Software for certification bodies

Certification software shaped around your process.

AI handles the routine admin, and every certification decision stays with your people.

Two ways certification bodies run today. Both cost too much.

Spreadsheets and email

Audit status lives in files and inboxes. Each audit needs too many people to move it along. Every new scheme adds another workaround.

Legacy certification software

The licence gets more expensive every renewal. The workflows are fixed, so your team bends its process to fit them. Any change becomes a paid project.

What Certimodo does

The full certification cycle in one place, from the first application to every surveillance audit after it.

Client applications

Clients apply, complete questionnaires and upload documents through their own portal. Each person sees only what their role allows.

Audit planning

Create audit plans, assign auditors and manage sites, dates and contacts for every audit.

Checklists and findings

Auditors work through the scheme checklist, attach evidence and record non-conformities and corrective actions against each requirement.

Reports and technical review

Generate the audit report from the checklist. Reviewers comment, auditors respond, and every change is recorded.

Certification decisions

Record the decision, issue the certificate and schedule surveillance and recertification audits.

Reporting

Track performance across audits and auditors, and send scheme owners the data they ask for.

Every stage, checklist, document and permission is configured for your scheme.

How it works

  1. 01

    Configure your process

    We map how you deliver each scheme and set up your audit stages, checklists, decision steps and scheme owner reporting.

  2. 02

    Import your data

    We bring across your clients, sites, auditors and active certificates from your spreadsheets or current system.

  3. 03

    Set up users and templates

    Invite your team, auditors and clients with the right permissions, and add your email templates, audit reports and certificates.

  4. 04

    Start new audits

    New audits begin in Certimodo while audits in progress finish on your current system. Your clients see no disruption.

Set up with AI. Work with the AI you already use.

Certimodo uses AI to save your team time. Certification decisions always stay with people.

Configure by describing it

Describe your scheme, its stages and its requirements in plain language. Certimodo drafts the checklists, workflows and documents for your team to review and adjust.

Connect your own AI assistant

Clients, auditors and admins can connect assistants such as Claude or ChatGPT to Certimodo through MCP, an open standard for linking AI to software. They can find records, check what is outstanding and prepare their work without leaving the assistant they already use.

Access stays controlled

An assistant can only reach the data its user is allowed to see in Certimodo. Auditors and reviewers make every certification decision.

Where Certimodo comes from

Certimodo started as audit software we built with a certification body. We worked alongside its auditors and reviewers, fixed what slowed them down and kept going until the results showed. Certimodo takes that work and makes it configurable for any certification body.

Pricing

Pricing on demand.

It is calculated per certificates issued in a year. Auditors, users and schemes are unlimited.

FAQ

Will it fit the way we work?

Yes. Audit flows, checklists, documents and workflows are configured for each of your schemes.

How does switching work?

Audits already in progress finish on your current system. New audits start in Certimodo. Plan for about three months to move over fully.

How is our data kept secure?

Each certification body runs on its own server and database, so your data is never stored alongside another client. Your data is hosted in the EU, encrypted in transit and at rest, and only named members of our team can access it, for support. The AI features use [provider] under business terms that do not allow your data to be used to train models. We sign a data processing agreement with every client.

How is pricing calculated?

Pricing is on demand and calculated per certificates issued in a year.

Can we add a scheme later?

Yes. Schemes are unlimited, and adding one is a configuration task, not a development project.
