How does the free trial work?: Sign up for any plan and get full access to every feature for 14 days—no credit card required.

What is food traceability software?: Food traceability software records where every ingredient came from and where every finished product went. Stocksmith captures supplier lot numbers on each purchase, links them to the batches they're used in, and ties those batches to customer orders—giving you a complete, audit-ready trail from raw ingredient to sale.
How does food traceability software help during a recall?: If a supplier recalls an ingredient or you find a quality issue, Stocksmith lets you search a lot number and instantly see every batch, product, and order it touched. Instead of digging through spreadsheets for days, you can act on a recall in minutes and notify only the customers affected.
Can I track ingredient lots and expiry dates together?: Yes. Stocksmith tracks lot numbers and expiry dates on both raw ingredients and finished products. You can see which lots are expiring soon, use first-in-first-out to cut waste, and automatically carry expiry information through to the products you make from them.
