Keel's real-time inventory management software gives you complete visibility across every location, SKU, and production stage — no guesswork, no spreadsheet chaos. From automated reorders and lot traceability to IoT integrations and compliance-ready audit trails, it's the operations backbone fast-moving manufacturers have been waiting for.

Most inventory tools force manufacturers into rigid templates designed for retail. Keel is different — it's modelled around your actual operations: your stages, your SKUs, your compliance requirements. Whether you're managing sensitive expiry windows, tracking serialised components, or synchronising stock across multiple production sites, Keel delivers real-time visibility down to the bin level. Automated reorders, FIFO valuation, IoT integrations, and role-based permissions mean your team always has exactly the information they need — and nothing they don't.

Keel is the modern ERP alternative built for operations teams who need flexibility, speed, and total ownership of their tools.
No rigid templates — every workflow, SKU structure, and compliance rule is modelled around how your manufacturing operation actually runs.
Launch a fully tailored inventory management system in weeks, not months, and iterate freely as your operations evolve and grow.
You own your data, your workflows, and your system outright — no vendor lock-in, no black-box platform, full control at every level.
Built-in audit trails, role-based permissions, lot traceability, and ICO-registered data handling give regulated manufacturers the compliance backbone they need.
Operators who built the tools they wished existed — now building them for you.
Keel was founded in 2021 by three former executives from Echo — Europe's fastest-growing online pharmacy, later acquired by Pharmacy2U. As CEO, CTO, and CPO, they built custom operations software shipping 50,000 medicines to 600,000 customers daily, scaling Echo to $130 million in annual revenue. They experienced first-hand how legacy systems couldn't keep pace with fast-moving, highly regulated operations. Rather than settle for inflexible off-the-shelf tools, they built their own — and gained a decisive competitive advantage in the process. In 2024, Keel raised $6 million in seed funding from leading European investors Earlybird and LocalGlobe, validating the mission to empower operators everywhere with flexible, powerful tools they truly own.
The four main types are periodic inventory systems (stock counted at set intervals), perpetual inventory systems (continuously updated in real time), just-in-time systems (stock ordered only as needed to minimise holding costs), and materials requirement planning (MRP) systems that align inventory with production schedules. Keel's platform supports perpetual, real-time tracking with MRP-style demand planning and automated reorders built in.
