Document Management Software for Late-Night Bars
Upload any document and AI classifies it, extracts key data, and creates the right record automatically.

Built specifically for UK late-night bars.
Understanding late-night bar compliance
Late-night bars sit at the intersection of food, alcohol, and entertainment licensing. They face the same compliance load as nightclubs at smaller scale: refusals logs, Challenge 25, capacity, and incident records.
Challenge 25 enforcement and refusals book evidence
Capacity tracking when fire-safety occupancy is contested
Door staff scheduling for venues that flex from bar to club after midnight
Drink-spiking response policies and witness coordination

Why late-night bars choose Paddl for document management
Common questions about Document Management for late-night bars
How does smart document upload work?
Drop any file and AI analyses the content, classifies it into one of 13+ categories, extracts structured data, and offers to create the right record automatically. A single SDS upload creates a complete COSHH record. A menu PDF populates your allergen matrix. A paper checklist becomes a digital routine.
What types of records can AI create from uploads?
AI creates COSHH records from SDS sheets, digital routines from checklists, allergen items from menus, risk assessments from uploaded forms, and knowledge articles from SOPs. For insurance, licences, leases, and business rates, it builds specialist dashboards with AI-powered risk analysis and key date tracking.
Can I upload everything at once when switching from paper?
Yes. Upload multiple files in bulk and AI classifies and processes each one independently. This makes onboarding fast: your existing paperwork populates your COSHH register, creates routines, builds your allergen chart, and sets up expiry tracking across everything.
What documents do EHO inspectors want?
Paddl knows what EHO inspectors typically request. One click generates a document package with your HACCP plan, temperature records, training certificates, cleaning schedules, and supplier information - everything ready to share.
