Why meat processors choose Cleavr
Cleavr is meat processing workflow software built to connect orders, production, traceability, billing, and customer communication from intake to invoice.

Instead of jumping between spreadsheets and isolated systems, see how your plant operates when Cleavr connects the workflow.
Before
- Separate tools for orders, fabrication, and billing
- Manual entry at the end of a step
- Guesswork on order status
- Hand-offs by phone or hallway
- Frequent label errors and reprints
- Cutting and packing mistakes eat into margins
- Training that takes weeks
- Customers call for updates
- Bottlenecks discovered too late
After
- Unified workflows in one connected platform
- Data captured instantly with each scan
- Real-time visibility across every stage
- Auto-routed tasks with clear ownership
- Auto-generated, traceable labels
- Verification reduces errors
- Step-by-step guidance on screen
- Live status and proof of results
- Alerts surface issues before they stall production
Meat processing workflow software built for the way you work
Cleavr brings each part of production into one connected workflow. From scheduling and scanning to traceability, billing, and customer updates, teams can see what is happening and what needs to happen next.
Connected workflows
Your entire operation, linked and live
Cleavr tracks work as it happens. As a result, every carcass, cut, and box stays connected through scan-based data and role-aware screens. Meanwhile, each department can see what comes next, so fewer steps get lost in translation.
Key benefits
Species-specific handling – Tailored workflows for beef, pork, and wild game.
Smart scheduling – Tasks queue automatically based on workload and completion time.
Instant traceability – Every scan builds your compliance record automatically.
Real-time coordination – Alerts, priorities, and progress update across the entire floor.
For example, if you’re preparing for deer season, use our wild game processor pre-season checklist to identify workflow gaps before opening weekend.
Mobile operations
Built for the floor, not just the office
Because work moves fast, Cleavr moves with it. That means the same clean interface works across tablets, phones, and desktops, so anyone can log in, scan, and keep production moving without special setup or lengthy training.
Key benefits
Runs smoothly on any connected device
Offline capture and automatic resync
Glove-friendly layouts and clear prompts
Simple navigation for quick onboarding
Accuracy and compliance
Accuracy by design
Each scan tells the story of your product from tag to box. Along the way, Cleavr captures IDs, weights, temperatures, and handlers as work happens. As a result, teams rely less on manual logs and reduce missed entries.
Key benefits
- Automated record-keeping for audits
- Traceable from carcass to shipment
- Reduce duplicate entry and keep records connected

Customer transparency
Clarity that builds trust
Customers can see their orders progress, view yields and packaging details, and receive accurate invoices. As a result, processors can reduce back-and-forth while giving customers clearer proof of what they are paying for.
Key benefits
Live order tracking for customers
Automated billing based on verified data
Instant proof of results and packaging details
Results in action
A clearer process from intake to pickup
With order details, production progress, and payment information connected, your team can:
- Scan to find animal and customer order details without searching through paper files.
- Keep cuts, packages, and boxes tied to the correct order.
- See which orders are in progress and where finished boxes are stored.
- Review invoices, payments, and remaining balances before pickup.
What to look for in custom meat processing software
Not every meat processing plant operates the same way. Before choosing software, look beyond the feature list and consider how each system supports the work your team does every day.
Intake and customer orders
Look for a system that connects animal identification, customer information, species-specific cut instructions, and customer approvals.
Production and traceability
Evaluate how the software tracks products through fabrication, packaging, and boxing. Staff should be able to identify which order a product belongs to and what needs to happen next.
Inventory and pickup
Consider how finished boxes are identified, assigned freezer locations, and tracked until the customer collects the order.
Billing and payments
Understand how the system handles processing charges, finished weights, invoices, payment collection, and accounting. Ask which capabilities are included and which require additional modules.
Plant-floor usability
Consider how employees interact with the system throughout production. Review device requirements, scanning workflows, training, and compatibility with your existing equipment.
Pricing and implementation
Compare the complete cost of the software, including onboarding, user limits, additional modules, and support. Make sure the plan fits your plant’s volume and processing needs.
The goal is to choose software that connects the work happening across your plant instead of creating another system your staff must manage.
