Replace your paper temperature logs with a digital HACCP app designed around how private chefs actually work — in clients' kitchens, on the move, and without reliable Wi-Fi.
14-day free trial · No credit card required
Fridge, freezer, cooking, reheating, cooling, and delivery temperatures — all logged with automatic pass/warn/fail based on UK FSA guidelines. Colour-coded so you see at a glance if anything needs attention.
Customisable opening and closing checklists, timestamped automatically. No more clipboards left on the worktop. Accessible on any phone, tablet or laptop.
Log allergen information for the dishes you prepare. Keep a food library of your regular dishes with their allergen profiles — essential when working in clients' homes where dietary requirements must be documented.
Private chefs are unique in that they transport food to clients. Veriqo has dedicated transport temperature logs for chilled, hot and frozen food — covering the gap that general HACCP apps miss entirely.
Every record is timestamped, named and stored securely in the cloud. When an Environmental Health Officer asks to see your records, export a full audit trail as a PDF in a single tap.
Installed as a Progressive Web App, Veriqo stores records locally on your device. You can log checks in a kitchen with no Wi-Fi and everything syncs to the cloud automatically when you reconnect.
Add your business name, the fridge and freezer units you use, your staff names, suppliers and the dishes you regularly prepare. Takes about five minutes and you only do it once.
Open Veriqo on your phone, tap the check you need to log, enter the reading, and you're done. Each record is timestamped with your name and saved automatically — to the device first, then to the cloud.
When an Environmental Health Officer visits or requests your records, open the dashboard, select the date range, and export a complete PDF audit trail in one tap. Professional, complete, and instantly ready.
Yes. Under UK food safety law, any food business operator — including private chefs working in clients' homes — must have a food safety management system based on HACCP principles. This includes keeping records of temperature checks, allergen management, cleaning and deliveries. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) provides guidance for small food businesses, and private chefs fall within scope. See our full guide: Do private chefs need HACCP in the UK?
Yes. Environmental Health Officers accept digital records. What matters is that your records are complete, timestamped and accessible. Veriqo produces EHO-ready PDF exports in one tap — more complete and more reliable than paper logs, which can be lost, damaged or incomplete.
Veriqo ships with sensible default thresholds you can adjust in Settings. By default: fridges warn above 5°C and fail above 8°C (5°C or below is the FSA's recommended chilled target; 8°C is the legal cold-holding maximum in England, Wales and Northern Ireland); freezers around −18°C; and cooked food uses 75°C as a simple operational check. FSA guidance also recognises equivalent time/temperature combinations — for example 70°C for 2 minutes, 75°C for 30 seconds, or 80°C for 6 seconds — so 75°C is a practical default, not the only lawful option. Our UK food temperature guide sets out the cooking, chilling, hot-holding and transport figures with their legal or FSA context, and links the FSA's Safer Food, Better Business guidance.
Yes. Veriqo is a Progressive Web App that stores records locally on your device first, then syncs to the cloud when you have a connection. You can log checks in a client's kitchen with no Wi-Fi and know your records are safe.
Most HACCP apps are built for restaurants with fixed kitchens, static fridge setups, and full-time teams. Veriqo is built specifically for private chefs — it has transport temperature logs, a private chef job mode, mobile kitchen credentials, and it integrates with the Menus and Costing modules so your food safety records are connected to your actual jobs.
