Care Home Kitchen Operations

Your kitchen runs on paper. It shouldn't.

PlateLogic is the AI kitchen manager for care homes. It plans menus, tracks dietary needs, handles IDDSI compliance, and manages ordering, so your chefs can focus on cooking.

The reality of care home kitchens

15k

UK care homes

Each one feeding residents 3+ meals a day with complex, individual dietary needs. Most manage it with spreadsheets.

8+

IDDSI texture levels

Every resident may require a different texture modification. One wrong meal can be a safeguarding incident.

40%

Chef time on admin

Menu planning, allergen documentation, ordering, CQC compliance paperwork. Time that should be spent cooking.

0

AI-native tools exist

Current software digitises the paperwork. None of it thinks. None of it plans. None of it adapts autonomously.

How PlateLogic works

An AI that manages your kitchen operations end-to-end

01

Resident profiles in, compliant menus out

Enter each resident's dietary needs, allergies, IDDSI level, and preferences. PlateLogic generates weekly menus that satisfy every constraint automatically.

02

Dietary changes propagate instantly

When a resident's care plan changes, PlateLogic adjusts their meals across all future menus. No manual updates, no missed changes, no risk.

03

Ordering that predicts, not reacts

Based on your menus, resident count, and historical consumption, PlateLogic generates precise supplier orders. Less waste, lower costs, never caught short.

04

CQC-ready documentation, always

Allergen records, nutritional analysis, menu histories, and compliance logs generated continuously. Inspection-ready without scrambling.
