BottleneckIQ - Service Flow Bottleneck Analysis Tool
BottleneckIQ — Find the Slowest Points in Your Service Flow (and Fix Them Fast)
Every restaurant has bottlenecks.
Most operators feel the pain — long ticket times, slow seating, delayed turns — but can’t see exactly where the slowdown starts or how much money it’s costing.
BottleneckIQ brings clarity to hidden problems.
This tool identifies your slowest stages, and calculates the real revenue impact of removing each bottleneck. If you want faster pacing, smoother turns, and more predictable shift performance, this is the tool that shows you where to start.
⭐ Why BottleneckIQ Exists
Your restaurant’s profit isn’t limited by:
- Number of seats
- Size of your kitchen
- Staff experience
- Menu size
It’s limited by your slowest operational stage.
Maybe it’s:
- Host stand drag
- Ticket congestion
- Expo delays
- Bar bottlenecks
- Food running gaps
- Server pacing
- Table clearing
- Kitchen pickup times
Fixing the wrong issue wastes time and payroll.
Fixing the right bottleneck transforms your entire shift.
BottleneckIQ shows you the difference.
