Software for small manufacturers
Every Allenrad app is designed by a working food manufacturer: a production technician with 17+ years of making, packaging, and selling real food products. We don't guess what producers need; we build the tools we needed ourselves.
Product line
Each product covers one stage of running a small production business, from the recipe on your bench to the box on your customer's shelf.
Fast, precise unit conversion for the production floor. Weights, volumes, temperatures: the conversions you actually use when a supplier quotes in kilograms and your recipe is in ounces. No ads, no clutter.
Turn a test recipe into a production batch without a spreadsheet. FormuLab scales your formulas across any batch size, tracks cost per unit, and keeps every version documented, the way a real production record should be.
Know where every order is, from warehouse to doorstep. Role-based apps for admins, managers, and drivers, with label printing and barcode scanning built in. Designed for small distributors who've outgrown the group chat.
Approach
Scaling a recipe for a co-packer, passing a lab review, pricing a jar so it actually makes money. These aren't hypotheticals to us; they're the exact problems our software was built to solve.
No enterprise onboarding, no sales calls, no features you'll never touch. If you're a two-person operation or just filed your LLC, the tools work on day one.
In production, a rounding error becomes a failed batch. Precision in conversions, scaling, and costing is the foundation every Allenrad product is built on.
"I didn't learn manufacturing from software. I learned software because manufacturing needed it."
Allenrad Tech is founded by Allen Rad, a producer with 17+ years across food manufacturing, product development, and commercial photography, based in Fairfax, Virginia.
Before writing a line of code, Allen co-founded a meat products brand, ran production and packaging, and today operates his own food company navigating lab approvals, co-packers, and state compliance. Every Allenrad product exists because a spreadsheet, a whiteboard, or a group chat failed him first.
