← All comparisonsTamats vs KosmetikOn
An AI-native vertical suite that intends to be the whole back office for an R&D-led cosmetics or fragrance company, not just the formulation tool.
What KosmetikOn says it does
- —KosmetikOn describes itself as “the most vertically integrated, AI-native software suite for the cosmetics, fragrance, and haute cuisine R&D industries, combining PLM, CRM, SRM, ERP, Accounting, and HR in a single platform powered by kAI”.
- —Stated capabilities include formulation management, EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009 compliance, INCI generation, MOS calculation, manufacturing, IFRA compliance automation, olfactive profiling, allergen management and full formulation lifecycle control.
- —The platform states “100,000+ raw material profiles” curated and continuously updated, and specialized AI agents for toxicology and compliance.
- —It names three verticals — cosmetics R&D teams, fragrance houses and perfumers, and “Michelin-level culinary teams” — and states it serves “40+ companies across Europe, North America, North Africa, and Australia”.
- —Positioning itself against generic ERP/PLM, it states that INCI generation and MOS calculation are “Automatic from formulation data” and “Built-in, multi-age-range” where generic systems have them “Not available”, and gives time to value as “Weeks — workflows are built-in” against “12–18 months implementation”.

Where they differ
- Scope of the suite
- TamatsResearch, formulation, compliance screening, sourcing and outreach. Not your ERP, accounting or HR.
- KosmetikOnPLM, CRM, SRM, ERP, Accounting and HR in one platform — a bigger commitment, and a bigger payoff if you actually want to run the company on it.
- Regulatory coverage
- Tamats14 markets and 13 retailer clean standards, each rule linked to its primary source and browsable without an account.
- KosmetikOnEU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009 and IFRA are the frameworks stated.
- Evaluating it
- TamatsPublished price, free tier with one seat and no card, and two indexes that need no account at all.
- KosmetikOnDemo request. Their raw-material corpus is materially larger than anything we publish, and a demo is where you would see it.
Choose KosmetikOn when
- You are a fragrance house or a perfumer — IFRA automation and olfactive profiling are theirs, not ours, and we do not screen against IFRA.
- You want one vendor for PLM, ERP, accounting and HR rather than a research layer over the systems you already run.
- A curated 100,000-profile raw-material corpus is the thing you are buying.
Choose Tamats when
- You sell beyond the EU, or your blocker is a retailer clean standard like Clean at Sephora rather than 1223/2009.
- You want to see the price and try it before a sales conversation, and to check the regulatory index without an account.
- The work is research-heavy — cited literature, ingredient trade-offs, multi-market screening — rather than running the whole company on one system.
