MySDS

What MySDS does

MySDS Inc. is a Canadian Safety Data Sheet (SDS) management software company founded in 2015 by Mike Moellenkamp in Sudbury, Ontario, and now headquartered in Etobicoke, Ontario as a subsidiary of Quadshift Inc. The company operates a cloud-hosted SaaS platform that gives organizations 24/7 web access to their SDS/MSDS libraries, with multi-device support, offline bulk-download capability for remote workers, and search that retrieves hazard information, first aid measures, PPE documentation, and CAS/DIN/NPN numbers within seconds. The differentiator is a full-service delivery model: MySDS's team of trained experts, rather than the customer's own staff, builds, monitors, and adjusts SDS compliance documents on an ongoing basis, addressing WHMIS 2015, GHS, and OSHA requirements across Canadian and U.S. jurisdictions.

The product portfolio has expanded beyond the core SDS management system to include SDS Authoring software and services for chemicals lacking compliant documentation, WHMIS/safety e-learning delivered through a BIS Trainer integration, chemical inventory tools, occupational health and safety audits, and waste manifest services via an SDS Quantum partnership. Pricing is published at less than $5.50 per day under monthly or annual subscriptions with no long-term contract and a 10% price-match guarantee. Go-to-market is sales-led with a direct sales team, inside sales for demos, and a self-serve free trial; marketing relies on content (WHMIS/GHS blog), social channels, and an extensive testimonial library spanning municipalities, utilities, healthcare, construction, transit, government, mining, manufacturing, and education.

The company is privately held, bootstrapped (no disclosed funding rounds), and operates with 11-50 employees. It serves primarily SMB and mid-market customers in North America across 14 listed verticals, with occasional enterprise engagements (e.g., a US utility's Canadian and U.S. divisions). The strategic posture is steady niche consolidation — expanding the EHS compliance surface area around the core SDS library through partnerships and adjacent modules rather than pursuing venture-scale growth, with no disclosed M&A, no AI/ML capabilities, and no public funding or exit signals.
