- Type
- not stated
- Format
- Multimodal: unique physical tag identifiers with audit-trail event records, tabular national-database registrations and movements, auditor-generated conformity findings and inspection scores per audited entity, and certificate/audit report documents; delivered through an auditor-facing platform rather than an open API
- Volume
- Not disclosed. Structurally: one unique tag identity plus a movement/management event stream plus a slaughter endpoint per animal, multiplied by every farm in a tagged programme's supply shed including indirect suppliers, plus one audit record with item-level non-conformities per audited site per scheme per year across several dozen certification schemes. This is a per-animal and per-site record set, so the value is in relationship density rather than byte volume.
- Users
- N/A - a certification and traceability body serving audited entities (meatpackers, cold-storage and refrigeration industries, farms, food manufacturers) rather than registered users. Scale is better expressed as audited entities and tagged animals: with ~140 staff running field audits plus a national tag-to-database programme, the audited-site count is plausibly in the thousands and tagged head in the hundreds of thousands to millions.

- Growth
- Active - site assets and programme pages are dated 2026, the solution catalogue keeps expanding (meat-law, post-mortem inspection, animal inventory, sustainable energy, SMETA, IFS Progress, BRCGS), and corporate history shows a merger/acquisition stage rather than a startup stage.
- Launched
- Sbcert itself dates to ~2004-2007 as a Brazilian certification body (a mature, pre-open-data-era organisation with a merger/acquisition history and ~140 staff); the PRIMI individual-traceability and indirect-monitoring programme is far newer, ~2021-2023, since it depends on national-database integration and the post-2020 wave of zero-deforestation commitments.
