Batch tracking and tax compliance software for small-scale cut tobacco operations
SnuffMill OS is an early-stage prototype for managing tobacco production workflows — specifically blending, moisture adjustment, and tin-packaging — alongside the regulatory paperwork those steps generate. It's built with small snuff mills in mind: operations that are currently running compliance out of spreadsheets and doing it the hard way.
- Track cut tobacco batches through blending, moisture adjustment, and packaging stages
- Apply moisture-corrected weight calculations before a batch is finalized, so tax figures reflect dry weight rather than wet leaf
- Auto-generate ATF Form 5000.24 from batch data
- Generate state excise tax submissions from the same underlying records
- Log batch history with per-stage records for audit purposes
- Floor-level moisture sensors (planned interface; sensor protocol not yet finalized)
This is a single-application prototype — no distributed services or external database infrastructure is wired up yet. The core logic centers on a batch data model that carries weight and moisture readings through each production stage and feeds a form-generation layer at the end. The codebase is structured to keep compliance output close to the production data that drives it.
🧪 Early prototype / concept. Not production-ready.
Built to solve a real problem at one specific operation. The regulatory forms and moisture-correction logic reflect genuine requirements, but the software has not been validated against ATF or state agency submission systems.
