Who it is for

  • Multi-location restaurant groups and franchisees

    Owners and regional managers see what each location has done, and each site follows the same checklists.

  • Convenience stores, hotels and grocery

    Built for multi-site operators across restaurants, hotels, grocery, convenience stores, senior living and theme and trampoline parks.

  • Operators who want equipment maintenance and food safety in one tool

    Covers work orders, preventive maintenance and asset records alongside daily checklists and food safety logs, so a separate maintenance system is not needed.

What it does

  • Digital checklists

    Custom opening, closing, cleaning and daily task lists so staff know what to do, how and by when.

  • Food safety and temperature logs

    Digital temperature and date checks, with support for Bluetooth temperature probes, that produce daily food safety records.

  • Sensor-based temperature collection and alerts

    Can take readings from sensors at set intervals and alert people when a threshold is exceeded.

  • Audits and inspections

    Internal audits and walkthroughs on a phone with points per question, scoring, photos, notes, corrective actions and emailed reports.

  • Preventive maintenance

    Schedules and logs recurring maintenance for equipment, with plans that can differ per location.

  • Work order management

    Logs repair issues, assigns work orders to technicians and tracks status through completion.

  • Equipment and vendor records

    Keeps repair, maintenance and cost history for equipment, plus vendor and warranty details.

  • Multi-location reporting

    Corporate-level and daily reports across locations, viewable from a phone.

  • Task and prep lists

    Restaurant task management and prep lists sit under the daily operations tools.

  • Document and recipe management

    Stores documents and recipes alongside the operating checklists.

  • Workforce task accountability

    Tracks whether assigned work was done, training and SOPs; it does not schedule shifts and says it works alongside schedulers.
