An AI front desk for bakeries and cafés
Custom-order calls come in during the morning rush, when nobody can step away from the counter. Ava keeps a list of the caller's name, number, and request on your desk so you can quote and confirm. Texting them back is coming soon.

What a missed call looks like
A 7 AM line out the door and a birthday-cake call you can't take.
- Ava: Hi — sorry we missed you. This is Ava at the bakery. What's your name, and what can we help with?
- Caller: Maria — a sheet cake for 30.
- Ava: Got it. What day and time would you like it?
- Caller: Saturday at 2
- Ava: Thanks — I've passed this to the team. The owner will text you to confirm the details.

Which helpers fit a bakery
Ava
Keeps a list of callers' custom-order requests on your desk. You add them for now. Texting back missed calls is coming soon.
Marcus
Drafts a slow-afternoon text to regulars who opted in, and four weekly social captions.
Leo
Writes a Google review request for each customer after pickup, when you mark the order done.
What it won't do
- Ava never quotes a price other than the starting price you set, and never confirms an order.
- She does not take payment or check inventory.
- Nothing sends without your rules: quiet hours, STOP opt-outs, and optional approval before anything goes out.
For shops across the Central Valley
TaskStaffed is built for owner-run local businesses like the ones in Fresno, Clovis, Modesto, Stockton, Merced, Visalia, Tulare, Hanford, Turlock, and Bakersfield. Everything runs online, so it works anywhere in the US. Set your time zone and quiet hours once, and reminders and promos only go out during your hours.
Questions from bakeries & cafés
Does Ava take orders?
No — she collects the request (what, how many, when) and you confirm and quote it yourself.
What does a slow-day promo look like?
A short text Marcus writes on the weekdays you pick, sent only to customers who agreed to promos, with STOP to opt out.
Coming soon: texting your customers. Until then, leads, reminders, drafts, and your 5 PM update show up on your desk and by email.
