PlantPulse turns complex multi-stage batch chains into a calm, readable wallboard. Built for fermentation — propagators, pre-fermenters, fermenters — and the teams who run them around the clock.
Why PlantPulse exists
Fermentation runs span multiple days and overlap across vessels — from flask inoculum through pre-seed and seed stages to the main fermenter — with shift ownership, checkpoints, and documentation requirements. Managing this in Excel macros and PowerPoint slides create invisible risk.
PlantPulse was born directly from a real legacy VBA system used at a fermentation facility — same data model, same vessel hierarchy, same shift rotation logic — rebuilt as a browser-native tool that anyone on the team can open.
Who it's for
Needs to see exactly what is running right now, which team owns each vessel, and what checkpoint tasks are pending — at a glance, from across the room.
View Wallboard →Needs to create and adjust multi-stage fermentation chains, resolve vessel conflicts, and shift schedules without breaking downstream batches.
Open Planner →Needs a clean monthly schedule view, export-ready for review meetings, with no surprise overlaps or shutdown conflicts.
View Schedule →Three views, one system
Live manufacturing display with shift bands, batch timeline, team assignments, and now-line. Designed for a TV screen at the end of the production floor.
Open Wallboard →Interactive timeline for creating batch chains, editing stages, bulk time-shifting, and managing vessel assignments across your entire seed train.
Open Planner →Month-at-a-glance view filtered by equipment group. Export to PDF for printable plans and review meetings.
Open Schedule →How it models your process
PlantPulse understands that fermentation is a chain — each stage feeds into the next, with different vessels, durations, and team handoffs at every step. Auto-scheduling back-calculates the entire chain from your target production start.
Vessel assignments, durations, and stage counts are fully configurable. Preloaded demo configuration with multiple products and production lines.
