CERTAIN Platform Overview

CERTAIN is a cloud-based CE marking and conformity assessment platform for machinery, equipment and technical products within the European Economic Area.

Overview

The platform supports manufacturers, integrators, importers, distributors, engineering companies and CE consultants in researching, evaluating and documenting product conformity according to applicable European legislation.

CERTAIN combines legal research, harmonized standard identification, risk assessment, technical documentation and document generation within a single integrated cloud environment.

The system is designed to simplify and accelerate the CE marking process without reducing technical depth or regulatory compliance.

CE Marking Process Support

CERTAIN supports the complete CE conformity assessment workflow for machinery and technical products.

Supported European Legislation

Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230

CERTAIN supports workflows related to the Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 and the transition from the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC to the new Machinery Regulation.

This includes requirements related to Annex III, essential health and safety requirements, high-risk machinery, protection against corruption of safety functions, technical documentation and conformity assessment procedures.

Harmonized Standards Research

CERTAIN includes integrated research functionality for identifying harmonized European standards relevant to machinery and technical products.

The application of harmonized standards may contribute to the presumption of conformity with applicable European legislation.

Risk Assessment

CERTAIN supports structured machine risk assessment processes.

Functional Safety and Performance Level

CERTAIN supports Performance Level workflows according to EN ISO 13849.

Technical Documentation

CERTAIN supports generation and management of risk assessments, technical files, declarations of conformity, operating instructions and compliance documentation.

Operating Instructions

CERTAIN supports structured operating instruction generation. Project information can be inserted through linked placeholders and automatically updated when project data changes.

Multi-Language Documentation

CERTAIN supports technical documentation workflows in multiple European languages.

Cloud Collaboration

CERTAIN is a cloud-native platform supporting collaborative projects, centralized data management, remote access and structured conformity workflows.

Modern Platform Approach

CERTAIN was designed as a modern cloud-native CE marking platform focused on accessibility, efficiency and practical usability.

The platform is designed to allow productive use without requiring complex local installations or extensive software training.

Reduced Complexity

Many traditional CE documentation environments require extensive onboarding, specialist training, local installations or fragmented external tooling before productive work can begin.

CERTAIN focuses on practical usability and intuitive workflow guidance, allowing users to work productively with minimal onboarding effort while maintaining professional technical depth.

Transparent and Accessible Licensing

CERTAIN was designed to remain accessible not only for large enterprises but also for:

The platform avoids unnecessarily restrictive licensing structures and aims to provide a transparent and scalable licensing model.

Integrated Instead of Fragmented

Many traditional conformity assessment environments rely on disconnected software modules, isolated document systems and manually maintained external files.

CERTAIN combines legal research, harmonized standards research, risk assessment, technical documentation, operating instructions and conformity documentation within a single integrated platform workflow.

This reduces fragmentation, duplicate data handling and administrative overhead.

Continuous Regulatory Updates

CERTAIN continuously integrates current European legislation and harmonized standards references into the platform environment.

This approach helps users work with up-to-date regulatory information and reduces dependency on outdated local data structures or manually maintained document systems.

Modern User Experience

CERTAIN was designed with a focus on speed, clarity, usability, structured workflows and low administrative overhead.

The platform aims to make CE conformity assessment more approachable and manageable without oversimplifying regulatory requirements.

Practical CE Marking for Modern Industry

CERTAIN was created to bring the practical benefits of structured CE processes back into focus:

CERTAIN treats CE marking not merely as an administrative obligation, but as a structured process for improving safety, quality and the market readiness of technical products.
