frunt
Staff training & compliance software for independent restaurants
Preparation, not improvisation.
Start here
The documents you already keep, finally training your team.
Your allergen matrix, the food-safety SOPs, the staff handbook — right now they sit in a folder nobody opens. frunt reads each one, turns it into role-specific training your staff actually do, and keeps a sourced answer for every question hidden inside it.
The paperwork you're already required to keep becomes the thing that prepares the team — no rewriting, no consultant, no course-builder. Upload what you have; frunt does the rest and waits for you to confirm before anything goes live.
- Read, classified and versioned the moment you upload
- Turned into courses your team sit on their phone
- When a document changes, the matching training is flagged
Trained, and proven
Keep the whole team current — and prove it.
One glance shows every staff member against every course their role needs — passed, due, expired, not started. frunt builds the statutory courses from your own documents, then asks you to review them before they go out.
Every version is dated and attributed, so the audit trail an EHO asks for is already written — including the legal basis behind each lesson.
- Per-staff × per-course compliance, at a glance
- Courses generated from your documents, reviewed by you
- On-change retraining + a versioned, citable record
Why this matters. The allergen matrix on a clipboard is out of date the moment a supplier swaps an ingredient. frunt keeps the document, the training and the attestation moving together — so the team knows the current version, not the one on the pass.

Keep everyone current
Post it once. Everyone's on the same page — and you can prove it.
The new spring menu, Saturday's private hire, an allergen change — post it once and it lands on every phone as a card. The team taps to acknowledge, and you watch the read-receipts tick in. The update goes out, and you're the only one who can see exactly who's seen it.
01
Post once
Write the update, pick who needs it.
02
It pushes to phones
Lands as a clean card, not a buried message.
03
They acknowledge
One tap confirms they've seen it.
04
You see who's read it
Live read-receipts. No chasing.
Ask frunt — the escape valve
When prep wasn't enough, the answer's already there.
Between shifts or before doors, anyone can ask frunt a question and get a straight answer drawn from your documents — the cook temperature in your HACCP plan, your Challenge-25 procedure, your refusal-of-service policy.
Answers come back as a sourced brief, not a chat bubble and not a generic AI guess. It's the safety net for when preparation falls short — not somewhere to live during service.
Run the floor
Who's working, what they can do, what's on.
Your team, their roles and stations, contracted hours and seats — all in one place. Build the rota by typing in plain words or let frunt schedule it, mark what's on each day, and read the payroll hours straight off the week.
The same prepared team that reads your briefs and sits your courses is the team you roster — one source of truth, not three spreadsheets. Everyone sees their shifts the moment you publish.
Live by your next service
Set up in an afternoon, not a quarter.
A new restaurant doesn't start at a blank screen. frunt shows you the documents a place like yours is expected to keep, ticks off what you've already uploaded, and lists what's still missing with a button to add each one.
No consultant, no implementation project — just upload what you have and frunt does the filing, the training and the trail around it.
Built for
The independent restaurant manager who wears every hat.
You're operations, HR, training, compliance, and floor lead — sometimes all inside the same shift. You don't have a learning specialist on staff, and you don't have an afternoon to author training courses.
Generic tools assume someone in the building is paid to build content. Independent kitchens don't have that person. frunt is built for the independent restaurant where the manager wears every hat — and the team you have is the team that has to know.
Now onboarding independent restaurants across the UK
Grounded in the rules you're actually held to.
frunt isn't a generic course library with a hospitality skin. The training, the templates and the answers are built on the same guidance an inspector works from — so what your team learns is current, and what you can prove is real.
Built on the live FSA pack
Courses and templates track the current Safer Food, Better Business guidance — rechecked every quarter.
ACAS & ICO grounded
Employment and records guidance follows the current ACAS Code and ICO employment-practices guidance.
An audit trail an EHO can read
Every document, course and attestation is dated, versioned and attributed — the record is already written.
Made in the UK, for independents
Built for independent restaurants — not enterprise chains, not a generic LMS.
