Company profile
researched Sep 2026Validproof offers software that helps pharmaceutical companies meet traceability obligations and confirm that medicines reach their intended recipients. The platform is organised around four capabilities: proof of origin, which records the manufacturer, manufacturing date, batch/lot number, expiry date and regulatory approval status of a product and tracks changes of ownership along its supply-chain journey; proof of authenticity, which lets partners, customers and consumers check whether a specific product has been verified as genuine or remains unverified; proof of delivery, which maintains a chain-of-custody log of pickup, distribution-centre transit, arrival and signature events with timestamps and addresses and can be exported as a full report; and decommissioning, which retires product identifiers for expired, recalled or damaged goods so that counterfeiters cannot reuse product data to circulate falsified versions.
The company positions the product for roles such as traceability officers, compliance managers and regulatory agents, framing the outcome as full compliance in pharmaceutical traceability together with protection against counterfeiting. Its website is structured around a features section, a blog, demo requests and consultation bookings. TechCrunch's Startup Battlefield company listing categorises Validproof under SaaS/enterprise, AI/machine learning, logistics, pharmaceuticals and compliance.
