FOUNDING YEAR ACCESS: Completed digital resources at $0 through October 1, 2027.
A personal invitation from Thomas Butler · Gravity Founding Tester Program

Help me test Gravity before I call it finished.

You do not need to be a restaurant owner, a programmer, or a formal beta tester. If you use one program, notice one confusing page, find one broken thing, suggest one idea, or tell me about something you have always wished existed to make work easier, that helps.

Every interaction is appreciated. If you materially help improve a Gravity Windows beta, you receive the final version of that program at no charge after the Founding Year ends. The 10 people whose testing contributes the most receive lifetime access to Gravity's standard digital library at no charge. Rewards are based on useful contribution—not praise, message count, or simply signing up.

I want to help

You are in the Testing Room. Send one sentence or stay and test as long as you want. There are no hoops.

Help us improve Gravity through real restaurant experience

Gravity is built through testing, customer experience, correction, and retesting—not by claiming every release is perfect. If a step is confusing, a calculation seems wrong, or you know a simpler way, we want to hear it. Critical issues must be fixed before broader release; noncritical improvements can continue during a clearly identified beta.

Protect private information: Use practice employees, fictional wages, and sample inventory when testing. Do not send actual payroll, employee records, private restaurant financials, customer information, passwords, or screenshots containing sensitive information.

Try Shift Lab

  1. Build a sample seven-day schedule with hourly and salaried roles.
  2. Compare the labor estimate with your own calculation; verify the employer burden is optional, not assumed.
  3. Save, reopen, revise a week, and check privacy of manager-only pay information.

Try Inventory Center

  1. Create sample items and receive a practice delivery.
  2. Record waste, spoilage, or a spill and check the cost estimate.
  3. Change a cost, review historical movements, and tell us whether the explanation is accurate and understandable.

Open Inventory Center

Tell us: What did you try? What did you expect? What happened? Did anything confuse you or make your work harder? Use the private message form below. A five-minute review is valuable, and critical feedback is welcome.

If the Testing Room itself does not work, contact Gravity. We cannot promise every suggestion will become a feature, but feedback will be evaluated against Gravity's purpose, safety, simplicity, and evidence standards.

Need help while you test? Ask Thomas. I can walk you through a problem in the private messenger, schedule a Messenger chat, or schedule a phone call as time allows. I also work a regular job, so response times may vary as more people join. Leave what you can and I will help personally when I can.

Schedule a chat

If messaging is not enough, suggest a time. We can chat here in Messenger or schedule a phone call. I will confirm or suggest another time in your private thread.

Collaborate if it gets that far

Most testing should stay one-on-one. But if an idea, shared workflow, or problem would benefit from several people, you can create a small collaboration group or join one with a code.
