1. Product certification scope
What we say · What we don't say
Keystone is designed to support your FSAI, HACCP and BRCGS traceability workflows. It provides an immutable audit log, signed PDF exports and one-click full-chain backward and forward trace — the technical evidence retailer auditors and competent authorities expect.
Keystone is not independently certified to any GFSI, BRCGS, IFS, SQF, FSSC 22000 or ISO 22005 product-certification scheme. Formal product-level attestation of the platform is a 2026 roadmap item. Your site certification remains your responsibility — we are a tool that helps you evidence the controls your scheme already requires.
2. Compliance language & regulatory advice
Statements on this website such as "FSAI-ready", "HACCP-aligned", "BRCGS Issue 9 mock-recall compatible" and "signed PDF for auditors" describe the technical capabilities of the software and the supporting evidence it produces.
These statements are not legal or regulatory advice. Compliance with EU Regulation (EC) 178/2002, the Food Safety Authority of Ireland Act 1998, the Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA) regulations, BRCGS Global Standard for Food Safety Issue 9 (or any successor issue), or any retailer-specific code of practice remains your responsibility. We strongly recommend you engage a qualified food-safety consultant or auditor to confirm your specific obligations.
3. Pricing terms
Headline pricing on this site
- Standard licence: €790 / month / site, billed monthly. All core modules unlocked. Reasonable-use users (typically 5–15 named accounts per site).
- Plus tier: €1,290 / month for up to 3 sites under a single tenant.

- Implementation: Fixed-fee quoted in writing per engagement. Typical range €4,950–€16,500 depending on customer count, retailer integrations and historical data import scope.
Prices exclude Irish VAT (charged at the prevailing rate where applicable) and are denominated in Euros (€). Quoted prices are valid for 30 days from the date of the written quote unless explicitly extended. Pricing on this website may be revised with 60 days' notice to existing customers; in-contract pricing is held for the duration of the signed agreement.
4. Implementation timelines
"Pilot live in 30 days" describes our standard implementation target for a single-site producer with a typical customer count and retailer integration list. Actual go-live depends on data quality, customer code mappings, AccountsIQ / accounting integration scope, and your team's availability for the workshop programme. We commit to a timeline in writing inside the implementation Statement of Work — not on this marketing page.
5. Performance & benchmark claims
Claims such as "backward trace in under 30 seconds", "mock-recall in 90 seconds" and "COA generated in 6 seconds" are based on realistic operational benchmarks measured against the seeded sandbox dataset on production infrastructure as of May 2026. Real-world performance on your data depends on dataset volume, network conditions and downstream integrations.
