if your plan is the mom and pop market. You could offer a free tier and you could monetize it by offering contracted workers for like an extra couple bucks per hour or something. when they don't have enough staff.

I agree. The only issue is that assigning people to shifts is legitimately a tough problem to solve, and I'm worried about high support load without much upside potential from small businesses.

Medium and large-sized businesses known that scheduling is hard and they are willing to pay for a good solution.
