FlinkISO
FlinkISO is open-source quality management software for handling documents, forms, workflows and QMS records. It supports ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and ISO 13485, with other standards configurable. Document tools include search, retrieval, version control, access restrictions and approval workflows. Users can make HTML forms with drag-and-drop fields, validations, layouts and business rules without coding. Modules cover audits, change control, management reviews, complaints, nonconformities, corrective actions, training, equipment records and calibration. FlinkISO integrates with ONLYOFFICE for document editing and approval, and can connect to cloud OpenAI-compatible providers or self-hosted Ollama for chat and form-building workflows. Install it on Linux or Windows servers, or use the hosted edition. The Free On-Premise plan is free, with no expiry and all QMS modules. On-Cloud QMS and Form Creation API each cost $80 a month; hosted file uploads are limited to 25 MB each. The Startup Plan is $750 as a one-time purchase for a three-month plan.
