ProfilePrint among first to achieve ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification

ProfilePrint, a Singapore-based food-tech company leveraging AI-powered ingredient fingerprint technology for the global agri-food industry, announced today that it has attained the ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification for its Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS), marking another milestone in the company’s ongoing efforts to build trustworthy and responsibly governed AI solutions for the industry.

The certification gives food manufacturers, traders and ingredient buyers independent, third-party assurance that the AI systems underpinning their quality decisions are developed, deployed and overseen under internationally recognized controls. It also provides a clear and auditable basis for these customers to draw on in their own supplier due-diligence and AI vendor assessment processes.

ProfilePrint combines AI and molecular fingerprinting technology to help food businesses assess the quality and consistency of ingredients and agricultural products more quickly and efficiently. Its platform is used across the supply chain – from origin to manufacturing – to support faster, more consistent quality decisions that ultimately reach consumers.

With AI becoming increasingly integrated into business operations worldwide, organizations are placing greater emphasis on responsible AI governance, transparency and risk management.

ISO/IEC 42001:2023, the world’s first international standard for Artificial Intelligence Management Systems, was introduced to help organizations establish structured processes and controls for the responsible use and oversight of AI systems.

For customers, the certification translates into practical assurances when working with ProfilePrint. AI models are developed, validated, and monitored under documented controls. Risks specific to AI, such as poor data quality and inappropriate use, are formally identified and managed, with clear accountability in place for how AI outputs are produced and reviewed, and the entire system is subject to ongoing independent audit. For quality, procurement and compliance teams, this reduces the burden of vendor due diligence and supports their own reporting on AI use within the supply chain.

Alan Lai, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of ProfilePrint, said: “At ProfilePrint, we believe that AI should be developed and used responsibly, especially in the food industry where trust and consistency matter. Our customers are making real commercial decisions on the back of our AI, about ingredient quality, supplier selection, and product consistency.

ISO/IEC 42001:2023 gives them an independently verified standard to point to, and it gives their own customers and auditors the same. That is the level of trust the food industry should expect from any AI it relies on.”

The ISO/IEC 42001:2023 certification builds on ProfilePrint’s existing ISO 27001 certification for information security management. Maintaining internationally recognized standards across both data security and AI governance has been a long-standing priority for the company. ProfilePrint regards these certifications as foundational to the trust its customers place in its platform.

As adoption of AI technologies continues to grow across the food and agriculture sectors, responsible governance is becoming central to how businesses choose and work with AI partners. ProfilePrint will continue to maintain and extend its AI Management System as it expands the use of AI across new ingredient categories and customer applications, with the certification underpinning the assurance it offers to partners worldwide.
