From inbox to audited record in 30 seconds

No IT project. No supplier onboarding. No template setup.

1

Drag in the PDF

Drop a supplier TDS, SDS, or CoA — single file or batch. We accept the formats your suppliers actually send: scanned PDFs, native PDFs, image exports.

2

We extract and audit

The system pulls supplier code, dates, country of origin, allergens, and certifications, then runs them through your custom flag rules and EU regulatory checks. Findings come back in plain English.

3

Approve, file, alert

Approve the audit (or override individual findings) and the record locks into your library with an expiry date. Email reminders go out 60, 30, and 7 days before each document needs refreshing.

Five features. No bloat.

Built around the actual QA workflow — not a feature list cobbled together by product marketing.

📄

Supplier document audit

TDS, SDS, and CoA documents audited against your buying spec, your custom flag rules, and EU regulatory baselines (1169/2011 allergens, novel food list, contested substances).

🗂️

Document library & expiry tracking

Every audited document filed with version history, approval trail, and automatic expiry alerts — built on the same ISO 9001 §7.5.2 lifecycle the F&F platform uses.

🏭

Supplier directory

One view of every supplier: contact, country, certifications held, last document received, and overall risk status. Pulls in automatically from each audit.

⚙️

Custom flag rules

"Always flag if peanut, soy, or wheat present." "Always flag if origin outside EU." "Always flag if shelf life under 12 months." Set the rules once; every audit applies them.

🌾

Allergen consolidation matrix

A single matrix view of every allergen declared by every supplier across your library. Useful for BRCGS / IFS allergen risk assessments and customer questionnaires.

📊

Audit-ready exports

One-click export of any document, audit report, or supplier dossier as PDF or CSV. Bring evidence into your BRCGS / IFS / FSSC 22000 audit without screen-grabbing emails.

Why we built this

I've spent 25+ years in the flavour industry — bench formulation, regulatory submissions, supplier qualification, customer audits. We originally built Binacru to automate TDS and SDS authoring for flavour houses, because we lived that pain ourselves.

Then we noticed something. The food manufacturers buying from those flavour houses had the same documentation problem from the other side: hundreds of supplier TDS and CoA arriving every month, reviewed manually in Excel, with no expiry tracking, no spec comparison, and no audit trail until the BRCGS auditor showed up. The QA managers we spoke with weren't asking for another platform. They were asking for a tool that takes one specific job — checking incoming supplier documents — and does it well.

So that's what this is. One product, one job, one transparent price. If your team needs full PLM, recipe management, or lot traceability, you should look at TraceGains or Trustwell. If you just want supplier documents audited cleanly without an enterprise contract, this is for you.

Questions QA managers always ask

The four objections that come up in every procurement conversation. Answered up front.

How does my data stay private?
Each customer is fully isolated — your audited documents, your supplier directory, and your custom rules are never visible to other tenants. We never train models on your documents. Infrastructure is EU-hosted, GDPR-compliant, with TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest. A Mutual NDA and a Data Privacy & Security Statement are available on request before you upload your first document.
What if the audit gets something wrong?
Every audit is reviewable before the record locks. You can override individual findings, add internal notes, or reject the audit entirely. Failed or rejected audits don't deduct credits. The system is designed to put a structured first-pass review in front of your QA tech — not to replace their final judgement.
Will this integrate with my QMS or ERP?
PDF and CSV export of any audit, document, or supplier dossier works for everyone — no integration project required. For teams on the Unlimited plan, we offer API access so audited records can flow directly into your QMS, supplier qualification system, or ERP. Custom integration support is billable at fixed scope.
Do you replace TraceGains, Trustwell, or Specright?
No. Those are full PLM and supplier compliance platforms with global supplier networks, recipe management, lot traceability, and enterprise pricing. We do one thing — audit incoming supplier documents — and we do it for teams that don't need or can't afford an enterprise contract. If you have an enterprise budget and need a networked supplier marketplace, those platforms are the right fit. If you have a QA team and a folder of supplier PDFs, this is.
What document types do you support?
Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Safety Data Sheets (SDS), Certificates of Analysis (CoA), Certificates of Origin, Organic / Kosher / Halal certificates, allergen statements, and supplier specification sheets. Both native PDFs and scanned PDFs work. If you have a document type we don't yet handle well, send a sample — we'll tell you honestly whether it's a fit before you commit.
How is this different from generic OCR tools like Nanonets or Rossum?
Generic OCR extracts fields. We extract fields and apply F&B-specific compliance logic on top — allergen cross-references, EU positive list checks, contested substance flags, your custom rules. With a generic tool you'd get the data and still have to build the audit logic yourself in Excel. Here, the audit is the output.
