Food safety app for restaurants
Fridge temps, cleaning, allergens and staff training — recorded as your team works, in one place you can hand to an inspector.
Food safety app for pubs
Food-led or a few bar snacks, the records are the same. Log temps, cleaning and allergens on a phone behind the bar.
Food safety app for cafés
Small team, early starts, no office. Record your fridge temps, cleaning and allergens in the time it takes to make a flat white.
Food safety app for takeaways
Delivery platforms show your hygiene rating next to your name. Keep the records that sit behind it, without the folder.
Food safety app for hotels
Breakfast service, a restaurant, room service and functions — several kitchens' worth of records, in one place.
Tool
Free tools you can use right now — no sign-up to run them.
