AI Compliance Infrastructure
Scale your QA capabilities without increasing headcount.
Continuous data collection, intelligent reasoning, and compliance workflow automation for F&B manufacturers.
The Problem
Traditional compliance is broken
Food & beverage manufacturers face a compliance system that was never designed for the complexity of modern operations.
Fragmented tools
Your QMS doesn't talk to your MES. Your MES doesn't connect to your supplier docs. There's no single source of truth — just scattered systems and manual workarounds.
Manual evidence collection
QA teams spend 60–70% of their time gathering data, chasing signatures, and preparing documentation — not actually improving quality.
Enormous cost
Compliance costs the food industry $75B per year. In 2024 alone, recalls totaled $1.92B. The current model is unsustainable.

No. Certen is designed to work alongside your existing systems — not replace them. We integrate with your QMS, MES, ERP, and other tools to create a unified compliance layer on top. Think of us as the intelligence layer that connects everything together.
Most customers are up and running within 2–4 weeks. We handle the heavy lifting of system integration and data mapping. Your team doesn't need to change their existing workflows — Certen adapts to how you already work.
Certen supports all major GFSI-benchmarked certification schemes including SQF, BRC, FSSC 22000, and IFS. We also support FDA FSMA compliance (including the upcoming Rule 204 traceability requirements), HACCP, and GMP standards.
Security is foundational to our architecture. Certen uses enterprise-grade encryption (AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit), SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure, role-based access controls, and complete audit logging. Your data is isolated and never shared across customers.
Early access customers get full platform access at no cost during the beta period, direct input into our product roadmap, priority onboarding with white-glove support, and locked-in founder pricing when we launch commercially.
FSMA Rule 204 (Food Traceability Rule) is an FDA regulation requiring certain food manufacturers to maintain detailed traceability records — including Key Data Elements and Critical Tracking Events — for foods on the Food Traceability List. Compliance is mandatory by January 2026. Certen helps you meet these requirements with automated record-keeping and electronic traceability.
