Let player 'self serve' during rests and free up the GM for the story.
Resting can be a huge bottleneck on running a VTT, which easily devolved into hand waving or just stress trying to get round the table and attend all the asks one at a time.
Respite looks to solve as much of the 'work' which players should be able to 'self serve' e.g. detecting and identifying magical items, foraging - but more so, respite also offers configurable concepts like cooking and crafting.
Beyond that Respite allows you to configure what events a rest runs the risk of e.g. a combat encounter and tools for the players to contend against, e.g. posting guards to lower the encounter DC risk
These are all designed to allow the table to self serve and free up the GM's capacity as much as possible so they can attend the story and narration instead of hours of 'book keeping'
