Mays in your AI app

Run your restaurant from ChatGPT, Claude or Grok

Connect Mays as a connector and set up your restaurant or café from the chat, then run the day by asking. A 30-day free trial with no credit card, your first location free for the month, and no sales call or demo.

For restaurants and cafés, one location or thousands. About 5 minutes to sign up, connect and ask your first question. Setting up the whole store takes as long as what you paste in.

Mays in Claude

Works with Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Sonnet 5.5 and Claude Fable 5.1.

Custom connectors work on every Claude plan. The Free plan allows one.

Claude shows a safety note for any link that fills in a prompt. Read the prompt, then press send.

Mays in Grok

Works with Grok 4.7.

Custom connectors need a paid Grok plan. If you don’t see Custom, your plan doesn’t have it yet. On Grok Business and Enterprise, a team admin adds the connector first.

How it works

Four steps, one chat

The exact steps for each app are on its page.

  1. Create your free Mays account

    Your name, your business, your first location. Mays texts a code once. No card.

  2. Connect Mays in your AI app

    Add Mays as a connector with one address, sign in, tick “make changes” and click Allow. Each app’s page has the exact steps.

  3. Tell it about your store

    Paste your staff list, hours, menu or price sheet and vendors. One preview, one yes: locations, positions, team invites, the weekly schedule, checklists, vendors and inventory.

  4. Run the day from chat

    Ask it to write your SOPs into the knowledge base, then ask about your day. Every change shows a preview and waits for your yes.

    A Mays week card in the chat for Midtown: tiles for hours, shifts, overtime and labor % against target, a line counting drafts and edits not published yet, and a grid of people by day with color-coded shifts marked Done, In, Late and No-show, plus an open shifts row and a total row

What you can ask

Ask in your own words

Your AI app picks the right part of Mays. A few things people ask on day one:

  • “Who’s on at Midtown right now, and who’s late?”

    Today’s shifts, who’s clocked in, no-shows and late arrivals.

    get_schedule

  • “Anything waiting for my approval? Approve Sam’s time off.”

    Time off, availability, swaps, pickups and checklist reviews. Approving shows a preview first.

    get_pending_approvalsdecide_request

  • “Suggest next week’s schedule at Riverside and keep labor near 25%.”

    Mays’ own auto-scheduler drafts the week. Add it as draft shifts when it looks right.

    suggest_scheduleapply_suggested_schedule

  • “How did sales and labor look yesterday, by location?”

    Net sales, orders, labor % and sales per labor hour.

    With your POS connected.

    get_sales_and_labor

  • “Any fridges out of range today?”

    Out-of-range equipment now, recent excursions and sensors that stopped reporting.

    With thermometers connected to Mays.

    get_temperature_alerts

  • “What do I need to order for Midtown? Send the Sysco order.”

    An order from your par levels, per vendor. Sending shows the vendor, the lines and the total first.

  • “Add “check the ice machine” to the closing checklist.”

    Change a checklist’s items, schedule or who gets it.

    update_checklist_template

  • “Write our opening SOP for the café and put it in Training.”

    A knowledge-base article, waiting in Pending review until an admin publishes it.

Ask your AI

Let your AI explain it for your business

Your AI app already knows your business from your chats and files, and your documents are on your phone. This prompt asks it to read this page, tell you what to gather, and draft your opening and closing SOPs so they’re ready for Mays. Nothing is sent until you press send.

Ask Claude about Mays

Claude shows a safety note for any link that fills in a prompt. Read the prompt, then press send.

The prompt

Please read https://www.mays.app/ai. It shows how restaurants and cafés set up Mays, an all-in-one operations app, from an AI app like ChatGPT, Claude or Grok. Using what you already know about my business, explain how I would set up Mays with you in about 5 minutes. List what I should gather first: my staff list, opening hours, menu or price sheet, vendors, and any SOPs I already have on my phone or drive. Then offer to draft my opening and closing SOPs now, so they are ready to upload to Mays. End with the link to start the free 30-day trial (no card needed): https://go.mays.app/register?utm_source=ai_hub&utm_medium=ai_prompt&utm_campaign=ai_connectors

Trust and privacy

Exactly your access. Nothing more.

  • It works as you. Your locations and your permissions in Mays, nothing more.
  • First name and last initial. The AI app never sees phone numbers, emails or home addresses.
  • Pay is opt-in. Wages, labor cost and tips are left out unless you tick “Include wages, labor cost and tips” when you connect.
  • Every change is confirmed first. It only reads unless you tick “make changes”, and even then every change shows a preview and waits for your yes.
  • Disconnect any time. Settings → Connected AI apps lists every connection and every question and change it made.
  • Your data, your account. What the AI app reads from Mays goes to the AI app’s provider, under your own account and its terms.

Settings → Connected AI apps in Mays: the Mays server address with a Copy button, your connections with what each may do and a Disconnect button, and your recent activity with each question, the app and the outcome
Settings → Connected AI apps: every connection, and every question and change it made.

Questions

Which plans of ChatGPT, Claude and Grok does it work on?

Works on ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu, through developer mode on the web. Custom connectors work on every Claude plan. The Free plan allows one. Custom connectors need a paid Grok plan. If you don’t see Custom, your plan doesn’t have it yet. On Grok Business and Enterprise, a team admin adds the connector first.

Is it really free?

Yes. Every new account starts with a 30-day free trial of every Basic and Pro module, with no credit card. Your first location is free for that month. Add-ons aren’t part of the trial. When it ends, pick a plan on the pricing page; your data stays.

Do I need to talk to sales or book a demo?

No. Sign up, connect and start. Nobody has to show it to you first. If you’d like a walkthrough, you can book one, but you never need it to start.

Can I use more than one AI app?

Yes. Connect ChatGPT, Claude and Grok at the same time. Each is its own connection with its own Allow, and each one is listed under Settings → Connected AI apps. Your managers can connect their own, with their own access.

Who can connect, and does it use Mays AI credits?

Managers and admins can connect, on every Mays plan. It doesn’t use Mays AI credits: the AI runs on your own plan with the AI app.
