FrigoSense

FrigoSense turns your fridge, freezer or cold room into a smart, monitored space. Pair a FrigoSense device over Bluetooth, connect it to Wi-Fi, and watch your storage conditions in real time from your phone. WHAT IT DOES - Live monitoring of temperature, humidity and air quality inside your cold storage. - Early spoilage and freshness insights based on gas and temperature trends. - Push notifications when conditions drift — temperature excursions, a door left open, or early signs of spoilage — so you can act before food is lost. - Simple Bluetooth setup: add a new device and get it online in minutes. WHO IT'S FOR - Home users who want to keep food fresh and cut waste. - Cafes, restaurants, shops and small cold-storage operators who need to know the moment something goes wrong. HOW IT WORKS FrigoSense measures the air inside your storage — not the food itself — and combines temperature history with gas signals to flag risk early. It is a monitoring and early-warning tool, not a food-safety or pathogen test: always use your own judgement about whether food is safe to eat. Requires a FrigoSense account and at least one FrigoSense device.
