Prove every checkpoint in your location was walked
Guards scan a QR at each checkpoint across your kitchens, restrooms, and dining areas and share GPS. You get a timestamped, mapped patrol record you can export for owners, franchisors, and health inspectors — no wands, no proprietary hardware, no app.

Why Restaurants & Food Service teams use Autonix
After-hours patrols for multi-unit restaurant groups protect cash, equipment, and liquor inventory, and owners want proof the site was checked.
A location is broken into overnight. The owner asks if security walked it. Autonix shows the checkpoint scans — or their absence — instead of an unverifiable guard log.
Prove the patrol was actually walked
Each checkpoint is logged only when a guard scans the QR on site and shares location. GPS and a server-side timestamp make a patrol impossible to fake from the guard booth.
Give owners, franchisors, and health inspectors a patrol record they trust
Every checkpoint plots on a map with the guard’s name and time. Export the full tour for a client report or an incident review in seconds.
No wands, no proprietary hardware
Post a QR at each checkpoint across your kitchens, restrooms, and dining areas and guards scan with their phone. Nothing to buy, nothing to charge, and a five-minute rollout for a new site.
What a proof-of-patrol tour looks like in Autonix
Real screens from the product. Every scan becomes a mapped, timestamped, exportable record.
See every check-in on a live map
The Location Data tab plots a pin for each check-in and lists who, when, and the exact coordinates. Pins cluster at the real site — the visual that ends a dispute.
One check-in, all the proof
Open any visit to see the person, the timestamp, the GPS pin, and the proof photos they captured.
Photo evidence, grouped by visit
Inspections, cleaning, and field work land in a gallery you can review and export with the rest of the record.
A clean, exportable record
Every check-in lands in a searchable log with names, times, and photo counts. Export CSV or pull via API.
Everything you need to prove the patrol
QR checkpoints
One QR per checkpoint. A scan logs the point with guard identity, time, and GPS — no wand required.
Required GPS
Set location to required so a checkpoint can only be logged from the guard’s actual position.
Timestamped tour history
Every scan is server-timestamped and stored, building a complete patrol trail per site.
Exportable patrol reports
Download CSV or pull tours into your reporting or client portal via the Autonix API or Zapier.
Dispute-ending proof from three things that are hard to fake together
The strength of an Autonix check-in is the combination: a physical QR code posted at the location, the visitor’s browser GPS at the moment of the scan, and a server-side timestamp that can’t be hand-edited.
Straight talk: Autonix is built to end everyday “did the work actually happen, and where?” disputes, not to be court-grade anti-spoofing. For rounding, cleaning, inspections, patrols, and field visits, it’s dramatically stronger than a paper sign-off and settles the question in seconds. See our security & trust practices.

Frequently asked questions
Is this useful for a small multi-unit group?
Yes. It’s a five-minute, phone-based setup per location with no hardware, so even a few sites get verifiable patrols.
Can I see patrols across all my locations?
Yes. Tag checkpoints by location and roll every site’s tours into one dashboard.
How does Autonix prove a checkpoint was reached?
A guard scans a physical QR posted at the checkpoint across your kitchens, restrooms, and dining areas and shares location. Each scan is stored with guard identity, a server-side timestamp, and GPS coordinates — an exportable patrol record where the pins cluster at the real checkpoints.
Do guards need proprietary tour wands?
No. Guards scan with the standard phone camera and browser — no wands to buy or charge, and nothing to install. Rolling out a new site or a temporary post is fast and cheap.
Is Autonix a full guard-management suite?
No, and we’re upfront about it: Autonix does one thing well — dispute-ending proof that a checkpoint was walked. It is not a scheduling, incident-management, or dispatch platform. If you need those, pair Autonix with your existing tools.
Can guards fake their GPS location?
We’re honest: no consumer tool is fully tamper-proof against a determined user with a fake-GPS app. Autonix ends everyday "was the patrol walked?" disputes with the QR + GPS + timestamp combination — far stronger than a paper log — rather than claiming court-grade anti-spoofing.
