FoodSafety HQ replaces paper food-safety logbooks with digital checks and council-ready records for Australian hospitality businesses. Its tools cover temperature monitoring, cleaning records with photo proof, delivery checks, allergen management, corrective actions, training, supplier and recall registers, pest logs, SDS registers, waste tracking, and audit reports. The platform aligns with the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, including Standard 3.2.2A and PEAL allergen labelling under Standard 1.2.3; PEAL tools cover all 14 FSANZ allergens and are included on every plan. Staff can complete checks without a signal, with records syncing when connectivity returns. The software requires no probes, sensors, gateways, or other hardware. Operators can manage sites from one dashboard, compare compliance, and assign role-based access; admins can customize checklist items by venue and check type. Records are encrypted in transit and at rest, with role-based access and automatic backups. It runs on Android, iOS, and web. Plans bill monthly, include a 14-day free trial, and have no lock-in contract. Starter costs 29.00 AUD per month for one venue and up to 10 users.
