For small to mid-sized food and beverage manufacturers, supplier management and compliance is a time-consuming process. While enterprise software like TraceGains offers robust tools, it is often too expensive, too complex, and overloaded with features that small and mid-sized manufacturers don’t need.
That’s why we built Bruce.ai, your AI assistant designed specifically for small to mid-sized manufacturers who need a hassle-free solution that handles compliance tasks without the enterprise cost or complexity.
Why Enterprise Software Falls Short
Many manufacturers turn to enterprise solutions like TraceGains, only to find that they come with:
High Costs & Overpaying for Unused Features – Enterprise software often requires six-figure contracts and includes hundreds of features that small manufacturers don’t need but still have to pay for
Complex Setup & Lengthy Implementation – These platforms demand IT resources and extensive training, delaying adoption and taking months to fully implement, disrupting daily operations
Difficult to Use & Still Requires Manual Work – Despite AI integration, many solutions still rely heavily on manual tasks and oversight, making them more time-consuming than efficient for small teams
For small to mid-sized manufacturers, these challenges create more frustration than efficiency, leading many to either overpay for unnecessary features or abandon the software altogether.
How Bruce.ai Can Help?
Unlike TraceGains and other enterprise solutions, Bruce.ai is affordable, easy to set up, and requires no complex training or IT support. Here’s how it makes compliance simple, efficient, and cost-effective:
