Certo: Making compliance a competitive advantage.
Our mission: At Certo we're on a simple mission: shrink the time, cost and risk of getting products to market. We build AI Compliance Agents that turn ever-changing regulations, supplier documents and formula rules into instant, auditable checks, so brands can launch faster, safer, and with confidence.
What we do
From raw material acceptability to marketing claims and dossier handoffs, Certo codifies regulatory know-how into agents that run continuously against your portfolio. We surface issues earlier, automate supplier follow-ups, and generate audit-ready documentation , converting regulatory work into a competitive asset reducing time to market.
FMCG innovation is slowed by fragmented, manual compliance. Certo unlocks product velocity, reduces risk exposure, and creates a defensible, data-driven compliance layer that competitors can't easily replicate.




Our promise
Transparent, auditable AI + human-in-the-loop review where it matters. We partner with your regulatory teams and trusted third-party certifiers to deliver defensible, enterprise-grade results.
Every compliance check comes with complete audit trails, legal citations, and step-by-step reasoning. Our AI agents surface issues early, but your regulatory experts maintain full control over final determinations. We provide the evidence and analysis, you make the decisions.
Our platform generates regulator-grade reports with exact source page references, so quality and regulatory teams can verify findings without back-and-forth. When regulations change, we automatically recheck impacted products and alert your team to required actions.
Meet the team
Built by people who know both the art and the pain of compliance.
Our founders bring together deep regulatory expertise and technical innovation to solve the compliance challenges that slow down the industry.
Bastien had spent years at Roland Berger advising FMCG biggest players in the world on strategy, he saw firsthand how regulatory increasing complexity slowed down billion-dollar launches.
Jean, an engineer specialized in AI and automation, built data-driven products used for over 1,000 businesses, he knew what was technically possible if the right data and logic could be codified.
Together, they created Certo: a platform where every regulatory rule becomes a programmable agent. What started as a late-night idea between a consultant and an engineer now powers AI compliance workflows for global brands from Paris to Tokyo.
They've since surrounded themselves with experts in regulatory affairs, data science, and enterprise software, people who believe compliance should be as scalable as cloud infrastructure.
