Analogues of Sullivan Theory at a prime for coformality

In rational homotopy theory, one can study the rational homotopy and cohomology categories via an algebraic structure, respectively the rational Lie Algebra model and the Sullivan cdga model.

If I am not wrong, over a prime there is a similar theorem for $\mathbb{F}_p$ cohomology, that is Mandell's Theorem: under adequate assumptions, $\mathbb{F}_p$ cohomology together with its $E_{\infty}$ structure does a job analogous to Sullivan cdga in rational homotopy theory.

I am definitely not confident in this field, but I don't understand if $p$-homotopy groups $\mathbb{F}_p \otimes \pi_n$ (or some $p$-adic friend) are determined by Mandell's model or not, and what is the analog of the Lie model.

What I want in the end is a generalization of the notion of coformality to the $p$-adic world, which I recall: $X$ is said to be coformal if there exists a (zig-zag of) quasi-isomorphism connecting the rational homotopy groups of $\Omega X$ with the free Lie Algebra on $C^* X$.
