More than compliance

Three jobs, one system

Pillar 01 · Compliance

TTB reporting that reconciles itself

Almost every rejected filing traces back to math: a proof gallon rounded wrong, a number that didn't carry between reports, or a removal that never hit the tax return. Distilling.ai removes those failure points using the proven TTBMath engine.

Automate my reporting
Copper still with gauges
PG

Proof gallon & gauging

Convert wine gallons to proof gallons with correct proof and temperature factors, handle blending and reduction, keep gauge records audit-ready.

DSP

Monthly DSP reports

Production, storage, processing, and denaturing tracked through the period and assembled into the reports the TTB requires, tied out across accounts.

$

Excise tax returns

Tax-determined removals captured as they happen, so excise tax is calculated from real activity — not a last-minute scramble.

Live rule monitoring

Federal and state requirements monitored with updates, and intelligent validation flags inconsistencies before you submit.

State and interstate compliance map

Beyond federal · State & interstate

Every state. Every line you ship across.

TTB is only the federal half. The moment you sell in your own state — or ship a bottle across a state line — you inherit a second rulebook that changes at every border: state excise tax, licensing and registration, direct-to-consumer shipping permits, volume caps, and monthly state reporting. Distilling.ai tracks all of it on the same TTBMath engine, so one removal satisfies federal, state, and destination-state rules at once.

Cover all my states
ST

State excise tax

Calculate and file state excise and gallonage taxes for every state you operate or sell in, each with its own rates, brackets, and due dates — handled automatically.

LIC

State licensing & registration

Track state distillery licenses, brand/label registrations, and renewals so nothing lapses and no market closes on you unexpectedly.

DTC

Interstate DTC shipping

Know exactly which states you can ship spirits to, under what permit, and at what volume — with rules kept current as states change their laws.

3T

Three-tier & distributor reporting

Reconcile what you ship to distributors with state-required reports, and keep franchise and territory obligations straight across markets.

Per-state monthly reports

Generate the recurring state reports each jurisdiction demands, populated from the same activity that drives your federal filings.

Live multi-state rule monitoring

Federal and state requirements are monitored together, with validation that flags a problem before it reaches a regulator in any state.

Talk to our consultants

Pillar 03 · Consulting

From concept to shelf, with people who've done it

Software handles the repeatable work; some decisions need an expert. The TTBMath consulting team helps you launch and grow a distillery — with the platform wired in from day one.

Licensing & startup

Stand up your Distilled Spirits Plant the right way — permits, bonds, premises, and the federal paperwork that gates production.

Production management

Set up operations and recordkeeping so compliance is a byproduct of how you run, not a separate chore.

Labeling & formulas

Get formulas and labels structured for approval, aligned with what you actually produce and sell.

Distribution & sales

Build a route to market — distributor strategy, DTC, and the three-tier rules that shape both.

Financial planning

Plan heavy upfront costs, track ongoing expenses, and protect cash flow against delayed distributor payments.

Retail & brand

Shape a retail environment and brand identity that move bottles — backed by analytics that prove what works.

How it fits together

One record, every job

Record an operation once and it flows everywhere it's needed.

Record

Log production, gauges, transfers, removals, and sales — or import them — in distillery-native terms.

Reconcile

The TTBMath engine runs proof-gallon math, tax determination, and cross-form reconciliation automatically.

Sell

The same inventory powers your POS, online store, and CRM — no double entry, no drift.

File & grow

Generate TTB-ready reports and tax figures, then use the analytics to sell more next month.

Questions

Distillery platform FAQ

Is this only for TTB compliance?

No. Compliance is one of three pillars. Distilling.ai also gives you sales tools (POS, e-commerce, CRM, analytics) and consulting (licensing, production, distribution, financial planning) — all on the TTBMath platform.

How does the proof-gallon math work?

It converts wine gallons to proof gallons using proof and temperature, applies the correct factors, and carries results into your production and tax figures automatically.

Do you handle state and interstate compliance too?

Yes. Alongside federal TTB filings, the platform tracks state excise tax, state licensing and brand registration, and interstate direct-to-consumer shipping rules — so a single removal satisfies federal, your home state, and the destination state at once. See TTBMath.com.

Can I sell online and in person?

Yes. The built-in POS handles in-person sales while the e-commerce storefront handles DTC orders, both drawing on the same inventory that feeds your TTB reports.

Do you help new distilleries get licensed?

Yes. The consulting team supports licensing and startup for a Distilled Spirits Plant. Learn more at TTBMath.com.

Is Distilling.ai the same company as TTBMath?

Yes. Distilling.ai is the distillery-focused arm of TTBMath, which also runs Vinery.ai and Brewmaster.ai.
