NIGHTFORM
Case study

ShiftChef: no more short-staffed Saturdays.

A live web platform we built for Austin's Sixth Street corridor that connects bars and restaurants with bartenders, door security and kitchen staff.

ShiftChef

The problem

Every Sixth Street owner knows the text: a bartender can't make it, it's 7pm, and the night is about to get expensive. Finding a reliable fill-in usually means calling around and hoping.

What we built

  • A web-based marketplace at shiftchef.co — no app download required for venues or workers.
  • Roles for bartenders, door security, line and prep cooks, dishwashers and kitchen staff.
  • Live database and secure online payments for job posts, with the first post free.
  • An admin dashboard to manage users, jobs and venues.

Why it matters for Nightform clients

Marketing fills the room; staffing keeps it running. ShiftChef is part of how we make the owner's job easier — not just louder.
