Print labels that match your recipes.
The recipe card was updated in the office. The sandwich on the shelf still carries last month's ingredients.

Labels print from the recipe, not from memory.
Ingredients, allergens and dates come from the same recipe and product data your kitchen already uses. Update an ingredient once and the next label prints with the change.
Every label, from the same live data.
Allergens carried through
Allergens come from the ingredients in the recipe, so the label reflects what actually went in.
Full ingredient lists
Ingredient lists print from the recipe, with allergens drawn from the same data.
Use-by and prep dates
Dates print with the item, so nothing goes in the fridge unlabelled or guessed.
Nutrition panels
Nutrition is calculated from your product data and printed alongside the ingredients.
One template, every site
Head office sets the label templates and every site prints the same layout.
Works with your printer
Printer-agnostic, so you can start with the label printers you already have.
Change the recipe once. Every label follows.
A new ingredient goes into the recipe, the recipe is republished, and the allergen declaration updates with it. The next label printed at any site carries the change.
Ask what's in it before you answer.
Mira reads your own allergen policy, product specifications and supplier documents and answers in plain language, showing the source. If the information is not there, Mira says so rather than guessing.
Built for prepacked for direct sale.
Food made and packed on the premises before it is ordered needs a full ingredient list with allergens emphasised. Because ocapii labels print from live recipe data, the list on the pack comes from the same record as the food that went into it.
Use the printers you have
Ocapii is printer agnostic, so labels print to existing hardware rather than needing a proprietary device at every counter.

We will show you a recipe change flowing through to the label, across more than one site.

Software that prints food labels with ingredients, allergens and dates taken from your recipe and product data, rather than typed by hand each time.
No. The labels are one surface of the same operational data that runs your HACCP checks, inventory expiry alerts and corrective actions. A standalone label system needs its own product database, maintained separately by someone. Here the allergens, ingredients, nutrition and expiry dates are already in the inventory your team works to every day, captured once and reused on every label.
ocapii prints full ingredient lists with allergens from your live recipe data, which supports PPDS labelling. Making sure the recipe data is accurate, and that the label meets the rules for your products, remains your responsibility.
Update the ingredient or recipe and republish it. The allergen declaration refreshes from the recipe, and the next label printed uses the new data.
No. Nutrition is calculated from the product data you hold. It is not a laboratory analysis.
Any thermal label printer installed with its driver. ocapii sizes the print page exactly to the label in millimetres and prints through the standard print dialog, so there is no proprietary hardware, no per-printer licence and no separate label-system subscription. Continuous rolls are the default consumable (62 mm and 102 mm presets, for example a Brother DK-22205 62 mm roll), with 62 × 40 mm, 57 × 32 mm and 102 × 51 mm die-cut sizes supported out of the box and custom widths from 20 to 300 mm.
No. Every site starts with ten ready-made templates covering use-by and day-dot, allergens, ingredients and nutrition, full food-information, barcodes, asset labels and QR ordering points. The designer is there when you want something of your own, and template management is handled in the web platform.
No, and we would rather be straight about it. Use-by dates come from the product's inventory expiry record, which is the date your team already maintains. Opened and check dates are entered at the point of printing, so the judgement stays with the people who know the product.
The data on every label lives in ocapii's audited records. Because a label is generated from the product and recipe rather than typed at the printer, its allergen, ingredient and use-by claims trace back to the inventory and recipe records that produced them, with the history that sits behind those records.
ocapii supports mobile label printing through its API, using the same permissions and the same locked use-by dates as the web, with template management staying web-side. Talk to us about what your current app release supports.
Assets and ordering points as well as stock and dishes. Asset labels carry a scan payload, asset code, serial, location, category and next service date from the asset register, and QR labels encode the public ordering link for table or room stickers.
