Quality checks for food and beverage plants
Catch it on the line. Prove it at the audit.
LineAssure puts every line-side quality check on a tablet. Operators are guided step by step, out-of-spec readings put the line on hold and alert QA, and every answer, photo and signature is kept as an audit-ready record.
Built for SQF, BRCGS and FSMA record-keeping. Runs on your own server or in the cloud.

Paper checks fail quietly.
A missed check, a reading nobody questioned, a sheet that never made it back to the office. You only find out when product is already on a truck, or when the auditor asks.
Checks get missed
Nobody knows a check is overdue until the end of the shift.
Problems surface too late
An out-of-spec reading on paper doesn't stop the line or call anyone.
Audits mean a paper chase
Days spent finding, retyping and initialling records before every audit.
What LineAssure does
Two jobs, done properly.
Catch it on the line
- Guided checks at every lineA tablet kiosk for each plant, area and line. Scheduled checks count down so nothing is missed.
- Failures hold the lineA failed check can block production and emails the right people. So does an overdue one.
- Allergen changeover built inWhen a run change leaves allergens behind, a clean-down check appears and the line stays on hold until it passes.
- AI reads date codes and inspects photosSnap a pack and LineAssure confirms the Best By date. Visual inspection compares photos to your reference images.
- Silent inspection from your camerasImages dropped into a folder by line cameras are inspected automatically, with no operator needed.
Prove it at the audit
- Tamper-evident supervisor sign-offA second person approves with their password. Each signature is sealed, and shows as void if the record changes afterwards.
- Every answer, photo and change on recordWho did what and when, with annotated inspection photos and an activity log of every settings change.
- Control charts and CpkAny numeric check becomes a control chart that flags drift and out-of-spec readings before they become a hold.
- Reports in plain EnglishAsk for “pass rate by line for 30 days” and get the charts. The numbers are calculated from your own records.
- Export for the auditorPrintable reports and CSV exports, including sign-off status, ready when they ask.
How it works
Build your checks without IT.
Turn your paper forms into guided checks in an afternoon. QA owns the checks, not a software project.
- 1Start from a template for line start-up, date codes, barcodes, weight logs or allergen clean-down.
- 2Or just describe it. Type what operators should check and when, and LineAssure drafts the workflow for you to review.
- 3Fine-tune it on the canvas. Drag in questions, set limits, and branch on the answers. A built-in lesson shows how each question type works.
- 4Publish to the line. It appears on every tablet automatically, on schedule.
Every kind of check your plant runs.
Mix question types in one check, and branch on any answer.
Trends
See drift before it becomes a hold.
Every numeric check becomes a control chart, filtered by line, product and period. LineAssure flags out-of-spec readings, runs on one side of the mean and steady drift, and says so in plain words.
- Control limits calculated from your data
- Cpk once there are 20 or more readings
- Click any point to open that check
Illustrative data.
Built for the plant floor, and for IT.
Wi-Fi drops, gloves, shared tablets, three shifts. LineAssure was designed around them.
Keeps working offline
Checks carry on if the network drops, and every device syncs within seconds when it returns. Results never overwrite each other.
The right access for each role
Operators, supervisors, facility managers and admins each see what they need. Every site sees only its own data.
Your server or the cloud
Run it on a PC in the plant or on Microsoft Azure with PostgreSQL. Encrypted connections either way.
Backed up automatically
Daily compressed backups, 30 kept, plus on-demand backups and downloads for admins.
Secure sign-in
Hashed passwords, rate-limited sign-in and signed sessions. Ready for Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
AI that respects your data
Report building sends only the names of your lines, checks and products, never results, people or photos.
