In almost any small or mid-sized factory there is an overworked manager spending hours chasing workers to take required training and update their certifications, all while laboriously keeping an over-stuffed spreadsheet alive. It’s a time-consuming routine, and missed expiration dates pose a risk during a surprise OSHA, ISO, or FDA audit. Poor performance on such an audit can be grounds for losing crucial contracts. Today, MakerComply announced its wait-list for the upcoming Free Employee Training Tracker, a mobile and web app designed to simplify inspection readiness and eliminate training compliance gaps.
Traditional compliance software requires managers to manually track workers’ hundreds of training records, year after year. MakerComply flips that script. Through a friction-free, mobile-friendly shop floor portal, staff can upload a photo or PDF of a new safety training, forklift certification, or hazmat record directly from any device in under five minutes.
"Every manager knows how it feels when they look at a spreadsheet and realize a worker certification expired weeks ago and there’s an inspection around the corner," said a MakerComply CMO KR Cowan. "We wanted to build something that actually helps people feel confidence about compliance. Instead of requiring managers to babysit deadlines, our platform sends automatic text reminders to workers at 60, 30, and 7 days before trainings and certifications expire. It just handles it."
When a team member uploads proof of training, the platform handles the rest. It instantly updates the centralized dashboard, live progress reports, and the employee skills matrix, keeping the facility’s training records perpetually prepared for unannounced regulatory audits.
MakerComply is skipping the usual tech industry playbook of charging hefty setup fees or hiding basic features behind paywalls. The software is free for up to 100 workers, 10 training courses, and 5 distinct certifications. There is no credit card required to sign up, and companies can export their raw data whenever they want.
Early access registration is now officially open and manufacturers are already signing up. The first 100 facilities to join the online waitlist will receive white-glove onboarding, including custom "done-for-you" digital workspace setup and 90 days of live, USA-based support.

MakerComply is founded by a team whose software has served highly-regulated industries for more than two decades. The idea for MakerComply became personal when a co-founder worked in several small factories and witnessed workplace accidents, near-misses, and constant regulatory pressure. MakerComply’s answer to these challenges, the new Free Training Tracker system, is meant to serve heavily-burdened small-to-medium manufacturers with simple-to-use compliance solutions.
