Tempo: Live Wait Times

Founder pricing is open — lock in Tempo Pro while the first 500 spots last. Live wait times for restaurants, bars & cafes. Real check-ins, never a fake number.

Tired of showing up to a packed restaurant with no idea how long the wait is? Tempo gives you real-time wait times and busy hours at restaurants, bars, and cafes across the US — so you always know before you go.

HOW IT WORKS

Tempo combines live, on-the-ground reports from the community with busy-hours data for venues nationwide. When you visit a spot, check in and report the crowd level. Your report helps everyone else plan — and earns you points on the leaderboard. The more people check in, the sharper the live picture gets.

REAL-TIME WAIT TIMES See current wait estimates and how busy a place is right now, updated by real people on the scene.

VENUE INTELLIGENCE Every venue page is packed with useful info: current wait, capacity level, best time to go, hourly busyness charts, parking availability, nearby events that might affect crowds, and community tips.

LIVE ACTIVITIES Track wait times right from your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Start tracking a venue and watch the wait update without opening the app.

CHECK IN & EARN POINTS Report crowd levels in seconds. Earn points for every check-in, build streaks, unlock achievements, and climb the leaderboard.

TRENDING & DROPS See what's hot right now: trending venues, busiest neighborhoods, and the biggest wait-time drops. Find the spot that just cleared out before everyone else does.

SMART ALERTS Set a wait-time threshold on any venue and get notified the moment the wait drops below your target. Never miss the perfect window.

COMMUNITY CHAT Share tips, photos, and real-time updates with other people at the same venue.

PARKING INTEL Community-reported parking at every venue: street, lot, garage, or valet, with cost estimates and difficulty ratings.
