Free templates

The documents nobody hands you before your first run

Real files you can open in Excel, not pictures of spreadsheets. Free, and we do not ask for an email before you can see whether they are any good.

CSV

Co-packer RFQ template

A request-for-quote you can send to five manufacturers and get back five comparable answers.

CSV

Batch sheet template

The document that turns a recipe into a run, and the run into a record an auditor will accept.

CSV

COGS spreadsheet template

A cost model with the four real inputs, overage and yield included, and formulas that recalculate.

Templates get you to your first run. After that they are the problem.

A spreadsheet cannot tell you that your co-packer moved a date, and it will not recalculate your cost when sugar goes up. That is the point at which NextBatch starts earning its keep.

No card. Set up your first product in about ten minutes.
