Staff Scheduling →

Nightclubs don't have one kind of employee. They have bartenders, servers, security, hosts, barbacks, cashiers, coat check, and more — all with different rules, rates, and availability. One scheduling engine handles all of them.

Drag-and-drop shift builder
Build schedules across 12+ role types in minutes. Bartenders, servers, security, hosts, barbacks, cashiers, coat check, and every other position in the building — all on one visual grid.
Swap request workflow
Staff submit swap requests directly in the app. Managers approve or deny with one tap. No more group chat negotiations at 4 PM on a Saturday.
GPS-verified clock-in/out
Geofenced time tracking confirms staff are physically at the venue when they punch in. Eliminates buddy punching and disputed hours.
Overtime tracking and alerts
Real-time monitoring flags employees approaching overtime thresholds before it happens — not after payroll runs. Managers get proactive notifications.
Labor cost projection per night
See projected labor cost the moment a schedule is built. Compare against expected revenue to keep margins where they need to be before the doors open.
Template schedules
Save and reuse schedule templates for recurring nights. Friday has its own staffing profile. So does your monthly industry night. Build once, deploy repeatedly.
Availability management
Staff set their own availability windows. The scheduler respects those constraints automatically, reducing back-and-forth and no-shows.
Break compliance tracking
Automated tracking ensures meal and rest breaks comply with local labor regulations. Documented, timestamped, and audit-ready.

VIP Host Management →

VIP hosts drive revenue. phosphorOS gives them real-time visibility into their numbers and gives management the data to reward top performers and identify who needs support.

Real-time performance dashboard
Reservations booked, revenue generated, commissions earned — updated live. Hosts see their numbers the second a bottle hits a table. Management sees the full picture.
Personal client book CRM
Every host maintains a digital client book with guest preferences, visit history, spend patterns, and personal notes. The relationship data that drives repeat business.
Configurable leaderboards
Weekly, monthly, and quarterly leaderboards ranked by revenue, reservations, or custom KPIs. Visible to hosts, configurable by management. Competition drives results.
Incentive program management
Define milestone bonuses, tiered commission escalators, and special incentive programs. The system tracks progress automatically and notifies hosts when they hit targets.
Client handoff workflow
When a host leaves, their client book doesn't walk out the door. Structured handoff workflows reassign relationships with full history intact.
Branded client invitations
Hosts send branded SMS and email invitations directly from the platform. Professional, on-brand outreach tied to the reservation system — not a personal text thread.
Guest arrival notifications
Push notifications alert hosts the moment their guest checks in at the door. No more scanning the crowd. Walk over, greet, deliver the experience.

Talent Scheduling →

Talent is the draw. Managing talent is the headache. phosphorOS centralizes the entire booking lifecycle — from discovery to settlement — in one system that replaces the spreadsheets, email chains, and sticky notes.

Searchable talent database
Centralized profiles with photos, rate cards, media samples, past performance data, and contact details. Find the right act in seconds, not in someone's inbox.
Visual booking calendar
Drag-and-drop talent onto dates. See availability conflicts, double-bookings, and open slots at a glance. Color-coded by talent type and confirmation status.
Auto-generated contracts
Contracts generated from configurable templates with deal terms auto-populated. Send for e-signature directly from the platform. No more Word docs and PDF shuffling.
Rider management
Track technical riders, hospitality riders, and promotional requirements for every booking. Assign fulfillment tasks to staff. Nothing falls through the cracks on show night.
Advance sheet auto-generation
Advance sheets compile automatically from booking details, rider requirements, and venue logistics. Share with talent teams and internal staff in one click.
Go-go dancer rotation engine
Automated rotation schedules across stages and time blocks. Fair distribution, no manual tracking, no favoritism disputes. Set the rotation rules and let the system run.
Costume and wardrobe tracking
Track costume assignments, wardrobe inventory, and themed dress codes per event. Know what's been issued, what's returned, and what needs replacement.
Talent performance analytics
Correlate talent bookings with revenue, attendance, and bar sales. Know which acts actually move the needle and which ones are just noise.

Headliner Collaborations →

Headliner deals involve agencies, complex compensation structures, co-marketing obligations, and multi-date commitments. phosphorOS gives you the tools to manage the business side so you can focus on the show.

Agency CRM
Track agency contacts, past dealings, preferred terms, and open negotiations. Every conversation and commitment documented in one place — not buried in email.
Deal structure builder
Model flat fees, door splits, hybrid structures, and custom arrangements. Compare scenarios side by side before committing. Know your break-even before ink hits paper.
Rider tracking and fulfillment
Checklist-driven rider fulfillment with assignment and status tracking. From green room setup to technical requirements, every item is accounted for and signed off.
Co-marketing coordination
Manage shared marketing obligations, asset approvals, and promotional timelines. Upload creative, track approvals, and coordinate launches across venue and artist teams.
Settlement engine
Transparent post-event accounting with itemized revenue, expenses, and splits. Generate settlement statements both sides can trust. No more Monday morning arguments.
Residency management
Track multi-date commitments, escalating guarantees, performance bonuses, and contract milestones across an entire residency arc. One view for the full relationship.
ROI analysis per headliner
Full cost-to-revenue analysis for every headliner booking. Factor in talent fees, marketing spend, incremental bar revenue, and ticket sales to see the real return.

1099 Talent Payments →

Nightclubs rely heavily on independent contractors — DJs, performers, promoters, and more. phosphorOS handles onboarding, payments, tax document generation, and compliance so you stay clean with the IRS and keep talent paid on time.

Contractor onboarding
Digital W-9 capture and verification during onboarding. Contractors complete their paperwork before the first gig, not six months later during a tax scramble.
Flexible payment methods
Pay contractors via check, ACH, or wire transfer based on their preference. Multiple payment methods configured per contractor, processed on schedule.
Automated 1099-NEC generation
The system aggregates payments by contractor and generates 1099-NEC forms automatically at year-end. E-file directly or export for your accountant. No spreadsheet reconciliation.
Payment scheduling
Align payment timelines with booking confirmations and performance dates. Automated payment queues ensure contractors get paid when they expect to be paid.
Tax document portal
Contractors access their own portal to download payment history, 1099 forms, and tax documents. Self-service means fewer calls to your accounting team in January.
Compliance tracking and audit trail
Every payment, document, and classification decision is logged with timestamps. Full audit trail for tax compliance, labor audits, and internal accountability.
