Qualio API
A REST Developer API covers documents, quality events, training, users, suppliers, and design controls, documented publicly at docs.qualio.com. Tokens require full admin permission on the tenant, there are no webhooks so integrations poll, and rate limits are unpublished.
Frequently asked questions
Qualio scores D on the API Report Card. A REST Developer API covers documents, quality events, training, users, suppliers, and design controls, documented publicly at docs.qualio.com. Tokens require full admin permission on the tenant, there are no webhooks so integrations poll, and rate limits are unpublished.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly.
Qualio is a cloud-native electronic quality management system (eQMS) and compliance intelligence platform built specifically for regulated life sciences companies.
Vertical: Compliance / GRC, narrowly focused on life sciences quality and regulatory. Quality and regulatory teams use Qualio as the system of record for every GxP-controlled document, SOPs, work instructions, specs, batch records, validation protocols, with full version control, electronic signatures (21 CFR Part 11), and audit trail.
Qualio reports 500-700+ customers across 80+ countries with ~250 paying logos as of 2024 and ~$22M ARR, making it one of the leading purpose-built eQMS platforms for the emerging life sciences segment but well behind enterprise incumbents in absolute share.
Yes, for a regulated life sciences company, Qualio is the legally-defensible system of record.
Founded in 2012 in Dublin, Ireland by Robert Fenton (CEO) and now headquartered in San Francisco with offices in Dublin, Qualio was built cloud-native from day one, making it one of the first true SaaS eQMS platforms (versus the on-prem or hosted-legacy stacks of MasterControl/Sparta/TrackWise).
API access requires ADMIN permissions on the tenant, no scoped, read-only, or developer-tier credentials, forcing customers to over-grant access to any integration. No webhook support documented, integrations have to poll the REST API for new documents, training completions, and events, adding latency and load. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include MasterControl, Veeva Vault QMS, Greenlight Guru, Sparta TrackWise (Honeywell), ETQ Reliance (Hexagon), ZenQMS. Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? We check six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and roll them into a letter grade. Grades get re-verified, and they only move on evidence.
Yes. Supergood maintains an unofficial Qualio API and MCP server so AI agents and internal tools can read and write Qualio data. See the Qualio integration docs at supergood.ai/docs/qualio-api.
