The infinitive is kontrolloida, and the verb is used to describe actions carried out by multiple subjects. It is transitive in most common uses, taking a direct object such as a situation, a process, or data.

Kontrolloida is a loanword in Finnish, borrowed from Swedish kontrollera (to control, to check), with the noun kontroll referring to control or inspection. The grammar follows standard Finnish verb conjugation for third-person plural present tense, producing the ending -vat or -vät depending on vowel harmony; in kontrolloivat, the stem ends with -oi- and the suffix attaches to yield kontrolloivat.

In usage, kontrolloivat appears in contexts such as administration, security, and quality assurance, where groups or authorities exercise oversight. Examples include viranomaisten kontrolloivat tilannetta (the authorities are controlling the situation) and kaupan valvojat kontrolloivat tuotteen laatua (the shop inspectors monitor the product quality). The verb can also describe ongoing monitoring by organizations, firms, or institutions.
