From flour to finished loaf — every lot traced

Truzzel replaces paper batch sheets, manual lot tracking, and filing cabinets with AI phone capture and automatic traceability. Built for artisan and commercial bakeries that supply hotels, restaurants, and retail.

Paper works until the auditor arrives

Most bakeries run on paper batch sheets, handwritten lot codes, and filing cabinets full of COAs. It works day to day — until an Avendra audit, SQF inspection, or recall event exposes the gaps.

Short shelf life means rotation matters. High-volume production means traceability gaps multiply fast. Multiple deliveries per week from multiple suppliers means paperwork piles up.

Common bakery pain points
Paper batch sheets — lot codes written by hand, filed in binders, impossible to search
No ingredient-to-loaf linking — you know you bought flour and sold bread, but can't prove which flour went into which loaf
Lost COAs — certificates of analysis arrive on paper, get separated from the lot, and can't be found during audits
Recall panic — tracing a lot takes days of digging through paper, not the 2 minutes auditors expect
FIFO failures — older flour sits behind newer deliveries because rotation depends on memory
Recipe cost drift — ingredient prices change but nobody updates the batch cost until margins are already gone

Every gap closed. Automatically.

Truzzel replaces every paper process with a phone capture. Your team snaps photos instead of writing. AI reads instead of typing. Links form instead of filing. The result is a fully traceable, audit-ready operation.

How Truzzel solves it
AI Vision Capture — snap the supplier label at the dock. AI reads lot, item, qty, expiration, and temp from the BOL. No typing.
Automatic lot linking — snap ingredient labels as you pull them for a batch. AI links every lot to the production record.
COA extraction — snap or upload the COA. AI parses test results and links them to the lot. Searchable forever.
Recall in under 2 minutes — enter a lot code, get a complete affected-customer report. Batches, shipments, inventory — all traced.
FIFO/FEFO enforcement — Truzzel tells your team which lot to pull first. Scan to confirm. Wrong lot? Flagged.
Real-time recipe costing — actual ingredient costs per batch calculated automatically. Variance visible immediately.
We built Truzzel inside a working bakery.

See How It Works

Built for how bakeries actually work

From sourdough starters to hotel standing orders. Every bakery workflow covered.

AI phone capture at the dock

Snap supplier labels from US Foods, Dawn Foods, local flour mills. AI reads lot codes, quantities, and expiration dates from any label format.

Recipe management with versioning

Define sourdough, rolls, muffin batters, pastry formulas. Version control tracks every change. Auditors see which version produced which batch.

Flour-to-loaf traceability

Every bag of flour traced to every batch of bread traced to every hotel that received it. Forward and backward, in seconds.

Short shelf-life management

Bread has hours, not weeks. FEFO enforcement ensures oldest product ships first. Expiration alerts trigger before waste happens.

Hotel standing orders

Hilton gets 50 sourdough every Tuesday and Friday. Truzzel auto-generates the order, plans production, and tracks delivery.

SQF & Avendra audit ready

Real-time compliance scoring. Document coverage, quality tests, and traceability gaps surfaced daily — not discovered during the audit.

Delivery route management

Plan DFW routes, assign drivers, track deliveries. Driver mobile view with maps navigation and delivery confirmation at each stop.

Case labeling with QR codes

Truzzel generates labels with lot codes and QR codes for every case. Snap to verify the label matches the batch. Print on your existing printer.

Batch cost tracking

Actual cost per loaf calculated from real ingredient lots used. Recipe expected vs actual comparison shows variance instantly. Protect your margins.

Replace paper batch sheets with proof.
