Yolé: running a franchise brand from one system
An ice cream and frozen yogurt brand with many franchise locations needed one place to approve products, menus and new locations, with a clear record of every decision. We built the system around that.
What did BetterAI build for Yolé?
A franchise operations system: a Django and Supabase validation platform where franchisees, headquarters, super-admins and auditors each have their own role and country-specific access. Products and locations are submitted, approved or rejected, and every step is logged. We also designed a staff-training dashboard.
What problem did Yolé have?
Yolé told us they used to manage everything in Excel sheets and an internal system. A brand with many franchise locations needs approvals for products, menus and openings, plus a clear record of who decided what. Spreadsheets make that hard to keep consistent across countries.
What we built
Four parts that work together.
Submit. Review. Approve or reject.
Headquarters validates products and locations. Each decision is approved or rejected with a reason.
Four roles, country by country.
Franchisee, headquarters, super-admin and auditor, with access set per country.
Every step on record.
Approvals, rejections and history stay visible to auditors.
Ask Yolé anything. Learn and earn points.
A learning dashboard designed for franchise staff: guided journey, manuals, quizzes, XP, badges and a leaderboard by global, country or store.
How does an approval move through Yolé?
A franchise submits a product, menu item or location, headquarters reviews it in the validation system, and it is approved or rejected with a reason. Every step is logged for auditors. Staff use the training dashboard separately to learn and earn points.
