A paperless food safety program built by people who understand kitchens.
ChefSmart brings your entire HACCP-based food safety program into one cloud-backed app, so your team can log, track, and prove compliance without a binder full of paper.
ChefSmart was created by HLP Controls, a business with a background in testing and measuring equipment for the food and hospitality industries. That equipment expertise, combined with input from an in-house HACCP system facilitator, shaped an app designed specifically around the way commercial kitchens actually operate.
Instead of juggling paper logs, spreadsheets, and wall-mounted checklists, ChefSmart centralises everything your food safety program requires — built around the seven HACCP principles — into a single app that any team member can use from a phone or tablet.
Seven core tools, one app
Every feature can be adapted to suit your kitchen, cafe, or business — however it’s set up today.
Principal Logs
Record temperature, pH, percentage, time, and gram readings against individual units, each with its own set points and reminder notifications so checks never get missed.
Delivery Logs
Keep an approved supplier list and log every incoming delivery — temperature, invoice, batch numbers, and expiry dates — with the option to record a rejected delivery too.
Process Logs
Step-by-step recording of food preparation processes, tracking starting and finishing readings live or entered after the fact.
Task Schedule
Build a full cleaning, maintenance, and task calendar with up to 20 steps per task, recurring on the frequency you choose, and signed off by the person who completed it.
Food Safety Program
Every subscription includes a ready-made food safety program, or upload your own documentation for your team to read and formally acknowledge.
Forms & Records
A central home for licences, calibrations, contractor maintenance, and certificates — organised into folders with images, descriptions, and time stamps.
Built by testing & measuring specialists
HLP Controls’ background in testing and measuring equipment led to the ChefSmart Bluetooth thermometer, designed to work seamlessly alongside the app.
7-year cloud record keeping
Every entry is logged against a specific user and stored in the cloud for up to seven years, accessible anytime from the admin portal.
Privacy-first by design
As listed on the App Store, the ChefSmart app does not collect personal data from its users.
Reusable templates
Create process log and task schedule templates once, then reuse and share them across your team to cut down repetitive data entry.
Available on iPhone & iPad
ChefSmart runs on iPhone and iPad, with a companion admin portal accessible from any internet-connected device.
