The gut feeling is decisive

No one can become an expert in scheduling (service) for people

While schedulers often view creativity, flexibility, and experience as human advantages, they overlook one crucial aspect. Experience, intuition, and expert knowledge can only be acquired if the rules governing the environment are clear, understandable, and permanent. However, this is precisely not the case in reality. While it's easy to understand the rules of chess and become an expert through practice, it's not easy to schedule mini-jobbers. Because their lives are constantly and unpredictably changing.

SMARTCHILLI works efficiently and quietly

Software like SMARTCHILLI impressively demonstrates that automated systems are superior to human schedulers in many aspects. SMARTCHILLI, with JOB:Dating, provides an interface that not only makes planning easy for mini-jobbers but also makes it enjoyable. This allows SMARTCHILLI to work systematically and objectively – and to record every response (both positive and negative). One of SMARTCHILLI's biggest advantages is its independence from cognitive biases, such as confirmation bias. While people often tend to seek or interpret information that supports their existing beliefs, SMARTCHILLI works objectively and holistically. It analyzes data without emotional prejudices and makes decisions based on facts. In contrast, a human often considers themselves an expert in a complex and unpredictable environment without always being one in reality.

Intuition is either a lie – or self-deception.

Psychologists like Daniel Kahneman have pointed out that intuitive decisions in uncertain situations are often based on luck or false assumptions, rather than on well-founded insights. This means that human intuition is often not the most reliable basis for decision-making. Kahneman put it very harshly in his book "Thinking, Fast and Slow" when he said:

"The claim that one had the right intuition in an unpredictable situation is, at best, self-deception; if predictive cues are missing, intuitive hits are either due to luck or lies."

We explain retrospectively what we didn't know beforehand – and we omit information that contradicts these explanations.

Communication needs follow an exponential rather than a linear function with growth

Another impressive feature of automated systems like SMARTCHILLI is their ability to process vast amounts of data in the shortest possible time. Who knows a dispatcher who can process 37,000 hours per month? While 10 jobs per month with 10 employees involve 200 decision options, 50 jobs with 50 employees already involve 5,000. Since no human can now systematically schedule all employees, they will have to make a selection: the 'nose factor'. Constantly, those who are eager to agree are asked first – and those who rarely agree are neglected. Some work overtime, while others get no jobs at all.

Change in communication direction

SMARTCHILLI performs these tasks efficiently and flawlessly, allowing companies to save valuable resources while improving the quality of their service planning – and also documenting all rejections for regulatory authorities accurately and completely. Simply by changing the communication direction (employees schedule themselves) and rewarding planners (you get the jobs you want if you swipe fast enough).

Automated service planning is not just an option, but a necessity

The combination of objective data analysis, the avoidance of human error, and the ability to process large amounts of information makes systems like SMARTCHILLI an indispensable tool for modern businesses. It is time to recognize the benefits of automation and take service planning to the next level. Test SMARTCHILLI completely free for the first month.
