Premium Membership
Take your soap making beyond the calculator.
The SoapMetrics calculator and standard recipe analysis are always free.
SoapMetrics Premium — $5.99/month gives you a complete soap-making workspace for everything that happens before, during, and after formulation. Save recipes, manage ingredients and supplies, track batches through curing, monitor finished inventory, price recipes with Soap Cost Calculator, ask recipe-aware questions with Ask SoapMetrics, plan future recipes, troubleshoot formulations, and keep your soap-making workflow organized in one place.
Whether you make soap as a hobby, sell at local markets, or manage a growing handmade soap business, Premium helps you move from recipe idea to finished bar without relying on scattered notes, spreadsheets, calendars, and inventory lists.
Return to CalculatorEverything You Need in One Soap-Making Workspace
Personal Dashboard
Start each visit with a clear overview of what's happening in your soap-making workspace.
Your Premium dashboard gives you quick access to:
- Active batches
- Cure progress and important dates
- Inventory quantities
- Low-stock alerts
- Saved recipes
- Recent activity
- Finished-bar inventory
- Important reminders
Instead of checking multiple areas of SoapMetrics, your dashboard brings the information that matters most together in one convenient view.
Saved Recipes & Cloud Backup
Turn the recipes you create in the SoapMetrics calculator into a reusable recipe library.
Premium allows you to:
- Save recipes directly to your account
- Organize and manage your formulations
- Duplicate existing recipes for experimentation
- Make adjustments without rebuilding recipes from scratch
- Access saved recipes whenever you sign in
- Move recipes into batch production when you're ready to make them
Your formulations stay connected to the rest of your SoapMetrics workspace instead of being lost in notebooks, screenshots, or disconnected files.
Complete Batch Tracking
A recipe is only the beginning.
Premium lets you follow your soap from the original formulation through the entire production process.
Track:
- Recipe used for the batch
- Batch creation and production
- Pour dates
- Unmolding
- Cure progress
- Important batch notes
- Recipe snapshots
- Batch completion
- Finished bars added to inventory
This creates a historical record of what you actually made, not simply the recipe you originally planned.
Batch Reminders & Production Notes
Keep important production dates from slipping through the cracks.
Premium batch tools allow you to track important milestones and maintain notes throughout the life of a batch.
Use SoapMetrics to help keep track of:
- Unmolding dates
- Cure dates
- Cure checks
- Production observations
- Changes made during production
- Batch results
- General notes and reminders
Email reminders can help you stay aware of upcoming batch milestones without constantly checking your calendar.
Complete Inventory Management
Know what you have before you start your next batch.
Premium includes a centralized inventory system for tracking the materials and products involved in your soap-making workflow.
Manage:
- Oils and fats
- Lyes and other ingredients
- Fragrances and additives
- Supplies
- Molds
- Finished soap bars
- Current quantities
- Stock activity
- Low-stock items
Inventory connects naturally with other Premium tools, helping you move from ingredient planning to production and eventually to finished-bar inventory.
Quick Start Recipe Builder
Have ingredients available but aren't sure what to make next?
Quick Start helps you begin a new formulation using ingredients already available in your SoapMetrics inventory or ingredients you select manually.
Instead of starting with a completely blank calculator, Quick Start provides a faster path toward building your next recipe.
Use it to:
- Start from ingredients you already own
- Select custom ingredients
- Explore possible formulations
- Reduce unnecessary ingredient purchases
- Move quickly from inventory to recipe development
Compliance Check
Create recipes around the qualities and ingredient preferences that matter to you.
Compliance Check helps review a formulation against selected recipe preferences or ingredient-based requirements.
Examples may include:
- Vegan formulations
- Ingredient exclusions
- Selected formulation preferences
- Specialty recipe requirements
- Other ingredient-based criteria
SoapMetrics can help identify ingredients that may conflict with the preferences you select so you can review your formulation before production.
Compliance Check is a formulation-assistance tool and is not a substitute for professional legal, regulatory, certification, or labeling advice.
Soap Cost Calculator
Price a batch from the recipe you already built—without mixing this worksheet into inventory.
Soap Cost Calculator imports oils, lye, fragrance, additives, colorants, and toppings that have quantities, then lets you enter what you purchased so SoapMetrics can calculate what this recipe actually consumed.
