Training & Onboarding
Your best trainer can't be everywhere.
Shifty turns your onboarding process into role-based training paths, shadow-shift checklists, and quick knowledge checks, built for the floor, not a classroom.
Training Paths
Too busy to build it yourself?
Hand us your menus, training manuals, and operation guides. We'll build your entire system so your team can just log in and go.
When training lives in one person's head, every new hire gets a different version.
Your best people train their way and not your way
New hires hit the floor before they're ready
Managers spend half their time babysitting the process
Standards drift with each new hire or new location opening.
Shifty doesn't replace your trainers. It makes your system trainable.
You've built good habits and a real culture. The problem isn't your trainers, it's that there's no consistent way to deliver what they know. Shifty captures your process, makes it mobile, and ensures it's repeatable so every new hire gets the same strong start.

You'll Be In Good Company
1,000+ locations trust Shifty to run a more consistent shift.
Here's what operators say after putting it on their floors.
"I set up the training for the kids who are going to onboard our new employee. I sat with them for not even 10 minutes and explained everything, and they feel so relieved that there's a real plan and structure for them to follow."
"Papers get lost here and there, but with Shifty you don't need to worry about that. You go to the app and educate yourself right there. That's how we use Shifty for new hires, and our staff who've been with us a long time rely on Shifty daily."
"It's so much easier teaching this than papers and binders. Our team is very digital — I love being able to give people tools both ways so they can understand it. And I love the flashcard piece, the quiz after every shift, scanning the menu and building cards so everything is readily at their fingertips."
