Restaurant groups switching from SmartSense saw 60% faster operations

Here's what drove the switch from Jolt (SmartSense) to Xenia

Branching Logic Built In

One template adapts to every location's setup and equipment, so your team isn't maintaining five versions of the same checklist.

Reporting That Rolls Up

See every location's scores and open items in one live dashboard, not a report you have to piece together store by store.

Migration Without the Wait

The Template Agent turns your existing Jolt forms into digital checklists, so your team keeps working while the switch happens in the background.

The Complete Alternative to Jolt for Multi-Unit Restaurants

Everything a multi-unit operation needs to execute, verify, and improve, in one platform.
One Template That Handles Every Location's Differences

Schedule recurring tasks across all locations or target specific attributes like stores with 24-hour operations or drive-thrus. Set different frequencies by region or individual store while maintaining role-based assignments that transfer as staff changes.

Unlimited if/then branching means a patio location, a drive-thru, and a dine-in-only restaurant can share one template instead of three separate forms.
Bidirectional approvals send a submission from store to regional to corporate and back, with comments and photo annotations, so nothing gets lost in an email chain.
A failed item or out-of-range reading creates a corrective task automatically, assigned to the right role with a deadline attached.
Build a new workflow from a plain-language prompt or convert an existing form, so your team isn't stuck waiting on IT to make a change.

See Every Restaurant, Not Just One at a Time

Live dashboards show task completion rates by team member, location, district, and region. Drill into each task to see quality, time-to-completion, and which team members completed which sections of work.

Role-based dashboards roll every location's scores and completion rates into one live view for corporate, regional, and store leaders.
Submissions sync in real time, so a district manager is working from what happened this morning, not a report that lagged a day behind.
Score trending shows whether each location is improving or slipping over time, not just a single snapshot from the last visit.
Drill from a network-wide view down to a single submission, complete with photo and timestamp, in two taps.

Automated Temperature Logs on Hardware You Already Own

Submit critical work from mobile devices completely offline in areas without connectivity. Capture photo documentation, voice notes, and annotations that auto-sync when devices come back online.

Bluetooth thermometers log every reading with an automatic timestamp, so nothing gets written down after the fact.
Wireless sensors monitor coolers and freezers around the clock and alert your team the moment a reading drifts out of range.
Xenia works with the sensors and thermometers you already have, so there's no hardware fleet to commit to just to get started.
Pull 30+ days of temperature logs on a tablet during an inspection itself, with no printing and no digging through binders.
A Platform Your Frontline Actually Uses

Submit critical work from mobile devices completely offline in areas without connectivity. Capture photo documentation, voice notes, and annotations that auto-sync when devices come back online.

Mobile-first design keeps load times fast and works on the tablets and phones your restaurants already have.
Offline mode saves progress automatically, so a spotty connection in the back of house never costs a completed checklist.
One-tap task completion with automatic GPS and timestamp verification keeps entries honest without adding extra steps.
A clean, scannable interface needs near-zero training, so new hires and seasonal staff are productive on day one.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Xenia different from Jolt?

Xenia gives you unlimited conditional logic, bidirectional approvals between store and corporate, and role-based dashboards that roll up across every location, live today. That's the gap most Jolt alternative searches are trying to close: seeing the whole network in one place, not just one store at a time.

Will switching from Jolt disrupt daily operations?

No. The Template Agent converts your existing Jolt checklists and forms into digital templates automatically, and a dedicated success manager runs the go-live, so store teams keep working while corporate manages the switch. Most restaurant groups are fully live in one to three months.

Will our frontline teams actually adopt it?

Xenia is mobile-first, works offline, and needs near-zero training, which is how it reaches 95% frontline adoption even with teams that have never used a digital checklist before. One-tap task completion keeps the learning curve short.

 Is Xenia secure enough for multi-location deployment?

Yes. Xenia is SOC 2 Type 1 compliant keeps full audit logs of every login and system change, and gives each region or franchisee role-based access to only their own locations' data.

Does pricing scale as we add locations?

Xenia prices per location with unlimited users included, so adding general managers, district leads, or new hires doesn't change your bill the way per-user pricing does. Add locations as you grow without renegotiating for every new user.

Can Xenia handle food safety and temperature logs the way we're used to, whether we know the tool as Jolt or SmartSense?

Yes. Bluetooth thermometers and wireless sensors log readings automatically with timestamps, and continuous monitoring alerts your team the moment a cooler or freezer drifts out of range. Xenia works with the sensors and hardware you already have, so there's nothing new to buy into.
