Kiln for regulated production
Agents can already run the printers. Enterprise makes the output provable: named sign-off on every release, first-article records drafted from your own print history, and an append-only audit trail your auditor can verify was never rewritten.

The actual compliance problem
A regulated shop doesn’t fail because a printer stopped — it fails when quality asks who approved this revision, what the first article measured, and which machine ran the job, and the answer lives in six tools and someone’s memory. Kiln records those answers as the work happens, so the proof exists the moment the part does.
What Enterprise adds
Releases carry named-approver e-signatures with the role and the decision inside the signature — 21 CFR Part 11 / AS9100 / ISO 13485-grade sign-off. Per-component reviewers, and step-up re-authentication before production signing.
Role-based access control with a full, long-retention audit trail behind it. The log is append-only and hash-chained — export it when the auditor asks, verify the chain end to end, and a rewritten line breaks it.
AS9102 first-article inspection reports drafted from your own print records — the design revision, the machine, the measurements — then signed by your reviewer, not generated into a vacuum.
Lockable safety profiles: quality engineering sets the temperature and material limits and locks them. No agent can modify a locked profile — unlocking takes an admin. G-code is encrypted at rest.
The proof chain
Each step below is a shipped workflow, not a roadmap slide. Thetier comparison on the pricing pageshows exactly which tier unlocks each one — the chain builds from Pro up, and Enterprise adds the named signatures, the first-article record, and the audit layer.
Every revision tracked with full lineage — who changed what, from which parent, with regression detection when a change makes a design worse.
A release is signed by a named approver, with role and decision recorded inside the signature. Tamper-evident: prove a design has not changed since sign-off.
First-article inspection reports drafted from the print records Kiln already holds, reviewed and signed by your own quality approver.
Every privileged action lands in an append-only, hash-chained audit trail with long-term retention — export it for an auditor and verify no line was altered after the fact.
The manual or certificate your customer received can be checked against the exact one you signed — authenticity they can confirm without calling you.
Deployment & trust
Local-first is the architecture, not a talking point: the path to your machines never has to leave your network.
Kiln runs inside your infrastructure boundary when policy requires it. Founder-led rollout, not a ticket queue.
The control path to your machines is local. Designs, G-code, and print records do not have to leave the building to be governed.
Production toolpaths — often the most sensitive artifact in the shop — are encrypted where they sit.
Sigstore-signed builds and SLSA provenance in a public transparency log, with a full SBOM — your scanners can check the whole stack. On every tier, including Free.
Check your download is genuine →SOC 2 readiness (in progress), CAIQ, and SIG Lite — the answers your security team asks for, ready before they ask.
For the hosted surface your team depends on, with dedicated sub-24h support behind it.
Who this is for
Kiln is useful on any bench. This page is for teams whose customers, regulators, or quality systems ask them to prove what they made — and who want agents doing the making.
AS9100-shaped quality systems need first-article records and named sign-off on every revision that reaches a machine. Kiln drafts the FAIR from records it already holds.
ISO 13485-shaped workflows want e-signatures with the decision inside the signature, and an audit trail that survives the auditor. Both are the default here, not an add-on.
Safety-critical exposure verdicts — concentrated acids, caustics, food contact — plus market compliance checks for skin-contact products across the EU, UK, US, and Canada.
Fixtures, tooling, and end-use parts inside a controlled-documents world: locked safety profiles, RBAC, and drawings to your industry’s own standard.
Enterprise is custom-quoted per deal — fleet size, deployment model, and compliance scope vary too much for one public number. Book an intro call and you’ll get a quote that fits your team, not a sales cycle.
Yes. Kiln is local-first on every tier, and Enterprise adds on-prem or VPC deployment for the hosted workflow, so nothing has to cross your boundary that your policy says can’t.
A security review pack under NDA: SOC 2 readiness documentation (in progress), CAIQ, and SIG Lite. Independently of that, every Kiln release ships Sigstore-signed builds, SLSA provenance, and a full SBOM that anyone can verify — no NDA needed.
No — it is everything in Business plus the governance layer: SSO/SCIM, RBAC, audit trails, named-approver e-signatures, FAIR drafting, lockable safety profiles, and the SLA. The pricing page has the full tier-by-tier comparison.
Custom-quoted, founder-led
No sales team, no discovery-call gauntlet. An intro call scopes your fleet, your compliance bar, and your deployment boundary — and you leave with a real quote.
