After one approval to connect an account with Claude or ChatGPT, the assistant reads the uploaded spreadsheet, creates the design and data table for 60 names in all quantities, lays out plates with variables, arranges the run across production beds with fit and font checks, and exports the same production PDF used today. It also supports tasks like checking low inventory, reviewing last month’s activity, using saved templates, and cloning last year’s banquet orders with new names. Access is limited by live Etch Express permissions, with admins controlling who can use it store-by-store, and early access rollout is underway.
