What is Certigo SDS Manager?
Certigo SDS Manager is an enterprise software platform that centralizes, auto-updates, and delivers every one of a company's Safety Data Sheets — on the web for safety officers and on iOS/Android for floor workers. It combines AI extraction (Gemini 2.5), supplier email intake, and confidence-score gating to keep every SDS current and compliant.
- •Native bilingual English–French, purpose-built for the Quebec market
- •AI PDF parsing with a 0.85 confidence gate — low-quality parses go to a review queue, never auto-apply
- •Weekly automatic updates — supplier email intake + SHA-256 content-hash fallback for CDNs without Last-Modified headers
- •GHS pictograms, HMIS bars, and NFPA 704 diamonds rendered inline with zero external dependencies
- •Offline-capable iOS + Android app with QR code scanning and worker acknowledgements
- •Tier II + OSHA 300 reports, DOT/TDG/IMDG segregation rules, per-SDS Stripe billing with automatic GST/QST/HST tax
Everything your safety team needs
A single platform that replaces paper binders, SharePoint folders, and competitors like VelocityEHS and ChemWatch.
AI-powered SDS parsing
Upload a supplier PDF or DOCX; the AI extracts all 16 GHS sections in seconds with a confidence score on every parse.
Automatic updates
Email intake at sds-intake+<your-subdomain>@certigo.net, weekly content-hash detection, and AI confidence gating — your SDSs stay current without anyone lifting a finger.
Bilingual EN + FR
UI, content translations, and generated labels in both languages. Quebec workplaces stay compliant with the Charter of the French Language.
WHMIS 2023 + HCS 2024 ready
GHS Rev 11 label rules built in, required product identifiers, hazard and precautionary statements — all validated on import.
Worker mobile app
iOS and Android with offline kiosk mode. Workers scan a QR code on a container and see the SDS, pictograms, and emergency card instantly.
Floor plan pinning
Pin every SDS to its physical location on your floor plans. Automatic storage incompatibility detection — PROHIBITED, SEPARATE, CAUTION.
Tier II + OSHA 300
Generate EPCRA Tier II and OSHA 300/300A/301 reports directly from your inventory. Submission-ready PDFs, no re-keying.
Supplier integrations
API connections for VelocityEHS, ChemWatch, Verisk 3E, and MSDSonline. Auto-refresh SDSs from your suppliers' catalogs.
Per-SDS billing
Stripe-native pricing with FLAT, VOLUME, or GRADUATED tiers. Canadian GST/QST and US state sales tax computed automatically.
iOS + Android, built for the shop floor
Workers don't open PDFs in a browser. They scan a QR code on a container and see the emergency card in under 2 seconds — even without a network. Full offline snapshot of your SDS catalog cached on device.
- Offline mode — full persistent cache of your SDS catalog
- Deep-linking from QR codes printed on containers
- Bilingual EN/FR with one-tap toggle

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Certigo SDS Manager cost?+
Pricing is tailored to your SDS count, number of locations, and features required. Request a quote and we respond within one business day.
Does the mobile app work offline?+
Yes. The entire SDS catalog is cached on the device. Workers can scan QR codes, read SDSs, and record acknowledgements with no network — everything syncs when reconnected.
Is the software available in French?+
Yes, fully bilingual UI and content. Quebec teams run it entirely in French; generated labels, reports, and SDS translations support both languages.
How does the automatic SDS update work?+
Three parallel mechanisms: (1) weekly HTTP Last-Modified check, (2) SHA-256 content-hash fallback for CDNs without Last-Modified, (3) email intake — suppliers can send revisions to sds-intake+<your-subdomain>@certigo.net. Any AI parse with confidence < 0.85 goes to human review.
Do you integrate with VelocityEHS, ChemWatch, or Verisk 3E?+
Yes. Our vendor adapters pull SDSs automatically from third-party databases when a supplier doesn't publish a direct URL.
Can you generate Tier II and OSHA 300 reports?+
Yes. EPCRA Tier II and OSHA 300/300A/301 reports are generated from your inventory and incident data. PDFs are submission-ready — no re-keying.
Which mobile platforms does the app support?+
iOS 15+ and Android 8+. Distributed via Apple App Store and Google Play. The same codebase powers both via Capacitor.
Who owns the data?+
You do. Every SDS, inventory record, and event is stored in your database instance and exportable at any time. We do not resell or mine your data.
