Craft beverage ops, redefined
CaskOps is an AI operations agent built for craft beverage producers. It monitors fermentation, manages distribution, handles compliance, and tracks inventory — 24/7, without a single extra hour of your time.
You got into this to make cider. Not to spend Tuesday nights updating spreadsheets, chasing distributor PO numbers, or building compliance reports from scratch.
CaskOps closes the gap between running a production cidery and actually having time to run it.
How it works
CaskOps integrates with your existing tools — tank sensors, inventory systems, distributor portals, TTB reporting. Takes a few hours, not a few weeks.
It builds a model of your production schedules, distributor relationships, compliance deadlines, and seasonal patterns. The more it runs, the sharper it gets.
Alerts go out when fermentation needs attention. Orders update automatically. Compliance reports are ready before the deadline. You get daily summaries. No surprises.
What CaskOps handles
Tracks batch progress, predicts completion dates, and alerts your team when a fermentation stalls, finishes, or needs a decision. Replaces manual gravity checks with continuous visibility.
Tracks ingredients, packaging materials, and finished goods across taproom, distro, and events. Auto-generates purchase orders when stock drops below threshold. Syncs with your production calendar.
Manages distributor relationships end-to-end: PO tracking, fulfillment status, account communication, and reorder timing. Knows which accounts are hot and which are going quiet before it hurts.
Generates required reports — excise tax, production logs, reports of bulk operations — and flags deadlines before they become problems. Audit-ready documentation, always current.
Knows your production costs per batch, tank utilization rates, distributor performance, and taproom pull-through. Updated daily. No manual spreadsheet maintenance required.
Not just notifications — actionable recommendations. "Distributor B hasn't ordered in 6 weeks — recommend outreach or reassign territory." "Tank 3 will free up Thursday — schedule next packaging run."
You've got an MBA, a sensory palate, and 7 years of fermentation science. You shouldn't be spending your evenings manually logging batch numbers into a Google Sheet.
CaskOps was built by someone who lived it. Every workflow, every alert, every report — designed to give you back the time you actually want to spend making cider.
