    The Hidden Cost of Manual Onboarding

    Manual onboarding feels free because there's no software cost. But the real cost is enormous: manager time, inconsistent training quality, longer time-to-productivity, and higher early turnover.

    For a restaurant hiring 5+ people per month, these costs add up to thousands in lost productivity.
