The Keel Difference

Why Choose Keel?

Keel is built by operators, for operators — giving you a production planning platform you truly own and can evolve at speed.

Built for Your Process

Every workflow, stage, and checkpoint is modelled around how you actually operate — not forced into a rigid template.

Live in Weeks

Launch tailored production planning systems in weeks, not months, with a managed build process and full team handover.

You Own It Completely

Full data ownership, version-controlled infrastructure, and the ability to iterate freely — no vendor lock-in, ever.

Proven Operator Expertise

Founded by executives who built systems handling 50k daily shipments — Keel's team understands high-complexity operations first-hand.

The Team Behind Keel

Built by operators who have solved these exact challenges at scale.

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, the founders built custom production and operations software to ship 50,000 medicines to 600,000 customers daily, growing the business to $130 million in annual revenue. They experienced first-hand how legacy ERP systems couldn't scale at the speed modern operations demand, so they built the solution they wished existed. Since then, Keel has raised $6 million in seed funding from leading European investors Earlybird and LocalGlobe, and is on a mission to empower operators everywhere with flexible, powerful tools they truly own — replacing spreadsheets and archaic ERPs with software built around each business's unique process.
