The AI-native winery operating system
Great software,
from good stock.
Production, DTC, compliance and accounting in one platform, one data model, one price — from grape cost to bottle to customer to the general ledger.
The honest part
You can't fix the market. You can decide whether you survive it.
US wine is in a structural decline — consumption at a 90-year low, no forecast bottom until 2027–28. No software reverses that. But in a shrinking market, survival is decided by three things you can control: inventory discipline, true per-SKU margin, and defending the club funnel. That's what cepavo is for.

The integration tax, gone.
A premium winery runs five or six disconnected vendors — a production ERP, a DTC platform, a compliance tool, QuickBooks, a spreadsheet holding it together. cepavo is one system where a gallon entered once at the weigh-tag carries its cost, tax class and lineage all the way to the club order and the ledger entry.
Grape-to-glass traceability is the spine
Every module reads from and posts to one append-only production ledger and one double-entry general ledger. No exports, no reconciliation, no "which number is right?"
Vineyard & cellar
Blocks, spray REI/PHI guards, work orders, barrels, lab, blend trials — the physical winery, costed as it happens.
Native compliance
TTB 5120.17 & CDTFA derived from the removal ledger, COLA registry, 50-state DTC limits. Auto-drafted, hash-sealed.
DTC, club & tasting room
Allocations, wine club, dunning, POS and a customer 360 — the funnel that is 72% of DTC, instrumented.
Wholesale & three-tier
FOB order-to-cash, distributor depletions and inventory reconciliation, tied-house sample caps — the wholesale channel with real numbers behind it.
Finance & true COGS
WIP costing, per-SKU landed cost, GL, AR/AP, bank rec, board pack. Your accountant sees the same data your cellar master enters.
A look at the actual product
Your winery at a glance.
The home screen you'd open every morning: the numbers that decide the month up top, then one tap into any part of the estate. A product preview with illustrative figures from a seeded estate — not a live winery's data.
One platform, every module.
Production, DTC, compliance & accounting — one login, one data model, one tap away.
Questions no siloed stack can answer.
When production, sales and accounting live in different vendors, the most important questions have no home. cepavo answers them because it's all one graph.
The one number siloed software loses
One thread, from vine to ledger.
Watch a single harvest carry its true cost all the way to the general ledger — as you scroll.
Agentic operations on a foundation the incumbents don't have.
Every winery vendor added a chatbot in 2025. They sit on a single silo of data. cepavo's intelligence works because it reads the whole unified graph — and it proposes, you confirm. It never writes to your ledger on its own.
Cellar Conscience
A morning brief that sweeps QC holds, overdue toppings, work orders and material shortages into a ranked "what needs you today."
Self-filing month-end
TTB and CDTFA derived off the removal ledger, anomalies flagged, a hash-sealed audit binder chained to the period close.
Depletion Whisperer
Per distributor & SKU, a ranked reactivate / follow-up / restock call list from real pull-through.
Estate Sommelier
Recommendations constrained to what's actually allocatable and in stock — never a phantom upsell.
Vintage Twin
A read-only digital twin to simulate blends and pricing with zero writes to the real ledger.
Moving off WineDirect? Get your data out — and your filings covered.
The WineDirect platform sunsets December 31, 2026. Thousands of wineries are being force-migrated and re-evaluating their whole stack at once.
Our done-for-you data-rescue & compliance retainer lifts your production, DTC, club and accounting history off the old platform and onto one data model — mapped, reconciled and checked against the source. Then we keep your TTB and CDTFA filings current while your team settles in.
A real migration on a realistic timeline — scoped up front, fixed fee, your numbers verified before go-live. No "done in a day" promises.
cepavo automates the preparation and filing of TTB and state (e.g. CDTFA) reports, but you remain the licensed party responsible for the accuracy and timeliness of every filing. We support your compliance — we don't replace your legal responsibility for it.
Free for the trade
The 2026–27 TTB & CDTFA deadline calendar.
Every federal excise and California return, report and payment due date for the coming year — the semi-monthly and quarterly TTB windows, CDTFA filing dates and the DTC renewal season — on one printable estate calendar. Built by the team that automates these filings inside cepavo.
The calendar is an informational reference, not tax or legal advice; dates can change and you remain responsible for confirming your own obligations with the TTB and your state authorities.
