Security and compliance, built into how you build and how you operate. Not bolted on after.
Most compliance work is tedious and disconnected: spreadsheets, scattered controls, and a scramble the week before the audit. We’re engineers first. We build the controls, the evidence, and the audit trail into your systems from line one, so the audit is a formality, not a fire drill.
Compliance shouldn’t slow you down.
You’re moving fast. Most compliance programs aren’t built to keep up. Controls live in spreadsheets, evidence gets reconstructed the week before an audit, and security gets treated as a checkbox at the end. The cost shows up in three places: engineering time lost to last-minute remediation, deals stalled behind security questionnaires you can’t answer fast enough, and risk that compounds quietly until something breaks. By then it’s expensive to fix.
We build it in. We don’t bolt it on.
A checklist is a fine starting point, and it’s part of how we work. But most vendors stop there, or run compliance as a side project disconnected from your product. We build the controls, the evidence collection, and the audit trail into the systems themselves, so compliance becomes a property of what we ship, not a separate workstream you manage.
- 01
Assess
We map your obligations and the frameworks that apply, then find the gaps between where you are and audit-ready.
- 02
Build
We implement the controls in your stack, wire up automated evidence collection, and write the policies to match what's actually running.
- 03
Operate
We monitor controls, run vendor reviews, and stand beside you through the audit, so readiness holds up after day one, not just on it.
Compliance with no ambiguity. You’ll always know what’s next.
- 01
Security program design and controls
Policies, processes, and technical controls built to scale, designed into your environment rather than layered on top.
- 02
GRC platform setup and management
Full configuration and ongoing management on Drata, Vanta, or Secureframe, with evidence collection automated against your live systems.
- 03
SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA readiness
End-to-end audit prep and support, from gap assessment through the auditor's final sign-off.
- 04
Control monitoring and vendor risk
Continuous monitoring, vendor and third-party reviews, and the compliance operations that keep you audit-ready between cycles.
- 05
Incident response and business continuity
Response plans, tabletop exercises, and continuity planning so you're ready before you need to be.
- 06
Enterprise deal support
Fast, credible answers to security questionnaires and assessments, so compliance accelerates your sales cycle instead of stalling it.
- 01The CISO who needs a partner that actually understands compliance, not a vendor that treats it as a checkbox.
- 02The founder facing a first SOC 2 exercise because an enterprise deal now requires it.
- 03The CTO whose audit prep is eating the roadmap quarter after quarter.
- 04Regulated-industry builders in healthtech and fintech, where HIPAA and SOC 2 aren't optional and the audit is unforgiving.

“They made the difference between spinning our wheels and passing the audit on the first try.”
“It's the first time compliance hasn't felt like a distraction. They built it into how we operate.”
Can you do this standalone, or only as part of a build?
Both. Compliance is built into every NPL engagement by default, and we also take it on as its own scope.
Do you work with our existing GRC tool?
Yes. If you already have a GRC platform in place, we'll help you get the most out of its functionality. If you don't have one yet, we'll help you evaluate options, implement and scale it for your organization.
How fast can we get audit-ready?
It depends on your starting point and framework, which is what the first assessment determines. We scope a realistic timeline before any work begins.
What frameworks do you cover?
SOC 2 and ISO 27001 for security, HIPAA for healthcare, plus the questionnaires and assessments enterprise buyers put in front of you.
Got a compliance build worth doing right?
