventory, prep, side work, and shift communication. This disjointed workflow leads to missed handoffs, delayed follow‑ups, and inefficient use of labor in an environment where staffing costs and operating expenses are rising.
Solution
Colette offers an integrated, chat‑based work platform that combines communication, task automation, and real‑time data integration for restaurant management teams. AI agents embedded in the conversation automatically perform inventory counts, generate prep sheets, assign side‑work tasks, and convert shift notes into actionable follow‑ups for the next shift. By pulling data directly from POS, accounting, and scheduling systems, Colette presents contextual numbers within the chat, enabling managers to discuss performance and make decisions without switching applications. The unified interface replaces multiple disparate tools, streamlining operations and reducing reliance on manual spreadsheets.
Target Audience
Colette is designed for independent restaurant groups and multi‑unit operators that need a unified tool for manager communication, task automation, and data‑driven decision making.
