The self-hosted iAuditor alternative (SafetyCulture)
Safora: Replace the paper food-safety diary with auto-flagged deviations and a PDF and CSV export for any date range. Own it once, run it on your own server, and stop paying SafetyCulture (iAuditor) every month.
Stop renting SafetyCulture (iAuditor).
4 months of SafetyCulture (iAuditor) costs what Safora costs once.
Buy onceHow we counted: Per seat - a generic inspection/checklist tool, not HACCP-specific; a multi-staff kitchen pays per seat, so real cost usually exceeds the headline. Re-read 2026-09-07, unchanged in every figure: $24 annually ('save 17%'), $29 monthly, both 'excl. all applicable taxes', Free at $0 with team size capped at ten seats, and AI credits sold on at $0.01 per credit.
SafetyCulture's Premium plan is billed per seat per month, so the price rises directly with headcount.

SafetyCulture is a general inspection and checklist platform with a free plan for teams of up to 10 and AI credits on every plan; Safora is shaped around HACCP records from the first screen, and also offers optional single sign-on.

If you need a ready-made probe or IoT integration, stay where you are — Safora takes readings from staff, and from any probe that can post to its REST API.
What Safora deliberately doesn't do is on its product page.
Why owning beats renting SafetyCulture (iAuditor).
No monthly, per-seat or per-location fees. The license is perpetual.
It never lives in SafetyCulture (iAuditor)'s cloud.
Records and users are limited by your hosting, not by a pricing tier.
Self-hosted software can't be sunset or repriced out from under you.
The fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up and apply updates yourself. See the product page for its limits, and the full Safora vs renting comparison.
