Operations software for small food brands

Run your facility like a team twice your size.

MadeOps replaces the spreadsheets, paper checklists, and shared inboxes that small food manufacturers use to run production, traceability, supplier approval, and customer support — in one tenant-isolated platform.

You're running a food business on 14 spreadsheets and a shared inbox.

Information silos create invisible risks. When traceability lives in one sheet and production schedules in another, checking for ingredient contamination becomes a two-hour manual audit instead of a three-second query.

Margins leak through the cracks of manual entry. Every mistyped inventory count or missed supplier certification adds overhead that small teams can't absorb. Manual compliance slows your ability to scale.

Burnout isn't a personnel problem — it's a systems problem. Your best operators shouldn't spend 40% of the day hunting for PDFs and cross-referencing emails.

Modules

One platform. Seven modules. Turn on what you need.

Every module works on its own and shares one tenant-isolated database. No duplicate data entry, no integration tax.

Production

Schedule runs, manage filling and dough recipes, track ingredient inventory, and calculate yield from batch counts.

Breadcrumbs

FIFO lot traceability from vendor invoice through production to finished-good sale. Mass balance and recall readiness.

Vendor

FDA/FSMA supplier approval with a self-service vendor portal, hazard engine, and PCQI review workflow.

Inspections

Daily zone walks, temperature monitoring, and corrective actions — assigned, verified, and timestamped.

Training

Position-based training matrix. AI-generated courses from your SOPs, auto-translated to Spanish, Georgian, and Russian.

Helpdesk

AI-drafted replies to customer emails, enriched with Shopify order data. SLA, rules, and knowledge base built in.

Pulse

Distributor sell-through and door-level profitability from MCB reports and Rainforest remittances.

Built for the five people who actually run your facility.

Audit prep used to take three of us two full days. Now I filter by lot, export the compliance packet, and it's done before lunch.

Ops / QA Lead

I can see exactly which run is falling behind without walking the floor every hour. Recipes, ingredients, yields — one screen.

Production Scheduler

I do my inspection on the tablet in Russian. My lead reads it in English. Corrective actions show up on my phone.

Line Inspector

Every ticket comes in with the Shopify order attached and a draft reply ready. I approve, edit, or reject — I never start from zero.

Support Agent

I click a link in an email and upload our COA through a portal. No account, no training. It just works.

AI does the tedious work. You review.

We use focused Claude models for the repetitive administrative labor — not to replace your expertise.

Support auto-draft

Claude reads each customer email, classifies priority and sentiment, and drafts a reply from your knowledge base.

SOP → courses

Upload a standard operating procedure. Claude turns it into structured training with quizzes in four languages.

Hazard analysis

Claude analyzes ingredient combinations, flags compliance gaps, and suggests substitutions with citations.
