Venheim - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Venheim is a digital operations logbook for small businesses in hospitality, food retail and fitness in Austria and Germany – cafés, restaurants, bakeries, butchers, hotels and guesthouses, retail stores and fitness studios.

The idea is simple: nobody should sit down in the evening to write records. Your team plans shifts, clocks in, logs fridge temperatures, ticks off cleaning tasks with a photo and counts stock on their own phones during the shift. From that, Venheim builds the records a food inspector asks for and the monthly package for your accountant.

Team & time: weekly shift plan with requests, swaps and availability, leave accounts, plan in the phone calendar. Time clock on the employee's phone with location check or on a wall tablet, with breaks, correction log and export – compliant with § 26 AZG (Austria) and § 16 ArbZG (Germany).

Hygiene & HACCP: temperature logs with limits per device – an out-of-range value requires a corrective action before the app continues. Cleaning plans with sign-off and photo proof, best-before checks, equipment and inspection intervals for studios. Records are never deleted: every correction carries reason, person and time, and each record has a checksum.

Inspection: a time-limited read-only link (1–90 days) for the inspector – shift plan and team chat stay private. Export as PDF, Excel or CSV.

Goods & accountant: inventory, best-before dates, ordering, stock counts and receipt storage; monthly package for the tax advisor and DATEV payroll export.

Team in 9 languages: German, English, Turkish, Polish, Romanian, Hungarian, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian – records and exports stay in German.

Control room: temperatures, defects, deadlines and logs of all locations on one screen, at the desk or as a wall display.

Data: EU hosting, daily backups, full export anytime – no lock-in.

Venheim was built inside a real hospitality business in Vienna and is used there every day. Free plan for up to 5 people at one location; 30-day Premium trial without payment details.

Note: Venheim is a documentation tool – not a cash register (POS), not a payroll system and no tax or legal advice.
