A repeating menu, a consented register, and an automatic daily check that flags exactly who to watch before a single meal is served — not another self-check app, a system that runs itself in the background.
Ahead of Benedict's Law becoming statutory for schools this September, we're finishing our own testing on a live demo account first — register your interest below and we'll be in touch the moment it's ready.

Not legal advice — a plain-language summary to show what this software actually helps evidence.
The DfE's "Allergy Safety in Schools" statutory guidance (published 6 July 2026) expects every school to hold a whole-school allergy policy, train all staff annually, keep spare adrenaline auto-injectors on site, and maintain an individual healthcare plan for each pupil with a serious allergy.
There's no named-person law for care homes the way schools have Benedict's Law — but resident dietary and allergy safety sits squarely under CQC's fundamental standards, and campaigns like Owen's Law are pushing written allergen disclosure further across food service generally.
Set it up once, and the daily check runs itself from there.
Menus in schools and care homes cycle, not change daily — tag a dish's allergens once, on its cycle day, and it's covered every time it comes round again. Save whole menus as named templates (e.g. "Autumn term," "Half-term") and line them up to hand over to each other automatically on a schedule.
One entry per pupil or resident, with mandatory recorded consent from a parent/guardian or the resident/next of kin before anything is saved — even "no known allergies." Filter and group by class or year.
Every morning, every active person on the register is cross-checked against today's actual menu — no one has to remember to look anything up.
Generate a scannable Allergy ID card straight from a register entry — a pupil can show their own code instead of staff looking them up, on a phone, printed, or added to Apple/Google Wallet.
Record any serious allergy reaction or near miss — logging one automatically flags that person's Individual Healthcare Plan for an early review, and marks any adrenaline auto-injector used as needing replacement.
Track spare, general-use adrenaline auto-injector devices by dose, brand, expiry and storage location — flags automatically when stock drops below the DfE's recommended minimum for schools.
A printable, per-person allergy action plan — allergies, care notes, consent record, and the standard anaphylaxis emergency steps, on one page.
A photo-free, postable summary for the prep area — who, which group, and what to avoid, grouped by class or room.
A printable, one-row-per-staff-member record of who's completed allergen awareness training and when — ready to show an inspector.
A rough-and-ready readiness indicator — policy published, AAI stock, staff training, IHP reviews — with a clear pointer to whatever's still outstanding, not a one-off checklist that goes stale.
Give each named member of staff their own short PIN, so register edits are attributed to a real person rather than "a member of staff" — with manager-only permissions for the most sensitive actions.
A shareable link so a parent or next of kin can add their own child or relative to the register directly, with their own recorded consent — no re-typing what they've already told you.
One connected system — not a stack of separate paperwork.
Tag allergens once, on the cycle day — templates hand over to each other automatically.
Nothing saves without recorded consent from a parent/guardian or the resident/next of kin.
Every morning, everyone on the register is cross-checked against today's actual menu, automatically.
Generated straight from their register entry — phone, print, or Apple/Google Wallet.
Same dashboard shows their allergies against today's menu instantly — no relying on memory.
Log a reaction and it flags that person's Action Plan for early review — any auto-injector used gets marked as needing replacement.
Readiness score, training log and inspection-day pack all update from the same data, automatically.
Covered once, covered every day after — the daily check and the card keep running themselves.
+ + + + + + = one connected system
This isn't a stripped-down side product — it's the same engine restaurants already rely on.
Every check, edit and consent record in the register is chained to the one right before it — quietly alter a past entry, and every link after it breaks. Any school or care home that's switched on public verification can be checked here, no login needed.
Every school and care home gets 2 months free, no card required. After that it's from £999/year, all-inclusive — every feature, no add-ons. Set-up is free too.
