The operations and scheduling app for pubs, restaurants, cafés and hotels — and any team that runs on shifts. Rotas in seconds, temps and checks paperless, compliance sorted. No more Sunday-night spreadsheets.
Built from nights on the pass, not a product roadmap meeting. Rotas, compliance and the daily grind — in one place your whole team already knows how to use.
Staff set availability a month ahead. Add your events, hit generate, and Covered proposes a draft weighted by skill, fairness and cover — in about two seconds. Drag a few shifts, publish. Or just ask: “build next week like last Friday, plus one on the bar.”
Fridges, freezers and hot-holds logged from the phone in your pocket — timestamped, initialled, and auto-flagged the second something breaches. When the EHO turns up, you hand them a screen, not a box file.
All 14 statutory allergens in a living matrix your team can check in seconds — no laminated sheet from 2021.
Opening, close-down and deep-cleans — ticked off, initialled and timestamped. No more chasing photos.
Broken glass, a dodgy fridge, a near-miss — logged, assigned and tracked, not lost in the group chat.
Covered was born on the pass, but the same rotas, checks and compliance work anywhere a team clocks on and off. Same £1 a head, same 60-second rota.
The rota your team drafts, drags and publishes — and the compliance they tick off — exactly as it runs today.
Live product — sign up and you're running a real shift within the hour.
No IT team, no onboarding call you have to book three weeks out. Plug in your site and run your first shift the same day.
Add your venue, your team and your menu in under an hour. Import from a spreadsheet if you've got one — or start clean.
Tablet on the pass, phone in the pocket. Daily routine, temps and checks live from day one — the team picks it up in one service.
Ask the team for availability. Hit generate. Publish. Next week takes thirty seconds and one cup of coffee.
Most venues juggle a spreadsheet, a WhatsApp group and a folder above the fridge. Covered is one app — at a price that doesn't need a meeting.

We've written the rota at 4am. We've lost the allergen folder mid-inspection. We've chased clean-down photos round a group chat. Covered is the tool we wished we'd had — so we built it.
Most staff pick it up in their first shift. Covered is built to feel like a ticking-off-jobs app, not enterprise software — three taps to set availability, one tap to complete a check.
That's exactly what it's for. Temperature logs, allergens, cleaning records and incidents are all timestamped and exportable, so an inspection turns into showing a screen instead of hunting for a folder.
Yes. Covered runs in any modern browser on any phone or tablet — nothing to install, no special hardware. Sensors and printers are optional extras, not requirements.
Import your team and last week's rota from a spreadsheet and Covered takes it from there. Most sites are generating their first AI draft within the hour.
It's built hospitality-first, but the rota engine, checklists and compliance tools work for any shift-based team — retail, salons, care and events all run on Covered at the same £1 per head.
Covered is opening up to founding venues now. Leave your email and we'll get you set up first — 7 days free, no card, cancel any time.
Every feature, every plan. Just £1 per person, per month.
