A year on the ranch
The work doesn’t stop. Neither do the questions.
From the fall sale through calving, RanchOS keeps the record so you don’t have to keep it in your head — or in a notebook on the dash. Here are four times of year it earns its keep.
Who’s open, who’s bred, and what’s she worth before the sale?
Preg-check day and weaning set up the whole winter. Log open vs bred, keep pairs straight, and walk into the sale barn already knowing your number — not guessing from a notebook on the dash.
Did I already give her this shot — and is she still in withdrawal?
Branding morning moves fast. Treatments, vaccines, and a withdrawal clock get logged as the animals come through the chute. Know what’s still in withdrawal before she leaves the yard — no double doses, no guessing for the brand inspector.
What did this animal cost me, and did I make money on the sale?
Money in, money out — in plain English, no accounting degree. Costs follow each animal from purchase through feed, health, and breeding, so when you load the trailer you already know your number.
Which cows do I need to keep an eye on when the heifers start?
When calving kicks off, you want the list in your pocket — who is due, who is close, who had trouble last year. Log the calf the minute it hits the ground and the pair is on the books before you walk back to the truck.
Walk into the sale barn knowing your number. Walk into the pasture knowing your animals. Walk into the season knowing your ranch.
One system. From the gate to the books.
Built for Real Ranch Work
RanchOS was built by a working ranch operator who got tired of spreadsheets, whiteboards, and software that clearly never saw a dirt road. Every feature exists because it solved a real problem on a real ranch.
Preg check day, branding, fall vaccinations, sorting pairs, moving cattle to summer pasture — these are the jobs RanchOS was built around. Not theoretical use cases. Actual ranch work, tested in actual mud.
- Built around chute-side work, not office work
- Offline-first because ranch work doesn't wait for signal
- Withdrawal period tracking because compliance matters
- Simple enough to use with gloves on
Built by Ranchers
Alamosa, Colorado
Whole crew. One ranch. Gloves on.
Owner, spouse, and hands can share the same ranch books — on their own phones or a shared device in the truck. Permissions keep the office work where it belongs; chute-side logging stays simple enough with gloves on.
- Multi-user ranch accounts with roles you control
- Offline on the shared phone — catches up when you're back in range
- One set of records for the brand inspector, the banker, and the crew
Field note
Ranch software that only works for the person at the desk doesn't help at the chute. RanchOS is built so the person with muddy boots can log the shot — and the person back at the house still sees it.
One system for every kind of stock
RanchOS tracks cattle, goats, sheep, bison, horses, pigs, elk, and deer — all in one account, each with its own health and breeding records.
