Breeders are still using spreadsheets in 2026 ā built something better
Hey PH community š
I'm Mike, solo founder building BreedTools ā breeding management software for dog breeders.
The problem: serious breeders are still tracking weights, vaccines, heat cycles, and buyer waitlists in spreadsheets or Facebook groups. The one real app alternative (Breedera) is iOS-only and feels like it was built in 2015.
What BreedTools does differently:
ā¢ PWA ā works on any device, no app store needed
ā¢ Free tier that's actually useful (not crippled)
ā¢ Public puppy pages buyers can actually see
ā¢ Built-in buyer pipeline, e-sign contracts, COI calculator
ā¢ 289 breed-specific growth curves
6 real breeders using it now. Launching here in 18 hours.
Two questions for the community:
1. Do you know any dog breeders who might find this useful?
2. What would make you trust a new tool enough to switch from spreadsheets?
Happy to answer anything ā or just come back tomorrow and upvote if it looks useful! š
