- A renewal tracker spreadsheet: Zero budget
Hospitality businesses juggle multiple insurance policies - public liability, employer's liability, product liability, building and contents, and business interruption at a minimum. Keeping track of renewal dates, coverage limits, and policy documents across locations is a genuine operational burden. Insurance management software helps businesses centralise policies, extract key details from dense documents, and stay ahead of renewals. We compared the options available to UK hospitality operators.

Our Picks
Paddl
Best for: Policies, gaps and renewals in one placeUpload the policy documents and the AI reads the cover, lists the gaps and sets renewal reminders; the evidence pack pulls the site's own records when a claim comes.
Your broker's client portal
Best for: Documents and renewal datesMost UK brokers and direct insurers give policyholders a login that shows the documents and renewal dates for the policies they sold. It does not compare cover across insurers or read the policy for gaps.
A renewal tracker spreadsheet
Best for: Zero budgetOur free insurance renewal tracker template lists every policy, insurer, excess and renewal date in one sheet. Reliable if somebody owns it; silent if they leave.
Citation
Best for: Advice retainers with a portalCitation sells H&S and HR advice on multi-year terms with a client portal for documents; insurance is not its product, though its risk assessments feed the insurer conversation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is employer's liability insurance legally required?
Yes, employer's liability insurance is a legal requirement for most UK businesses that employ staff. You must have at least £5 million of cover (most policies offer £10 million). The certificate must be displayed where employees can see it, or made available electronically. Failure to have it can result in fines of up to £2,500 per day.
How often should I review my hospitality insurance?
Review your insurance at least annually at renewal time, but also whenever your business circumstances change - opening a new location, changing your menu significantly, adding outdoor seating, starting deliveries, or hiring more staff. Any of these changes could affect your coverage requirements.
Can AI really extract information from insurance documents?
Yes. Modern AI can read insurance policy documents and extract key details like coverage limits, excess amounts, exclusions, and renewal dates. The accuracy depends on document quality - clear digital PDFs work best, while scanned or handwritten documents may need manual verification. It is significantly faster than reading through policies manually.
