PigOS is a herd management app for commercial swine operations. Record what happens in the barn as it happens, and see how it moves your production numbers. RECORD IN THE BARN • Mating, farrowing, weaning, piglet transfers, health treatments and removals • Scan an ear tag with the camera, or dictate a note by voice • Entries are saved on the device and sync automatically when you are back online KNOW YOUR HERD • Every sow with parity, breed, entry date and current status • Breeding cycle timeline per sow — mating, farrowing, weaning, return • Boars, piglet groups and grow-finish groups in one place SEE THE NUMBERS THAT MATTER • PSY, NPD, farrowing rate and active sow count on one dashboard • Alerts when a KPI moves away from your target • Overdue weanings and cull candidates surfaced before they cost you • Compare your farm against national averages and the top 25% REPORTS AND EXPORT • Reproduction, production summary, farrowing, mortality and grow-finish reports • Export any report as CSV to share by email or open in a spreadsheet ASK PIGOS AI • Ask why a number changed and get an answer grounded in your own farm data, with the reasoning behind it BUILT FOR TEAMS • Multiple farms under one organization, with owner / manager / worker roles • Each farm's data stays isolated PigOS requires an account. Farm records are stored on our servers so your team sees the same data. You can delete your account and all of its data at any time from Settings.
