Perfect Host

A floor plan and host tool for restaurants: who's seated, who needs attention, which food is due and which tables want the bill, all on one screen.

Perfect Host floor plan with numbered tables, live status colours and a status legend

Why I made it

Hosting a busy restaurant is mostly about not missing small signals: a table that's been waiting too long, food that's due, someone who wants the bill. On a packed night those live in your head and on scraps of paper.

Perfect Host puts them on a floor plan you can read at a glance, built from how service actually runs rather than how software usually imagines it.

  • Table states

    Seated, drinks due, food due, bill requested, reserved and blocked, colour-coded on the plan.

  • Guest notes

    Allergies, occasions and requests attached to the table.

  • Timing

    How long each table has been at each stage.

  • Mobile first

    Designed for a phone in a host's hand during service.
