Who is Digital Kosher?

DigitalKosher™ is an experienced systems developer dedicated to serving the kosher food industry with cost-effective and practical information management solutions.
We help companies manage their kosher administrative processes, by offering innovative web-based tools and services that eliminate the paperwork involved.
Our exclusive K-ID™ System permanently links your products and their current kosher certificates, which are archived, updated, and instantly accessible – and can be integrated into any company’s IT system.
Over the past 5 years, we have also developed a certification-management software system, (KCert™), used by several kosher certification agencies in the United States, Canada, Israel, and Australia.

What Is a K-ID?

The K-ID is an exclusively assigned seven-letter code which identifies every kosher certified item that you buy or sell. You can think of K-ID’s as the social security number for an ingredient or finished product – but it’s also a kind of digital passport to DigitalKosher’s comprehensive database of K-ID’s.
With a K-ID in hand, you (or anyone you choose to share it with) can easily access all the publicly available kosher information about that ingredient or product – directly from our website. This includes both the data and the stored image of the latest Kosher Certificate, regardless of which agency issued it.
And that saves you time!
In addition, you can subscribe to a K-ID – or subscribe others to a K-ID – and consequently, receive any alerts and updates automatically from DigitalKosher.

Why should I respond?

To satisfy your customers request for K-IDs.
Your customers have subscribed to DigitalKosher, and they will no longer be filing any paper certificates. They will be using K-IDs instead. (See 'what is a K-ID above.)
In addition, you can also take full advantage of your K-IDs by using them to distribute your certificates to all of your customers, and enjoy the K-ID alerts feature offered by Digital Kosher. (see below or contact us for more details.)

For all of your raw materials, DigitalKosher will continuously provide you with all the updated kosher certificates.
In addition, DigitalKosher also offers:
• Ingredient sourcing (Supplier Search)
• System integration
• Digital archiving (with online accessibility)
• Ongoing compliance with New York’s Kosher regulations.

How should I respond?

For each item that is requesting a K-ID, you can either provide an existing K-ID, or have DigitalKosher provide one to you by sending your current kosher certificate. For detailed response types, see the 'How to respond' tab.
