Who it is for
Multi-unit restaurant and convenience store brands

What it does
Task management
Checklists, projects and rollouts built once and assigned by role, shift or site, with alerts when tasks are due.
AI photo verification

Runs line checks, opening checklists, audits and food safety tasks, with reports for health departments or other outside parties.
Temperature monitoring
Automatic temperature logging with Bluetooth probes, instant out-of-range alerts and follow-up tasks; the vendor says it saves 60+ minutes per store daily.
Food prep labeling
Food labelling as part of food safety tasks.
In-app reporting and dashboards
Above-store teams see which tasks were done on time and where work was completed incorrectly.
Crunchtime Insights

Data Streaming
Gives access to raw operational data.
