TraceLot is a batch and lot tracking system built for businesses selling perishable goods. It solves a real, painful problem: products with expiry dates reaching customers when they shouldn't, compliance gaps during audits, and inventory write-offs from poor expiration forecasting.

The Problem

Businesses selling food, supplements, cosmetics, and other products with shelf life face constant challenges:

• Expired products accidentally shipped to customers
• Hours of manual spreadsheet reconciliation every week
• FDA and compliance audits requiring lot-level traceability
• Significant losses from inventory that expires before it sells
• No visibility into which batches are at risk

Most inventory systems don't handle batch-level tracking well. TraceLot fills that gap.

What TraceLot Does

The platform automates everything around batch and expiry management:

• Batch splitting with lot numbers and expiry dates
• FEFO (First-Expired-First-Out) allocation — earliest-expiring stock ships first
• Automated holds that remove expired quantities from available inventory
• Daily alerts forecasting at-risk inventory across 10, 30, 60, and 90 day windows
• Complete audit trails showing which batch shipped to which customer
• Multi-warehouse support with independent batch tracking
• Repackaging functionality that maintains traceability from bulk to individual units