Use it to:
- See recipe amounts imported automatically
- Enter purchased quantity, unit, and price paid
- Add optional packaging, labels, or other batch costs
- Calculate complete batch cost and invested cost per bar
- Work in USD, GBP, AUD, and other common currencies
Distilled water is excluded by default. Saved purchase prices can be reused the next time those ingredients appear in a recipe.
Ask SoapMetrics
Get recipe-aware help from SoapMetrics' soap-making AI without leaving the calculator.
Ask SoapMetrics reads the formula currently loaded—oils, lye settings, water, fragrance, and additives—and helps you think through formulation questions.
Use it to ask about:
- Why a recipe might trace quickly or stay thin
- Why a bar could remain soft
- How the oil blend may affect lather
- What you might change for a more conditioning bar
- How additives in this recipe could affect the batch
Previous chats are saved to your Premium account. You can delete old conversations from the chat list. Ask SoapMetrics does not recalculate lye or change the recipe for you.
This is AI, and AI can make mistakes. Always double-check answers against the calculator and safe soap-making practice before you weigh, mix, or sell. Read the Ask SoapMetrics page for how it works and the full disclaimer.
Community & Favorites
Soap making is better when ideas can be shared.
Premium members can participate in the SoapMetrics recipe community to discover formulations created by other makers and share recipes of their own.
Community features include:
- Share eligible recipes
- Browse community recipes
- Discover new formulation ideas
- Save recipes to your Favorites
- Keep interesting recipes organized for later
You decide which recipes you want to share while keeping your private recipes in your own workspace.
Advanced Soap Tips & Recipe Guidance
Sometimes the numbers tell you that something is unusual — but not necessarily what to do about it.
Premium recipe guidance goes beyond the standard calculator analysis by helping you better understand your formulation.
Use it to:
- Identify potential formulation concerns
- Understand unusual recipe characteristics
- Explore possible adjustments
- Troubleshoot formulation issues
- Review ingredient relationships
- Get additional soap-making guidance
- Better understand why a recipe may behave a certain way
The goal is not simply to show you numbers, but to help you understand what those numbers may mean for the soap you're planning to make.
Special Ingredient Instructions
Some ingredients change how a batch should be mixed, poured, insulated, or cured. Premium shows those notices so you can adjust your process before you start.
When a recipe includes special items such as salt, vinegar, honey, milk, clay, charcoal, fragrance oils, or similar materials, SoapMetrics can:
- Display a Special Ingredient Notifications banner on the Soap Analysis tab
- List ingredient alerts first in Soap Tips with More Info details
- Explain how the ingredient may affect heat, trace, color, or unmolding
- Place handling in Full Recipe Instructions at the correct step
- Include the same details on premium recipe and instruction PDFs
Free signed-in exports still show a general notice that special ingredients are present. The full instructions and step-by-step handling are a Premium feature.
Complete Recipe Instructions & PDF Export
Turn your formulation into a complete recipe document.
Premium allows you to generate organized recipe information that can include:
- Complete ingredient list
- Ingredient measurements
- Lye and liquid information
- Recipe totals
- Soap analysis
- Formulation details
- Important notes
- Step-by-step soap-making instructions
- Special ingredient handling placed in the correct steps
Export your recipe as a convenient PDF that you can save, print, reference during production, or keep with your production records.
Recipe Backup, Export & Import
Your recipes shouldn't be locked into a single system.
SoapMetrics Premium allows you to export recipe information in JSON format for:
- Personal backups
- Recipe archiving
- Moving recipes between devices or accounts
- Sharing recipe data
- Importing recipes back into SoapMetrics later
This gives you an additional way to maintain your own copy of important recipe data.
From Formula to Finished Bar
SoapMetrics Premium is designed around the complete soap-making workflow:
Your recipe doesn't disappear after you leave the calculator.
Premium turns it into part of an organized production system where formulations, batches, costs, inventory, reminders, records, and finished soap can stay connected.
What Stays Free?
You do not need Premium to formulate soap with SoapMetrics.
The core SoapMetrics experience remains available without a subscription, including:
- Professional soap calculator
- Recipe formulation
- Standard recipe analysis
- Soap property and formulation information
Premium is for makers who want the additional tools needed to save, organize, track, manage, and produce.
