Where your week disappears

The repetitive jobs we hear about most from food & cold chain.

Spoiled stock

Fridges fail overnight and stock is lost before anyone notices.

Paper logs

Temperature checks written on clipboards and easy to miss.

Inspection stress

Hunting for records when the inspector arrives.

What we automate for you

Built around the software you already use, with nothing new for your customers to learn.

Live temperature alerts

Sensors in fridges, freezers and vans send alerts the moment readings go out of range.

Escalation rules

If an alert is not dealt with, it escalates to the next person automatically.

Compliance logs

Readings saved and turned into daily logs ready for audits and inspections.

Delivery checks

Temperatures recorded throughout every delivery route.

Weekly reports

Trends and incidents summarised so you can spot failing equipment early.

Multi-site view

Every site and vehicle on one simple dashboard.

Common questions

Do I need Wi-Fi for the sensors?

Not always. We can use Wi-Fi or mobile-data sensors depending on where your equipment is.

Are the logs accepted for inspections?

The logs include time-stamped readings and actions taken, which is what most food safety checks ask for. We can match your current paperwork.

Is my data kept secure?

Yes. We use secure, GDPR-compliant services and your own accounts. Your data is never sold or shared, and you stay in control of it.

How much does it cost?

Automations start from £495, and every project gets a fixed, written quote after a free audit. Most are built in 2–4 weeks.
