What growing producers are up against.
Built for mock recall software.
Drill against any lot
Start a mock recall on any lot and see the full computed impact - the same scoping a real investigation uses.
No effect on live inventory
A drill previews impact and documents the exercise without holding or changing real inventory.
Timed, repeatable practice
Run drills monthly so recall readiness is a habit, and every run is on the record to show buyers and auditors.
Readiness scoring
An earned readiness score reflects how complete your traceability is, so gaps surface before a real recall does.
One connected chain, receiving to shipment.
Log each incoming supplier lot with quantity, expiration, and COA status - the lot lands in quarantine until it's inspected and approved.
Start a batch and consume exact approved lots. LotThread blocks anything on hold, expired, or short before it enters production.
Turn a completed batch into finished lots with traceable lot numbers, quantities, label versions, and best-by dates.
Track remaining quantity, location, expiry, and hold/release state so you always know what's clear to ship.
Record customer shipments with the same guardrails, closing the chain from supplier lot to the customer who received it.
Outcomes producers feel right away.
Questions about mock recall software.
Does a mock recall touch my real inventory?
No. A mock recall drill previews the full impact and documents the exercise, but it doesn't place holds or change live inventory - so you can practice as often as you like.
Can I show a completed mock recall to an auditor?
Yes. Each drill and its status are recorded, and the underlying trace history is available as a print-ready report or CSV export for review.
Do I have to replace my accounting or ecommerce tools?
No. LotThread is the traceability layer that sits alongside QuickBooks, Shopify, and the tools you already use - it connects your materials, batches, and shipments into one record without replacing your books or storefront.
How long does it take to trace my first product?
Most producers trace a first product in an afternoon. You set up one product, one supplier, and one production batch, and the genealogy and recall scoping compute from there - no manufacturing ERP rollout required.
Can I import existing lots from a spreadsheet?
Yes. Map your columns once and bulk-import materials, suppliers, and existing lots from a spreadsheet or supplier file, so you start with your real history instead of a blank system.
