No credit card. Set your lab up yourself in a few minutes — $59/month when the trial ends, and nothing is charged before you choose to subscribe.
Every generated certificate carries a QR code an assessor can scan to verify it independently.
Live readiness scores across every compliance area, on one dashboard.
Sound familiar?
Compliance lives in five different spreadsheets
Calibration in one tab, the training matrix in another, EQA results in a shared drive, SOPs in a folder, maintenance in a paper log. Nobody fully trusts any of them, and pulling a single answer takes hours.
The evidence exists — it just isn't retrievable
The auditor wants a calibration certificate, a training record, an EQA report, a signed SOP acknowledgment, and a maintenance log — and suddenly half your team is digging through shared drives and inboxes trying to piece a trail together.
Things slip because no one got a reminder in time
An overdue calibration. A missed EQA submission. A training expiry that nobody flagged. An SOP that was never reviewed. You only find out when the auditor points it out — or worse, when a result is questioned.
How it works
From setup to audit in three moves
-
Create your lab in a few minutes
Sign up, name your lab, pick your accreditation standard, and start entering equipment straight away — no sales call and no credit card. Everything is entered in the application; there is no spreadsheet import yet, so if you would rather not do the first load yourself, we will sit on a screen-share and do the data entry with you. Invite your team with role-based access: admins configure, technicians log, viewers read only.
-
Work the system day-to-day
Log calibrations, training, EQA results, and maintenance as they happen. CalibDue sends the reminders automatically, on a lead-time cadence tuned per module, plus an on-overdue alert. Corrective actions, document acknowledgments, and competency assessments are tracked automatically.
-
Walk into every audit prepared
Open the dashboard. Six module cards, one score per area. Click any score to drill into the evidence. Export an audit-ready PDF in one click — calibration register, competency matrix, or controlled-document register. No scramble.
Accreditation-aware
Built around the rules your auditor actually applies
Most compliance tools store data. CalibDue knows what the data means under your accreditation standard: it's recorded once and carried through every export and generated certificate — and in EQA, the rules engine applies the right review windows and thresholds automatically.
- Two-out-of-three consecutive unsuccessful PT events flagged automatically
- Mandatory PT integrity attestation enforced at submission
- 30-day review of evaluation report tracked from results-received
- Corrective action documentation linked to the failing event
- Documented training and competency assessment per staff member, per topic, per device
- Periodic SOP review on a defined schedule with evidence of staff acknowledgment
- EQA participation tracked with acceptable z-score thresholds per analyte
- Superseded certificates retained on replacement — a corrected or reissued certificate never destroys the version it replaces
- ISO 15189-aligned rule set with lab-defined review windows and consecutive-failure logic
- Per-analyte evaluation methods (z-score, fixed criteria, peer SDI, qualitative match)
- Audit-ready evidence trails with checksummed file versions

Features
Everything your lab needs to stay compliant
Calibration tracking
Multiple calibration schedules per instrument with current / due-soon / overdue status, automated reminders 30, 7, and 1 day before, certificate storage, and one-click PDF audit export.
Learn moreTraining & Competency
Training topics, assignments, records, and competency assessments — with a full competency matrix, five-state status per user, and a lab-wide training readiness score.
Learn moreEQA / Proficiency Testing Beta
Add the providers your lab actually uses, then programs, analytes, and rounds — with report-import mappings for CAP, RCPA and RIQAS result files. Z-score trends, auto-suggested acceptability, corrective actions with effectiveness verification, and consecutive-failure detection per standard.
Learn morePreventive Maintenance
Reusable maintenance checklists, date-based or usage-based plans, response logging with parts tracking, follow-up actions, and a maintenance compliance score on the dashboard.
Learn moreDocument Control Beta
Controlled SOP register with multi-version uploads (SHA-256 checksum), multi-reviewer approval workflow, per-version acknowledgments, periodic reviews, and a document compliance score.
Learn moreCertificates an assessor can verify without you Beta
Generate branded calibration certificates with locked sequential numbering and a QR code that resolves to a public verification page. A withdrawn certificate reports itself as withdrawn, so a stale PDF in a client's file can't quietly keep passing.
Learn moreOut-of-tolerance handled the way 17025 expects
Tolerance is evaluated server-side, never taken from the form. An out-of-tolerance point under an overall pass forces a disposition, raises a nonconformity, and holds the instrument behind a return-to-service gate until impact on prior results is assessed — the ISO/IEC 17025 §6.4.9 obligation, enforced rather than documented.
Learn moreNonconformity & CAPA register
NC-2026-0001 references and no delete route — a nonconformity is cancelled with a reason, never erased. Where an impact window applies, closure is blocked until the impact assessment is recorded, and effectiveness verification is a separate signed-off step after closure, with self-verification requiring a written reason. EQA corrective actions and equipment nonconformities read from one register. Off by default on a new lab — ask us to switch it on.
Live readiness score, by module
Calibration, training, maintenance, EQA, and document scores side by side on one dashboard — formatted for ISO 15189, CAP, CLIA, or UKAS. Role-based access for technicians, admins, and viewers.
FAQ
Common questions about lab compliance software
What is lab compliance software, and why do accredited labs need it?
Lab compliance software replaces the spreadsheets, paper logs, and shared drives most labs use to track calibration, training, EQA, maintenance, and controlled documents. Accredited labs need it because standards like ISO 15189, CAP, CLIA, and UKAS all require documented evidence — current calibration certificates, training records with competency assessments, EQA participation with corrective actions, preventive maintenance logs, and controlled SOPs with acknowledgments. CalibDue centralises every requirement, automates reminders so nothing slips, and produces audit-ready PDF exports on demand.
