Overview

Sous Chef is your in-app AI assistant. Ask it how something works, where to find a setting, or to help with a task — and it can take simple actions on your behalf, always asking before it changes your data or contacts a customer.
Good to know: Sous Chef is rolling out gradually and may not appear in every account yet. If you don’t see it, you’re not missing a setting — it’s on its way.

​
Opening Sous Chef

Look for the floating circular terracotta chef’s-hat button in the bottom-right corner of your dashboard (The Counter). Click it to open the Sous Chef panel on the right. The panel’s subtitle sets the tone: “Ask anything about your bakery. I can take simple actions for you.” When it’s empty, you’ll see a prompt to get started: “Try: How do I share my order link?” The Counter with the Sous Chef chef's-hat button in the bottom-right corner

Asking a question

  1. Type into the Ask Sous Chef… input.
  2. Click Send.
Sous Chef streams its answer back to you in real time. Ask it anything — how to set up a product, what an order status means, or how to share your order link.

​
Taking actions — with your approval

Sous Chef can do more than answer. It uses tiered confirmation so you’re always in control of anything that matters:
  • Runs instantly — low-stakes actions that don’t change your data, like navigating you to a page or copying your order link.
  • Asks first with a Confirm card — anything that changes your data. Sous Chef shows a Confirm card you must approve before it acts. Examples: drafting a new product, updating your weekly baking hours, creating an order from an inquiry, or emailing your order link to a customer.
  • You send messages yourself — for customer message replies, Sous Chef shows an editable draft. You review it, tweak it if you like, and click Send. It never sends a message to a customer on its own.

Pro tip: Sous Chef never auto-sends messages and never changes your data without a Confirm step. If you change your mind, just don’t approve — nothing happens.
