CHALLENGE

Every formulation starts with ingredients.

Thousands of data points must move across teams, companies, and systems before a product reaches the market. Yet much of that knowledge remains trapped in supplier PDFs, spreadsheets, legacy PLM systems, inboxes, and disconnected databases.

At the same time brands & CMOs are expected to develop better products, respond faster to changing regulations and consumer demand, and make critical decisions with less time and increasing complexity.

General-purpose AI cannot solve this alone. Without structured industry data, vetted supplier relationships, formulation knowledge, and regulatory context, intelligence cannot be trusted.

Covalo provides the data backbone and intelligence that make better, faster, and more sustainable product development possible.
