One day, handled

A Tuesday at a small producer.
Watch it keep itself.

This is what compliance looks like when it stops being a second job. Scroll through the day. Every record ticks itself into place as you pass.

06:12

Doors open. Checks done. Records

Fridge and freezer temps, opening housekeeping, all signed from a phone by whoever opens up. No clipboard, no catch-up pile.

The sugar delivery lands. Suppliers

Goods-in inspection logged at the door. Sugar added to Raw Materials, supplier and batch ID auto applied. The supplier's certificate is already on file, with an expiry reminder set months ago.

Batch 260817-CRA-001 goes out the door. Traceability

Batch coded, allergens tracked against your live matrix, traceable in both directions if anyone ever asks. They rarely do. It's there anyway.

Fridge 3 starts drifting. Alerts

7.8°C on the afternoon check. FoodSafe flags the breach the moment it's logged, and the fix - seal replaced, temperature rechecked - goes straight into the corrective action record. Exactly the trail an auditor asks for.

The email every producer dreads. Inspection

Lights off. Nothing hanging over you. Done

No paperwork following you home. No nagging feeling something got missed. The day is complete, recorded and audit ready.

Tuesday, complete recordHandled
That feeling at 17:04? Handled.

That's a simplified day inside FoodSafe. Enter it once and it's handled - records kept, documents current, traceability logged, audit pack ready. Everything you need, when you need it.

The honest truth

You didn't start a food business to spend your time doing paperwork.

Or to lie awake the night before an inspection. Here's the choice most small producers think they're stuck with.

Paper & spreadsheets

Always behind

Records pile up. Folders go missing. Auditors aren't impressed, and you can never find the one sheet they ask for.

Hours, every week

Expensive and one-off

£500-3,000 for a production HACCP plan. Weeks of waiting. Then you maintain it yourself, and pay again for every change.

Meet Sage

Your HACCP plan,
built through a conversation.

Sage asks about your business in plain English and builds your HACCP plan step by step, on a foundation you can trust. It walks you through the full 12-step Codex methodology and saves every answer as you go, while FoodSafe's validated food safety logic builds your audit-ready plan - customised to your products, your process, your site.

Not a template. Not a chatbot. Not a consultant's PDF that goes stale in a drawer.

How Sage works

A consultant's process, in software.

Safety gates run through every step. Your plan can't move forward until each stage checks out, so nothing slips through and nothing gets made up.

Step 1Sage asks the questionsPlain-English questions about your product and your process, through all 12 HACCP steps. No jargon, no blank page, and when you have a question, Sage answers it.
→
Step 2Validated food safety logic makes the callsEvery hazard comes from a curated library of pre-verified UK and EU hazards. Every risk score comes from fixed scoring logic. Every CCP comes from the standard Codex decision tree. The AI never makes a safety decision, and it never guesses. If something doesn't add up, Sage stops and asks.
→
Step 3You approve every lineThe final safety gate is you. Nothing enters your plan until you confirm it. Disagree with anything and override it, with your reasoning logged for your auditor. It's your plan, start to finish.

Out the other end: a complete, audit-ready HACCP plan. Yours to keep, yours to update in Sage anytime, never out of date.

How it works

From signup to compliant in an afternoon.

Set up your account

Add your business details. Your record sheets and document templates are ready the moment you log in.

Build your system

Sage walks you through your HACCP plan in plain English. Upload documents, set up records, invite your team.

Stay compliant, daily

Log records in two minutes. Get alerts before things slip. Generate a full audit pack in one click.

Know where you stand. Every morning.

Your Compliance Score is one live number built from what matters - checks done on time, breaches, documents in place, nothing overdue. Fix something today, watch it move. Every Monday, a summary lands in your inbox before the week starts.

A guide, not a guarantee: the score shows how well your system is being run - it doesn't promise an inspection result. But "I think we're fine" isn't due diligence. A number you're tracking is.

EC 852/2004 Annex II

Document management

Policies, procedures, certificates and SOPs - organised, version-controlled, accessible from any device. Share with auditors instantly.

SALSA Issue 7

Allergen management

EU 1169/2011 · Natasha's Law

Your early warning system

A supplier certificate about to lapse. A fridge check missed. An allergen silently edited on a recipe. The right person knows the moment it happens - by name, with exactly what changed. And when the auditor asks "how would you have known?" - you'll have an answer.

SALSA Issue 7
On the floor

Built for the production floor, not the back office.

Log records where the work happens. Check documents from the kitchen. Track raw materials as they arrive - on any device, with or without signal.

  • Works offline. Capture records without a signal - common in cold stores - and everything syncs the moment you reconnect. Nothing is lost.
  • Log from any device. Phone, tablet, desktop - the same system, the same data, everywhere.
  • No more double entry. Log it once on the floor. It's instantly in the system, timestamped and stored.
  • Documents anywhere. Policies, procedures and certificates, viewable from anywhere in your facility.
Why FoodSafe exists

Producer first. Founder second.

