It’s perfect for small businesses, new sites, or teams wanting to trial and test the Didge platform without any cost.

A checkpoint is a specific, repeatable point where data enters your system—such as a form entry, measurement, inspection, or verification step.

You’re charged per checkpoint, not per submission, user, task, or form.

Here’s a refined version that incorporates your explanation and clearly connects checkpoints to checklists in real operational use:

Example: How Checkpoints Work in Practice

A good way to understand a checkpoint is to think of it as a checklist.

For example, your stewarding checklist might include all the verification tasks for cleaning, dishwasher temperature checks, and even Vision AI (Ridgy AI) video evidence capture. All of these tasks together form one checklist, and therefore one checkpoint.

Now imagine you have three kitchens: Hot, Cold, and Pastry, and you use the same stewarding checklist on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis. Even though the checklist itself is the same, each kitchen needs to complete its own version at each frequency.

That means:

• The daily stewarding checklist becomes one checkpoint per kitchen

• The weekly stewarding checklist becomes one checkpoint per kitchen

• The monthly stewarding checklist becomes one checkpoint per kitchen

So across three kitchens and three frequencies, you end up with nine checkpoints.

This shows how a checkpoint functions as a repeatable, location-specific checklist, a single structured point where data is captured, evidence is collected, and compliance is verified, tailored to each area of your operation.

Here’s a clean, clear example showing how a checkpoint = a form in a CCP scenario:

Example: How a Checkpoint Works for a CCP (Cook–Chill)

In some cases, a checkpoint is best understood simply as a form especially when dealing with Critical Control Points (CCPs).

For example, consider a Cook–Chill CCP form. This form may include multiple CCP steps such as:

• CCP 3: Cooking temperature verification

• CCP 4: Rapid chilling verification

Both of these steps are part of one Cook–Chill form that operators complete to record temperatures, times, corrective actions, and any supporting evidence.

Now imagine you carry out the Cook–Chill process in three different kitchens:

• The Hot Kitchen

• The Central Production Kitchen

• The À la Carte Kitchen

Even if the form is identical in all locations, each kitchen requires its own insance of this Cook–Chill form because each site needs to record its own operational data and its own CCP compliance evidence.

This means:

• Cook–Chill form in the Hot Kitchen → 1 checkpoint

• Cook–Chill form in the Central Production Kitchen → 1 checkpoint

• Cook–Chill form in the À la Carte Kitchen → 1 checkpoint

Total: 3 Cook–Chill checkpoints

You can submit as many Cook–Chill records as you need, dozens or hundreds per day, but only the number of checkpoints (the form locations) matters, not how many submissions you make.

This example shows how, in CCP workflows, a checkpoint works exactly like a form that is deployed into different operational areas.

Yes.

The $20/month plan includes 15 paid checkpoints + 3 free checkpoints, giving you 18 total checkpoints for that tier.

Each pricing tier allows up to a certain number of checkpoints.

If your business grows and you exceed the limit:

• You automatically move into the next tier, or

• You can choose to purchase additional checkpoints in packs of 50.

This keeps pricing flexible and scalable as your operations expand.

You can add more checkpoints at any time by purchasing 50-checkpoint bundles.

Buy as many as you need, your subscription scales with your operational footprint.

Pricing is per site.

There is no per-user fee, no extra charge for departments, and no network-level pricing.

Unlimited users.

Invite your entire team—managers, supervisors, auditors, and frontline staff at no extra cost.
