To "sounds like your team"
Grounded on your SOPs
The thesis

Documentation is the job. So we built the workforce for it.

Every mid-market food brand runs on PDFs, spreadsheets, email threads, and one overworked QA or regulatory lead. Enterprise platforms (TraceGains, SafetyChain, FoodLogiQ) are six-month implementations at $50K–$250K. Database tools (Genesis, ESHA) are built for a human formulator. Neither sells the thing a Director of Quality at a $40M brand actually wants — a senior regulatory professional, on call, at FTE-fraction pricing.

F&B Codex doesn't sell modules — we sell roles. Each agent has a job description, a price, an eval suite, and a portfolio of work product. Each one is grounded on your SOPs and your specs from day one. The moat isn't the model — it's everything we ingest about how your company actually works.
The roster

Three agents. One tightly integrated team.

Shipping in priority order. Codex Reg is live; Codex Quality starts build once Codex Reg has five paying pilots; Codex R&D follows once Codex Quality is in build. One agent at a time — each has to earn its place before we move on to the next.

The moat

Why a generic AI tool can't catch up.

Every food company operates differently. The work is bound by internal SOPs, house spec templates, release criteria, brand voice, and a hundred small conventions that aren't written down anywhere. Generic AI doesn't know your company. F&B Codex does.

01 — Grounding

Trained on your SOPs

Your SOPs, spec templates, release criteria, brand voice, and supplier history get ingested into a per-tenant knowledge base on day one. Your SOPs become the agent's citation source and its guardrails.

02 — Isolation

Yours alone, forever

Per-tenant directories. Per-tenant retrieval. Your content is never used to train a shared model and never appears in another customer's output, even when both source from the same supplier.

03 — Switching cost

Compounds month over month

After 30 days, the agent sounds like a member of your team. After 6 months, it carries institutional memory most of your team doesn't. Leaving means starting that over. That's the switching cost we build.

One review cycle. One $40K-saving finding.

Case study · June 2026 · Codex Reg

Codex Reg vs. a launching ancient-grain snack brand.

Brand X — under $10M revenue, gluten-free claim across two SKU concepts, 10-state Year-1 launch plan. Codex Reg surfaced a 21 CFR §101.91 gluten-free / barley conflict embedded in the brand's own strategic plan — plus three unsupportable marketing claims and a California Prop 65 work plan — in one review cycle.

How it works

From "let's talk" to shipped, cited, signed in 14 days.

No procurement. No six-month implementation. No SOC2 questionnaire blocking the kickoff. One scoping call, one one-page agreement, three sample artifacts — and Codex Reg is reviewing your real work.

Day 0 – 3

The 30-minute scoping call.

Pick one workflow. Send three sample artifacts (a label, a claim, a state list). One named pilot owner on your side. You leave with a fixed scope, a fixed price, and a draft pilot agreement landing by end of next business day.

Day 3 – 7

The one-page agreement.

90 days. $1,500/mo. Mutual NDA. Per-tenant data isolation. Liability cap. Exit clause. Six promises in plain English. You can read it in five minutes; outside counsel can review it in twenty.

Day 7 – 10

Grounded on your SOPs.

We ingest your SOPs, spec templates, release criteria, and brand voice into your per-tenant KB. This is the part that makes the agent yours. The grounding stays per-tenant, never crosses customer boundaries, and compounds every week you keep us.

Day 10 – 14 (and weekly thereafter)

Reviews land.

Submit a task. Within one business day, three artifacts arrive: a human-readable report, a structured findings JSON, and a signed audit footer. Every BLOCKER and every claim rewrite is gated on a named human checkpoint in your workflow.
