Your inspectors. Your checklists. Their phone.
BiteBase gives fire departments, health departments, and city clerks a single platform for mobile food vendor inspections, vendor tracking, and compliance management.
Available at no cost for cities and local permitting teams.
Field Inspections from Your Phone
Live nowYour inspectors conduct inspections from their phone or tablet. Open the checklist, go through each item, mark pass or fail, take photos, add notes. When they're done, the results are instantly visible to every department in your jurisdiction.
- Custom checklist templates — fire has theirs, health has theirs
- Pass/Fail/N-A toggle buttons designed for gloved hands
- Photo capture attached to specific checklist items
- Measured values (temperature, sanitizer concentration)
- Auto-complete: all passed → PASSED, any failed → FAILED
- Results visible across departments immediately
Know Who's Operating in Your Area
Live nowSee which vendors are scheduled to operate in your jurisdiction — today, this week, this month. The same view works at every level: city clerks see their city, county health sees their county, state agencies see the whole state.
- State → County → City drill-down hierarchy
- Vendor name, location, time window, event type
- Upcoming/past/all filters with adjustable date range
- County-level breakdown: which cities have vendor activity
- Real-time — updates as vendors schedule events
Every Department Defines Their Own Criteria
Live nowYour fire department has different inspection items than your health department. BiteBase lets each department create their own checklist template. When an inspection is created, the right checklist auto-populates — no manual setup every time.
- Per-department templates: fire, health, building, general
- Custom items with expected values and measurement units
- Help text for inspectors (what to look for, acceptable ranges)
- Templates version-controlled — update without losing history
- Auto-stamp: new inspection gets the current active template
Public Complaint Intake
Live nowAnyone can report a food safety concern through bitebase.com/report. Reports are automatically routed to the right jurisdiction based on city and state. They show up in your operations queue immediately.
- Public form — no login required, anonymous reports accepted
- Category selection: food safety, fire, health, noise, licensing
- Auto-routed to the matching municipality
- Food safety and health complaints flagged as high priority
- Appears in your operations queue and complaint management
Cross-Department Visibility
Live nowYour fire inspector can see health inspection results. Your city clerk can see what fire found. Everyone in your jurisdiction sees the same vendor compliance picture — no more calling across departments to ask if someone passed their inspection.
