Certa
Overview
Certa
Built by compliance practitioners, Certa unifies esg & sustainability and restricted party screening signals from across your tech stack into a workflow your auditors will actually like. Every decision is captured with reviewer, timestamp, justification and supporting evidence, so an external audit becomes a query rather than a fire drill. Workflows are configurable per business unit, jurisdiction and risk tier — operators see exactly the queue they need, while leadership gets a live view of programme health. Native integrations with ERP, CRM, TMS and HRIS systems mean screenings happen at the point of business — onboarding, invoicing, shipment release — instead of in a separate silo. A documented REST API and outbound webhooks make it straightforward to embed compliance checks into custom applications and to stream events into your data warehouse. The platform ingests sanctions, denied-parties, beneficial-ownership and trade-classification data continuously, so your team is always working against the latest source-of-truth. Teams choose Certa because it shortens screening cycle times, reduces false-positive load, and makes audit prep a non-event.
