Franchise software that keeps every location on brand
We build software for franchisors, franchisees and multi-location businesses such as restaurants, clinics, service brands and retail chains. The work usually connects head office with every site so standards, data and marketing stay consistent.
What gets in the way
- Each location uses its own tools, so head office has no reliable view of sales, customers or performance.
- Royalty and marketing fund calculations depend on self-reported figures that are slow to collect and hard to check.
- Brand standards, training and operating manuals live in documents that are out of date as soon as they are shared.
- Local marketing and online listings drift off brand, and customer reviews go unanswered.
Built with the rules in mind
Franchise systems touch franchise disclosure and registration rules in some countries, employment law boundaries between franchisor and franchisee, and data protection between separate businesses. We build with these in mind and work with your franchise lawyers and advisers.
Technologies we often use
How we help in your market
The rules, platforms and buyer expectations differ by region. We design for the one you sell into.
Europe & UK
The UK has no franchise-specific law, but many brands follow the British Franchise Association's ethics code, while several EU countries, including France, Spain and Italy, require pre-contract disclosure. Franchisor and franchisees are usually separate controllers under the GDPR. We build document delivery records, clear data-sharing boundaries and permissions between businesses.
United States
US franchisors must provide a Franchise Disclosure Document under the FTC Franchise Rule, and some states require registration before offering franchises. We build FDD delivery and receipt tracking, state-aware sales pipelines and portals that support your counsel's approach to joint-employer risk.
Canada
Several provinces, including Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia, have franchise disclosure laws, and Quebec Law 25 and PIPEDA govern customer data. We build disclosure document tracking, bilingual English and French franchisee portals and data controls your advisers can review.

Common questions
How much does a franchise management platform cost?
It depends on the modules and the number of systems it connects to, so we quote from a written requirements document. Many franchisors launch a franchisee portal first, within a few months, and add reporting after.
Can you integrate with FranConnect or Naranga?
Where they provide APIs or exports, yes. We can extend your current franchise platform or build a custom system and migrate the data.
Can you pull sales from Square, Toast or Lightspeed POS?
Yes, through their APIs. We collect sales by location automatically so royalty and performance reports no longer rely on manual submissions.
Can the system calculate royalties and marketing fund fees?
Yes. We apply the fee rules from your franchise agreements, generate statements and invoices, and keep a clear audit trail for disputes.
Can you track FDD delivery for US franchise sales?
Yes. We record when disclosure documents are sent and receipts are signed, so your team and counsel can see waiting periods at a glance.
Can franchisees complete site audits on a phone?
Yes. We build audit apps with checklists, photos, scores and action plans that head office can review and follow up.
Can every location have its own page on our website?
Yes. We build a central site with local pages for each location, including opening hours, booking and structured data for local search.
How do you keep franchisees' customer data separate?
We set permissions so each franchisee sees only its own customers, and agree with your advisers which data is shared with head office and why.
Can AI answer franchisee questions from our operations manual?
Yes. We build assistants that answer from your approved manuals and link to the source section, so franchisees get consistent answers.
How does the project run from start to finish?
We agree a written requirements document, then demo working software every two weeks until launch. You choose fixed scope, a dedicated team or time and materials, and you own the code and accounts.
