Cafes & bakeries / morning rush
"The usual" — but structured.
Fire It gives regulars a name they can call in, morning rush a pickup window that reflects real prep, and your team a phone that doesn't ring during service.
Availability · today
Pickup windows that tell the truth.
The agent only offers pickup windows your line can hit. When a batch of croissants is gone, the availability board flips in the dashboard and the agent stops offering them mid-sentence.

Good fit if
Where Fire It actually helps
- Your morning rush overwhelms your ability to answer the phone.
- Regulars call in for the same order and you want it captured structured.
- You publish daily availability that changes shift-to-shift.
- You want pre-orders on a controlled window, not chaos.
Honest limits
