TechWizard™ Version 4 is now available (pdf format)
TechWizard  Features Brochure (pdf format)
Least Cost Formulation TechWizard™ can evaluate all ingredients in a food product and quickly come up with re-formulations that reduce cost and meet quality specifications in a matter of seconds.  View Brochure (pdf format)

Product Loss Control/ Rework TechWizard™ has a number of formulation features tailor made to reduce product losses and to aid in product rework. More
Reverse Engineering TechWizard™ has the capability to use product analyses results or a product's nutrition label and the product ingredient list to develop an equivalent formulation. More
Subscriptions Along with single-user and network license purchase options, Owl Software provides TechWizard™ subscriptions. The subscription option allows you to pay for using the program for a particular time period from 6 months up to 1 year (much like paying a monthly fee for telephone or Internet service). After receiving payment (via credit card), we provide the user with the program on CD, a manual, and a registration code that allows access to TechWizard™. You can discontinue use then start up again at a later date without losing any information.  If you decide to purchase the program you receive credit for the last year. 
Automated Examples TechWizard™ has built in automated examples to make learning how to use the program much easier. You simply select the example of interest, start it, and watch as TechWizard™ goes through the entire procedure.
Goal Oriented Formulation TechWizard™ determines how much of each ingredient to use to meet compositional, quality, and flavor goals. More
Recipe Entry & Conversion Starting from a recipe in a cookbook or a formula for a large batch of product, TechWizard™ makes it easy to enter information regardless of the source or the units. More
Formula Archiving System Formulas can be transferred from one archive file to another or shared with other TechWizard™ users. The user can have an unlimited number of formula archive files.  More
Advanced Batching TechWizard™ makes it easy to prepare a concise print out of the formulation that lists the amount of each ingredient to use plus any corresponding information and instructions.
Ingredient Database Easily edited, ingredients can also be transferred from one database file to another or shared with other TechWizard™ users. The entire USDA Food Composition database (5976 items) is also available in TechWizard™ format. More
Calculations for Dairy Products TechWizard™ allows the user to evaluate and compare a variety of properties for up to four mixes including freezing point, ice content, density, density with overrun, and density with bulky ingredients added. More
Calculations for Frozen Foods Determines the amount of the product that is frozen at a selected temperature and over a range of temperatures. More
Multiple User Accounts Set up as many user accounts as needed. Users can log onto TechWizard™ and have separate options, formula files, and ingredient files. This feature can be used to set up separate options and files for each project or client.
Business-to-Business / Electronic Commerce Facilitator Provides a means for information transfer within and between the food ingredient supplier, consultants, R&D, quality control, and food manufacturing sectors. More
