Simple. Compliant. Cost-Effective.
Improve compliance & streamline regulatory operations without breaking the bank.
Agency submissions, inspections, approvals… these can make or break an emerging pharma team’s success. But too often, budget and resource constraints force teams to manage these critical regulatory steps in messy file-sharing systems that not only make their job harder - and delay milestones - but also introduce significant compliance risks.
We created Kivo to solve this exact problem. Designed specifically for today’s modern, distributed regulatory work, Kivo provides a best-in-class RIM solution that is easy to use, fast to set up, requires no IT support, and is affordable enough for emerging teams.
Fully Validated
CFR Part 11 Compliant

"Kivo was really fast to set up training, and then because the system is so user-friendly, it just didn’t take that much time to get people up to speed. Normally the learning curve with a system like this is quite steep, but Kivo is so intuitive we can quickly get people oriented and off to the races."

Powering Fast-Growing Pharma Teams Around the Globe
Kivo works with more than 100 sponsors & service providers in the U.S., Europe & Asia. Our solution currently manages over 100 active drug applications.
Everything is included, for everyone who needs it
One of the main reasons many growing pharma teams put up with cumbersome (and risky) do-it-yourself solutions is the lack of affordable options for smaller teams. The cost of ‘big pharma’ systems is typically out of reach - both the software costs and expense to implement and maintain.
Kivo is designed, and priced, specifically to address that gap. We include everything in a single annual subscription - Setup, Document Import, Training, Validation, Unlimited Support - all starting at under $10,000 per year.

Role-based per user pricing for Full Platform, Limited Access, and 3rd-Party Access
No Hidden Fees (Seriously)

“I can’t even express how refreshing the ease of use is, because the complexity of the traditional Part 11 Compliant systems is nonsensical. Those were designed by and for large organizations. But Kivo makes it so easy.”
