What you get on day one
One application, every event
Stop emailing the same PDF. Stop chasing missing fields. Vendors apply to your CA events with their permits, COI, and food handler cards already attached.
CalCode-aware VMScore
Each applicant gets a 0-100 score and a letter grade based on their county DEH inspection history. Critical violations and recent failures both count.
Watchlist your roster
Once a vendor is approved, monitor their score over time. Get an email if a permit lapses or a county logs a critical violation.
Frequently asked
Does VMScore work statewide in California?
The application workflow works for any California venue. The compliance score auto-pulls inspection data for the counties listed above (covering ~54% of the state's population). For venues in counties not yet wired up, vendors can still upload their permits and inspection reports manually.
How is California compliance different from Florida?
Florida runs through the state's DBPR Mobile Food Dispensing Vehicle license. California has no state-level retail food license; it's delegated to 58 county Departments of Environmental Health under CalCode. Each county's mobile food vehicle (MFV) permit is what we score against in the counties we cover.
What about insurance and other documents?
Same as Florida: vendors keep a single document vault (COI, business license, food handler card, sellers permit, workers comp). When you require a doc on an event, every applicant's vault gets scanned, so vendors apply with their docs already attached.
When will the rest of California come online?
The Inland Empire, Central Valley, and Bay Area outlier counties (Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Contra Costa, Fresno, Kern, Ventura) are on the roadmap. Several use the same DECADE/Accela permit platform, so once one's wired up the others follow quickly.
