Why kitchens switch

The clipboard on the fridge door had a good run

Paper registers

  • Temperatures filled in at the end of the week from memory
  • No way to prove a surface was actually cleaned
  • Allergen labels handwritten, often missing or wrong
  • Supplier licences in a drawer, expiry dates unknown
  • Training records scattered across files and phones
  • Two days of panic gathering records before an audit

A Gutdgest kitchen

  • Every reading time-stamped, signed or sent by a sensor
  • Photo proof attached to the checks that matter
  • Labels printed from confirmed recipes with use-by dates
  • Licence register with reminders before anything lapses
  • Training, quizzes and certificates for every person
  • An audit pack exported in minutes, any day of the year
For chains and central kitchens

Ten kitchens, one morning view

Area managers see every outlet's Audit Ready score, missed checks and open temperature alerts before the first service. Shared templates mean every kitchen is checked the same way, and the weakest kitchen gets the visit.

  • Shared checklists, recipes and audit formats across outlets
  • Central kitchen batches traced to every outlet that received them
  • Role-based access for owners, area managers and shift leads

Food safety and responsible AI

Clear about who decides

Your responsibility stays yours. Gutdgest helps kitchens keep food-safety records. The business remains responsible for food safety and licensing.

AI flags, people check. The AI flags possible hygiene issues from photos and logs. Kitchen managers check and decide.

Chefs confirm labels. Allergen labels are generated from recipes the kitchen enters. The kitchen confirms them.

Health records stay private. Staff health records are confidential and visible only to authorised managers.

Your data is not for sale. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and never sold.

Questions

Asked at the pass

The questions owners, head chefs and food-safety leads ask before their first shift with Gutdgest.

Ask us something else
Does Gutdgest give FSSAI licences?

No. Gutdgest does not issue licences or certificates. It keeps your food-safety records complete, organised and ready, so you are prepared when an inspector or auditor visits. Your business stays responsible for food safety and licensing.

Do we need sensors?

They help, especially for overnight and holiday monitoring of chillers and freezers. Manual logs work too: staff enter probe readings on a phone in a few seconds. You can start without sensors and add them later.

Is AI a replacement for a food-safety officer?

No. The AI Kitchen Inspector flags possible hygiene issues in photos and logs. Your kitchen manager or food-safety officer checks each flag and decides what to do.

Can staff use it in local languages?

Yes. Checklists, lessons and quizzes are available in Hindi, Assamese, Bengali and English. Each staff member chooses the language they read best.

Does it work for many outlets?

Yes. The Thali plan covers up to 10 kitchens and Banquet is built for chains and food factories, with central audits, outlet comparisons and shared templates.

How long does setup take?

Most single kitchens are running on day one. Pick checklist templates, list your fridges and freezers, add your team and start the next shift. Multi-outlet setups usually take one to two weeks, including sensors.

21:45 · Kitchen closed, sparkling

Last ticket of the night: your kitchen.

The floor is mopped, the chiller reads 2 °C and every closing task has a photo. Put your kitchen on the rail and run your first safe service day with Gutdgest tomorrow morning.