Paddy, founder of FoodSafe
"I ran a kombucha business, took it through SALSA, and lived all of it."

The late nights with a HACCP template you're not sure you're filling in right. The folder you hope is complete when the inspector's car pulls up. I lived all of it building Pure Booch Kombucha - the Sundays lost to paperwork, the consultant quotes in the thousands, the spreadsheets nobody could maintain. FoodSafe is the tool I needed then: one place where the plan, the records and the proof look after themselves, built by someone who knows what a Tuesday actually looks like in a small production kitchen.

Real food producers. Real compliance.

★★★★★

"What would you do if an EHO inspector called and said they'd be there in two hours?"

That's exactly what happened to Anthony at That Green Life. Two hours' notice. With FoodSafe, he pulled up his records, generated his audit pack, and walked the inspector through a fully digital compliance system.

The result? A 5-star EHO rating.

Questions

Everything you might be wondering.

Do I legally need a HACCP plan for my food business?

Yes. Under UK food hygiene law (Regulation (EC) No 852/2004), every food business must have a food safety management system based on HACCP principles. EHOs ask to see it during inspections, and it directly affects your hygiene rating.

How is Sage different from ChatGPT or other AI tools?

Sage isn't a chatbot, and it isn't a questionnaire that spits out a template. It's a purpose-built food safety expert that uses deterministic logic - hazard identification, risk scoring and CCP decisions are made by validated methodology, not by AI guessing. Sage asks the questions; the science is hard-coded; you approve every line.

Will my auditor accept a HACCP plan built with Sage?

Sage produces a standard plan following the full 12-step Codex Alimentarius methodology - a professionally formatted PDF with hazard analysis tables, CCP control charts and every section auditors expect. It's your plan, approved by you at every step; Sage just helped you build it.

Can FoodSafe help me get SALSA or BRCGS certified?

FoodSafe is designed to meet the documentation requirements of SALSA, BRCGS and ISO 22000 audits. SALSA formally acknowledges digital record keeping, and FoodSafe is built around the documentation requirements of the new Issue 7 standard. Our founder went through SALSA certification himself, so the system reflects real audit experience.

How long does it take to set up?

Most producers are up and running within an afternoon. Your document templates and record sheets are ready to customise immediately. A HACCP plan through Sage typically takes a few hours spread over a few sessions.

How much does a consultant cost compared to FoodSafe?

A consultant typically charges £60-150 per hour, with a production HACCP plan costing £500-3,000 or more - a one-off document. FoodSafe gives you the full system every day: Sage's HACCP builder with an audit-ready PDF you can update anytime, daily records, document management, traceability and one-click audit packs.

How is FoodSafe different from other food safety software?

Most food safety software falls into two camps: template libraries that hand you blank forms and wish you luck, or enterprise platforms built for factories with compliance teams and budgets to match. FoodSafe is neither. It's built for small UK producers, and the difference starts with the plan itself: Sage builds your HACCP plan with you, in plain English, with every safety decision made by validated food safety logic and every line approved by you - not a template you decode alone, not an AI guessing. And the plan doesn't go stale in a drawer: your records, documents, traceability, alerts and one-click audit packs run alongside it in one place, every day, from £39.95/month. One system. Built for makers. Ready before the inspector even calls.

What happens if I'm offline?

FoodSafe works offline. You can capture records without a signal - common in cold stores and production areas - and everything syncs automatically the moment you reconnect. Nothing is lost.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. No lock-in contracts. Monthly plans are billed monthly, annual plans at a 10% discount. The 14-day free trial runs on Professional, so you can try everything, including Sage. No card required.

What is changing in SALSA Issue 7?

SALSA published Issue 7 of the Food & Drink Production Standard in June 2026, and from 1 September 2026 all SALSA audits are conducted against it. FoodSafe's records, documents and Sage's HACCP output are built to support the Issue 7 requirements, so the system you set up today is the one your auditor will assess you against.

Is FoodSafe the same as Safer Food Better Business (SFBB)?

No. SFBB is the FSA's free, simplified pack designed for caterers and retailers. If you produce food for sale through other businesses - shops, delis, wholesalers - or you're working towards SALSA or BRCGS, you need a site-specific HACCP-based food safety management system. That's what FoodSafe provides, records and all.

Is my data secure?

Yes. FoodSafe runs on ISO 27001-certified AWS infrastructure with data hosted in the UK. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with authentication handled through AWS Cognito.

I already have a HACCP plan. Can I bring it across?

Yes - upload your existing plan and documents to the document module, where they're stored, organised and audit-ready. Sage can't yet read an uploaded plan to build from, so if you want your plan rebuilt in FoodSafe, Sage walks you through it fresh - most producers find that's the moment their plan finally matches what they actually do.

What happens when my trial ends?

The 14-day trial runs with no card on file, so nothing is charged automatically. At the end, you pick a plan to continue. Your records and documents stay safe in your account.