What software do labs use for ISO 15189 compliance?
ISO 15189 covers far more than calibration — it requires documented competency, EQA participation, equipment maintenance, and controlled documents. CalibDue is purpose-built for ISO 15189 and supports CAP, CLIA, and UKAS too. It stores calibration certificates, tracks competency and training, manages EQA programs with z-score trending and corrective actions, runs preventive maintenance, controls SOPs with versioning and acknowledgments, and generates audit-ready reports formatted for your accreditation standard.
How do CAP and CLIA proficiency testing requirements differ?
Both CAP and CLIA require successful PT participation and corrective action on unacceptable results, but the specifics differ. CLIA mandates that two out of three consecutive unsuccessful events trigger a regulatory event, with PT integrity attestation at submission and a 30-day window to review the evaluation report. CAP applies its own consecutive-failure logic and also enforces PT integrity attestation. CalibDue's EQA module enforces the right rule per accreditation standard automatically — you don't have to remember which rule applies where.
Can CalibDue track staff training and competency?
Yes. The Training & Competency module lets you define training topics (per equipment or procedure), assign them to users, log training records with evidence uploads, and conduct competency assessments. You get a full competency matrix (topics × users), a five-state status per user (compliant, expiring soon, non-compliant, pending assessment, not started), a lab-wide training readiness score on the dashboard, and automated reminders before any expiry — plus PDF training reports for audits.
Does CalibDue support EQA / proficiency testing programs?
Yes. The EQA module covers the full workflow: you add your own providers by name — whoever you actually use — with built-in report-import mappings for the CAP, RCPA and RIQAS result-file formats; then programs, analytes with z-score acceptable and warning thresholds, rounds, lab and provider result entry with auto-suggested acceptability, round status transitions, corrective actions with effectiveness verification, consecutive-failure detection per accreditation standard, and an EQA participation score on the dashboard. PT integrity attestation and review-window enforcement are built in.
How does CalibDue handle calibration tracking and reminders?
Every instrument can have multiple calibration schedules (e.g. pressure test + temperature calibration on one analyser). Each schedule tracks status as current, due soon, or overdue. Reminders fire automatically by email 30, 7, and 1 day before due, plus an on-overdue alert. You can log calibrations with date, result, technician, and attached certificate — or generate certificates from a branded template with sequential numbering. The Equipment register stores serial numbers, locations, suppliers, and full calibration history.
How do I prepare for a CAP, ISO 15189, CLIA, or UKAS audit?
Preparing for an audit means having every calibration, training record, EQA result, maintenance log, and controlled document up-to-date and easy to retrieve. CalibDue gives you a live readiness score for each area so you always know where you stand. With one-click PDF exports (calibration audit report, training report, document register, maintenance report), centralised evidence storage, and automated reminders across every module, you go from weeks of preparation to minutes — and walk into every inspection with confidence.
Can multiple labs or sites use CalibDue together?
Not yet — and we would rather tell you now than after onboarding. CalibDue today serves one accredited lab per account, with strict data isolation between accounts enforced at the middleware layer. Multi-site consolidated oversight is on the roadmap and is the next architectural change we are making; if you run several accredited sites, email contact@calibdue.com before you start a trial and we will tell you honestly whether we fit yet, rather than sell you something that does not.
What roles and permissions does CalibDue support?
Three roles. Admins configure modules, manage equipment and SOPs, invite team members, and access reports and settings. Technicians log calibrations, training, maintenance, and EQA results — and acknowledge documents assigned to them. Viewers see the dashboard and registers in read-only mode, ideal for auditors, consultants, or upper management. All actions are recorded in an append-only activity log so every change has an attributable trail.
How does CalibDue handle controlled SOPs and document acknowledgments?
The Document Control module manages your controlled SOP register with multi-version uploads (SHA-256 checksum on every file), a multi-reviewer approval workflow, and per-version acknowledgment tracking. When a new version is approved, assigned staff are notified and must acknowledge — admin can also bulk-acknowledge after a training session. Periodic review schedules ensure documents are reviewed before they go stale, and a compliance score on the dashboard shows what's pending.
How secure is my lab's data in CalibDue?
Data isolation is enforced at the middleware layer: every authenticated request is scoped to your organisation, and there is no cross-organisation API surface to bypass. We verified this with a 15-endpoint cross-tenant sweep that produced zero leaks. Authentication is cookie-based session auth (Laravel Sanctum) with rate limiting on every public endpoint. Every uploaded file — calibration certificates, document versions, evidence — is stored with a SHA-256 checksum so tampering is detectable, and downloads are served through short-lived signed URLs that expire after 15 minutes rather than permanent public links. Destructive actions are soft-deleted and written to an append-only activity log with the actor stamped server-side. We are a new vendor and we will not pretend otherwise: we hold no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification today, and our current backup and encryption posture is documented in full on our security page rather than summarised into a badge. If your procurement process needs written answers, ask and we will send them.
Is CalibDue available now, and how much does it cost?
Yes, CalibDue is available now. Signup is self-serve at app.calibdue.com/signup: you create your lab, pick your accreditation standard, and start using it immediately on a 14-day free trial with no credit card. There is one plan at $59 per month, billed monthly in US dollars — no tiers, no per-seat charge, and the audit export is included rather than sold as an upgrade. Paid checkout is not open yet while we finish setting up Paddle as merchant of record, so the trial is the only way in today and nothing can be charged to you before then. If the trial ends before you subscribe, your lab becomes read-only — everything you recorded stays visible, an administrator can still generate the audit export, and nothing is deleted. Full detail is on the pricing page.
