- Businesses that need a downloadable HACCP plan, SOPs and traceability records ready for inspections

Not for
- Single-site operators whose simple, low-risk food handling is already covered by paper logs

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to get FoodDocs live?
The vendor advertises an automated setup that builds a ready-to-use food safety system in about 15 minutes, with pre-set monitoring tasks generated from your business profile. A free 14-day trial covers the full feature set. Its published onboarding plan runs from day 1 to roughly day 45, when HACCP plans, SOPs, traceability and reporting are finalised.
What does FoodDocs cost?
Annual prices per site are $948 (Lite), $1,999 (Standard) and $2,999 (Professional), with unlimited users on every plan; monthly billing is $79, $167 and $250 respectively. Enterprise is custom priced. Onboarding implementation fees of $999 or $1,249 appear on higher tiers, and the vendor says no long-term contract is required.
Do we have to replace our temperature sensors or smart fridges?
No. FoodDocs states it integrates with temperature sensors and smart fridges through an open API, and lists ConnectedFresh, Thinnect and SmartSense as official integration partners. Readings sync automatically into temperature monitoring checks and overviews, and the vendor says the open API works with sensor providers not on its partner list.
Is FoodDocs certified for security and compliance?
The pages reviewed state that FoodDocs uses industry-standard cryptographic authentication, daily backups retained for one week by default, role-based access controlled by the main user, and AWS infrastructure spread across Central European availability zones. No SOC 2, ISO 27001 or other certification is published on the pages inspected, so buyers should request evidence directly.
Can digital records replace our paper HACCP logs for inspectors?
FoodDocs positions itself as inspection software that keeps records ready for EHO or health inspections, and the HACCP plan, monitoring records and traceability logs can be downloaded as PDF or CSV on paid plans. The vendor notes the software supports but cannot guarantee regulatory compliance, since local authorities interpret rules differently, and templates should be reviewed and customised.
Where is FoodDocs based and how is it supported?
The vendor says it has three head offices in the US, UK and Europe, with its development team in Europe and sales and support teams on-site in New York and London. Support on all plans includes a knowledge base, email and live chat; Professional and Enterprise add priority support and a dedicated Customer Success Manager.
