Running a manufacturing operation means managing dozens of moving parts simultaneously—batches, schedules, quality checkpoints, and raw material flows. Keel's production control software is built around your exact process, not generic assumptions. From real-time batch visibility to fully integrated quality control and order-aligned scheduling, take total ownership of how you manufacture.
End-to-end software solutions built for manufacturing complexity—from production planning to fulfilment and everything in between.
Manage daily workloads and production batches aligned with your orders and delivery schedule. Built around your stages, checkpoints, and terminology—tracing every input, transformation, and output from raw materials to finished goods.
Real-time inventory tracking with lot and batch control, serial number tracing, expiry date management, and automated reorder points—built for manufacturing compliance and multi-location complexity.
Manage suppliers, automate purchase order approvals, and streamline replenishment from request to receipt—with three-way matching, budget tracking, and a complete audit trail.
Track every order from entry to delivery across multiple channels. Automate warehouse rules, allocate inventory intelligently, and manage splits, backorders, and returns from a single platform.
Configure warehouse workflows that match your exact layout, receiving process, and picking methodology—built for your floor structure, not a rigid off-the-shelf template.
Optimised wave, batch, and zone-based picking with barcode verification, automated carrier selection, label printing, SLA tracking, and a complete audit trail for every shipment.
Keel works directly with your operations team to document your actual production stages, batch logic, quality checkpoints, and terminology—ensuring nothing is lost in translation and no generic assumptions are made.
See how fast-moving manufacturing and operations teams replaced legacy tools with Keel's custom-built software.
Keel isn't another off-the-shelf ERP. It's a programmable operations platform built by operators, for operators—giving manufacturing teams total control over their software without the bloat.
Every production workflow, batch rule, and QC checkpoint is modelled around your exact manufacturing process—not a generic template.
Launch a fully configured, production-ready manufacturing system in weeks—not the months legacy ERP implementations typically demand.
Total ownership of your operations software means you can iterate, adapt, and scale without relying on a vendor or waiting in a support queue.
Serverless infrastructure, end-to-end type safety, OpenTelemetry observability, and built-in audit trails meet the rigorous demands of regulated manufacturing environments.
Built by operators who've been in your shoes and shipped at scale.
Keel was founded in 2021 by three former executives from Echo—Europe's fastest-growing online pharmacy—who served as its CEO, CTO, and CPO. At Echo, they built custom software to manage the shipment of 50,000 medicines daily to 600,000 customers, scaling the business to $130m in annual revenue before its acquisition by Pharmacy2U. They experienced first-hand how inflexible legacy software holds fast-moving operations back. Rather than accept that limitation, they built the platform they wished had existed. In 2024, Keel raised $6m in seed funding from leading European investors Earlybird and LocalGlobe, validating its mission to empower operations teams everywhere—including manufacturers—with flexible, powerful software they truly own.
Production control software helps manufacturers plan, schedule, monitor, and manage every stage of the production process—from raw material intake to finished goods. It replaces disconnected spreadsheets and rigid ERP systems with a single, real-time source of truth. For manufacturers dealing with batch complexity, quality checkpoints, and delivery deadlines, it's essential for operational visibility and efficiency.
