Scope comparison
Record control versus a machine-connected production platform
| Capability | Soteriaa | WeldEye |
|---|---|---|
| WPS, WPQR and personnel qualifications | WPS/WPQR records and qualification status for a focused workspace | WPS, WPQR, pWPS and welder/operator/inspector qualification modules |
| Expiry and prolongation workflows | Continuity and revalidation due-status workflow | Notifications, certificate prolongation and approval-range features |
| Weld-level quality and heat-input verification | No telemetry, heat-input verification or individual-weld quality capture | Public Quality Management scope includes WPS compliance, heat input and deviation alerts |
| Fleet, mobile and production analysis | No fleet management or machine/mobile production operations | Public modules include Fleet, Production Analysis and ArcVision |
| Evidence and document templates | Document storage, mapped templates and printable records | Document layouts, drawings and cloud library capabilities; verify delivery scope |
Buying decision
Do you need records, or machine-connected quality control?
Soteriaa keeps the record-control job deliberately narrow: the team can see qualified people, deadlines, procedures, documents and evidence without adopting a full welding-production system. WeldEye is the more natural shortlist candidate when live parameters, heat-input/WPS verification, project weld traceability, fleet or floor workflows are requirements.
- Soteriaa price: £199/month or £1,910/year, billed annually, with a 14-day free trial; VAT excluded where applicable.
- WeldEye price: compare current EUR module, user and licence components directly—do not treat cross-currency prices as equivalent.
- Technical boundary: validate instrumentation, supported machine models, standards and integrations with WeldEye.
Qualification status without production telemetry
Soteriaa manages the record and the date; it is not a machine-data platform.
FAQ
Soteriaa vs WeldEye questions
Direct answers about scope and currently published WeldEye pricing.
What does WeldEye publicly charge?
At the September 2026 check, WeldEye listed Welding Procedures at €1,290 yearly (VAT 0%). Its combined Welding Procedures and Personnel Qualifications listing showed €89/month/user plus a €2,990 one-time licence (VAT 0%). Quality Management was quote-based. Prices can change; confirm them with WeldEye. No currency conversion is used here.
Is Soteriaa cheaper than WeldEye?
A direct cheaper claim would be misleading: Soteriaa publishes GBP monthly or annual workspace pricing, while WeldEye's published modules use EUR per-year, per-user and one-time licence components. Match the modules, users, equipment and implementation scope first.
Can Soteriaa verify heat input or capture machine telemetry?
No. Soteriaa does not capture welding-machine telemetry, heat-input data, live weld parameters, individual-weld production traceability, fleet data or mobile production workflows. Those are areas WeldEye publicly addresses in its broader modules.
Can software guarantee that welding is compliant?
No. Soteriaa supports records and follow-up work but does not decide standards compliance, certify work, replace a responsible Welding Coordinator, or guarantee an audit or certification result.
