oppiOS / Parallax Projection
Covers, takings, and tickets, before the sitting starts.
It says how sure it is, and what moved the number.

The curve
For every 15-minute slot Parallax produces a baseline from the venue's history and an adjusted projection: revenue, transactions, covers, average ticket. Around the middle sits a band from p10 to p90, so a quiet Tuesday and a football Friday show their uncertainty as well as their number.
Influences
Weather from the Bureau of Meteorology. Local events, assessed for impact on this venue. Traffic and the precinct. Public holidays and school terms. Each influence is attributed to the slot it affects, as a percentage, so the projection is an argument you can read, not a figure you must believe.
Re-running
Parallax materialises the forecast window on a schedule, and again whenever the weather forecast actually changes; a hash check skips the work when it has not. A nowcast re-rolls the current day as it trades. An ensemble learns from how each projection scored, and accuracy is logged against what happened.
Where it lands
The Scenario Band on Today. Tomorrow. The Time Machine. The Planner's forecast tab and labour section. Venue Pulse on the Kiosk. The pantry's demand. When oppiGPT talks about the day ahead, it is reading Parallax.
What it does
Revenue, transactions, covers and average ticket, per slot.
The venue's history, then the world applied to it.
p10, p50 and p90, so uncertainty is on the chart.
Weather, events, traffic and calendar, each as a percentage on its slot.
Scheduled, on weather revisions, and as a nowcast during the day.
Ensemble weights learn from outcomes; accuracy is logged.
The forecast changes; the projection re-runs; the lunch band moves down; the labour heartbeat notices.
The event is assessed and attributed to the slots it touches.
The Planner sets Friday's staffing against Friday's band, not last Friday's takings.
