How is EvidLY different from ComplianceKitchen for commercial kitchens?

They serve different needs. ComplianceKitchen automates California notice compliance (SB 294), RBS certification tracking, and allergen management. EvidLY is purpose-built for California commercial kitchens — mapping all 58 county and four city health department evaluation methods, covering fire safety alongside food safety, and detecting insurance documentation gaps. ComplianceKitchen posts the right notices. EvidLY delivers county-specific compliance intelligence.

Does ComplianceKitchen cover fire safety for commercial kitchens?

No. ComplianceKitchen is focused on notices, certifications, and allergen tracking. Hood cleaning schedules under NFPA 96, fire suppression inspections, and Local Fire Authority requirements are not covered. EvidLY covers both food safety and fire safety in one place.

Can ComplianceKitchen match my county’s evaluation method?

ComplianceKitchen identifies which California laws apply (SB 294 notices), but it does not have built-in knowledge of how specific California counties evaluate commercial kitchens. EvidLY maps all 58 California counties and four city health departments and matches your dashboard to your county’s actual evaluation method.

How does ComplianceKitchen pricing compare to EvidLY?

ComplianceKitchen is $59/month with a 14-day free trial. EvidLY Founder starts at $99/month (your Founder rate locks for 24 months from signup) with no per-seat fees, $49/month per additional location. ComplianceKitchen covers notices and certifications. EvidLY Founder includes food safety, fire safety, county-specific intelligence, and policy and lease condition identification for all 58 California counties and four city health departments.

Credit Where It's Due

What ComplianceKitchen does well.

Built for California from day one — SB 294 / required-notice automation is genuinely useful
RBS certification tracking with expiration alerts
Allergen tracker with a searchable menu database

Where It Stops

Where ComplianceKitchen stops.

No fire safety — hood cleaning, suppression, and fire authority requirements are invisible
Identifies which laws apply — not how your county evaluates. No county scoring methodology, grade cards, or inspection-frequency intelligence
Notice-and-certificate focused — labor-law disclosures more than operational kitchen evidence
Doesn’t read your insurance policies or your lease
