Cattle software is bloated because it's built for everyone. FatVaca is built for one job: buying cattle, putting weight on them, selling them, and settling up with the investors who paid for them. No dairy modules. No features you'll never open.
Every screen here exists because you use it on a normal week: the animal came in, it gained weight, it went out, somebody got paid.
Every weigh-in feeds the herd overview. It picks out the animals that need a hand and ranks the ones doing best and worst, so the morning starts with a list instead of a hunch.
Upload the Excel or CSV file you already have, match its columns, and check every row. Nothing is added to the herd until you say so.
A purchase order is one load bought from a vendor; a sales order is one load sold to a customer. Each head costs and sells at its order's per-head average, so the books match the paperwork.
Set the investor profit share and the care fee once. When a sale closes, FatVaca works out who is owed what — and shows the arithmetic, so nobody has to take it on trust.
Type it the way you would say it. The assistant reads this farm's own records — weigh-ins, lots, orders and settlements — and answers in your language.
Owners run the farm, managers keep the books, workers record weigh-ins, and viewers look without touching.
Each farm is its own world — its own herd, money and people. Switch between them in one click; one payment covers them all.
Every screen, email, invoice and report comes in both, and each member picks their own. Money stays in dollars either way.
Open an ear tag to see its weight chart, the gain since its last weigh-in, its lot, its notes and whether it is sick.
Who you buy from and who you sell to, each with every order they have been part of.
A one-minute tour and a getting-started checklist walk a new farm through its first lots, purchase order and animals.
Name it, then set the weigh-in interval, the investor profit share and the care fee. Two minutes.
Log the purchase order and receive the animals onto it — one at a time, or the whole load from a spreadsheet.
Record weigh-ins as you work the chute. The herd overview shows who is overdue, who is slipping and who has outgrown their lot.
Put finished animals on a sales order, hand over the invoice, and let every investor settle on their own.
One price, one plan, no per-head fee and no renewal. Two weeks free first — no card to start.
Covers every farm you run, and everyone you invite to them.
Pay the $99 when the trial ends, or walk away.
The modules that make the other guys expensive.
The short answers. The trial is free, so the long answer is to try it on your own herd.
Your farms pause until you pay $99 once. Nothing is deleted: every animal, weigh-in and order is waiting when you come back.
No. One payment covers every farm you own. The managers, workers, viewers and investors you invite never pay.
Only if you want them to. Link an investor to their login and every figure they see — the herd and the money — is theirs alone.
No. Upload the Excel or CSV file you already keep, match its columns, and review every row before anything is added. Up to 2,000 rows a file, in kilograms or pounds.
Yes. Every screen, email, invoice and report comes in English and Spanish, and each member picks their own. Money stays in US dollars in both.
No. FatVaca runs in the browser — on a laptop, a tablet, or the phone in your pocket at the chute.
Two weeks free, then $99 once. No card, no setup call — and if your herd lives in a spreadsheet, bring the spreadsheet.
