How it works

Three steps. That's it.

1

Stick the QR

We print laminated, food-safe QR stickers for every fridge, freezer, dishwasher and prep station. You stick them on. Done in 10 minutes.

2

Staff scan & log

Any phone camera. Tap a temperature or run the cleaning checklist. Timestamped automatically — no paper, no late-night "filling in" the logbook.

3

You get alerts

Out-of-range reading? Missed check? Low on stock? The manager's dashboard shows it instantly — and a print-ready report is one click away for inspections.

Everything in FreshCheck

Back of house + front of mind.

🌡️ Temperature logs

Fridge ≤ 4°C, freezer ≤ −18°C, hot hold ≥ 60°C, dish sanitize ≥ 71°C — Alberta Food Retail & Food Services Code ranges built in. Out-of-range readings alert the manager instantly.

✅ No more paper logbooks

Timestamped, un-fakeable entries. Missed-check alerts if a station hasn't been logged in hours. Records auto-retained for a full year, ready for AHS.

📦 Inventory tracking

Every item, category, unit, supplier and SKU. Receive, use or adjust stock with notes — the ledger updates itself.

🚨 Low-stock alerts

Set a reorder level per item. The moment stock dips below it, the manager gets an alert — before the Saturday rush runs out of brioche buns.

🧾 Orders & restock

One click builds a draft order from everything that's low. Mark it sent, then receive it — stock adds itself and the alert clears.

🛡️ Inspector mode

Scan any sticker — full compliance history, one-tap printable report with signature lines. Walk into an inspection calm instead of scared.

🏷️ Printed sticker kits

Laminated, food-safe QR stickers printed and shipped. Includes a binder-ready Food Safety Plan cover sheet. Reprints whenever you rebrand.

👥 Role-based dashboards

Owner sees everything incl. staff management. Managers run the floor. Staff get a clean read-only view. Inspectors get their own public page.

🏪 Multi-location

One account, many locations. Chain pricing for 2+ restaurants with per-site rollups.

Built for Alberta inspections

AHS inspects restaurants every 4–6 months, unannounced — and results are public. FreshCheck keeps the records inspectors ask for, timestamped and impossible to backdate.

What owners say

"Inspectors used to make me sweat over the logbook. Now I scan the sticker, show the history, and we're done in two minutes."

— Owner, family restaurant, Edmonton

"The low-stock alert caught the coffee beans at 2 a.m. before a busy Saturday. That alert paid for the year by itself."

— Manager, café, St. Albert

Frequently asked

Do staff need to install an app?

No. Every phone camera scans QR codes natively. Staff open the camera, point, tap — that's the whole flow.

Is this actually what AHS inspectors want to see?

Alberta's Food Retail & Food Services Code requires safe holding temperatures and records. FreshCheck timestamps every check, retains 365 days, and gives inspectors a clean public readout — the strongest possible record of diligence.

What happens if a fridge dies at night?

If a reading comes in out of range, the manager sees a high-severity alert immediately. Missed checks also alert — a station that silently goes unchecked is flagged within hours, not weeks.

Can I use my own printer for the stickers?

Yes — the Sticker Sheet page generates print-ready QR labels for any station. Or take the $299 Setup Kit and we print, laminate and (optionally) install them for you.

How is this different from a spreadsheet or paper log?

Paper gets skipped, wet and backdated. FreshCheck entries are timestamped server-side, alerts fire automatically, and the inspector report generates itself. Nobody has to "remember" to keep records.
