## Startup Overview

This platform automatically maps infrastructure configurations directly to regulatory control frameworks. It connects to cloud environments, reads the underlying infrastructure-as-code, and translates technical settings into verifiable compliance evidence. Engineers deploy code, and the system immediately verifies the architecture against mandatory security and privacy standards.

Security and engineering teams waste weeks translating technical reality into manual audit spreadsheets. Every new cloud deployment risks breaking the current compliance posture, demanding constant manual evidence collection to satisfy external auditors. Instead of chasing screenshots and log files, engineering teams maintain continuous proof of compliance tied directly to their codebase.

General-purpose compliance platforms rely on periodic checks and disconnected workflows that sit outside the engineering lifecycle. By taking a developer-first approach to integration, this system continuously attests to infrastructure states for real-time compliance. This eliminates the persistent gap between technical reality and audit requirements, replacing outdated tracking tools with an active control mechanism.

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Target: Mid-market SaaS provider passes SOC 2 Type II audit with zero infrastructure exceptions.
- Target: DevOps team reduces quarterly evidence collection time from 3 weeks to under 4 hours.
- Target: Fintech startup achieves continuous 100% mapping of AWS infrastructure to PCI-DSS controls.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Single Framework · Price: ~$800–$1,500/mo · Inclusions: Continuous mapping for 1 regulatory standard (e.g., SOC 2), up to 3 cloud environments, and automated evidence collection for standard managed services.
- Name: Multi-Standard · Price: ~$2,000–$3,500/mo · Inclusions: Up to 3 concurrent frameworks (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA), up to 10 cloud environments, and custom control mapping overrides.
- Name: Enterprise Attestation · Price: enterprise: ~$30k–$50k/yr · Inclusions: Unlimited frameworks, unlimited cloud environments, designed to integrate with custom internal infrastructure platforms, and dedicated mapping support.
**Guarantee**: If a supported regulatory framework update causes an inaccurate compliance flag in your mapped infrastructure, Compiotech credits that month's subscription fee and updates the mapping logic within 48 hours.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Will this slow down our CI/CD pipelines? The service is designed to read state asynchronously from cloud provider APIs, never blocking or throttling your deployment path.
- How do we know the mapping is accurate for our specific auditor? Mappings align with standard AICPA and ISO criteria, and you can manually override any default control mapping to match your auditor's specific interpretation.
- We already use a compliance platform, why switch? Legacy platforms require manual evidence uploads for complex infrastructure; this is designed to continuously read your infrastructure-as-code state for zero-touch attestation.
- What if we use custom internal infrastructure? The Enterprise tier is intended to support custom API webhooks, allowing you to map proprietary internal tools to standard regulatory controls.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: B2B → DevOps Engineers → Compliance Teams → External Auditors
**Gtm Motion**: Acquires initial users through bottom-up adoption by DevOps engineers using a self-serve infrastructure mapping tool, then expands to enterprise-wide contracts when compliance and security teams require automated control reporting and audit-ready evidence exports.
**Agent Channel**: Designed to list in the OpenAI Actions registry and LangChain tool ecosystem as a structured compliance API, intended to allow infrastructure AI agents to query the real-time regulatory status of specific cloud resources.
**Primary Channel**: DevOps engineers searching the AWS Marketplace and Terraform Registry for infrastructure-as-code security scanners and automated compliance modules.

## Startup Proof Points

_Illustrative — target and order-of-magnitude estimate figures, not an achieved track record (this Thing is concept-stage)._

**Pilot Goals**:
- 30-day single-framework pilot for a mid-market software company: connects up to 3 cloud environments to continuously map SOC 2 controls, aiming to generate a complete evidence baseline automatically.
- 60-day multi-standard pilot for an enterprise organization: integrates custom internal infrastructure platforms via webhooks to prove the system maps proprietary tools to HIPAA and ISO 27001 controls concurrently without manual intervention.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: 3 weeks to under 4 hours of quarterly evidence collection time.
- Target: Zero infrastructure exceptions flagged during annual Type II compliance audits.
- Target: 100 percent continuous mapping coverage of managed cloud environments to baseline regulatory controls.
- Aim: 48-hour turnaround to update mapping logic following an official regulatory framework change.
**Target Case Studies**:
- Mid-market SaaS provider (VP Engineering): Passes SOC 2 Type II audit with zero manual infrastructure evidence uploads by relying on asynchronous cloud provider API reads.
- Series B Fintech startup (CISO): Achieves continuous 100 percent mapping of AWS infrastructure to PCI-DSS controls without throttling deployment paths.
- Enterprise Healthtech (Compliance Director): Integrates proprietary internal infrastructure platforms with custom API webhooks to concurrently map controls to SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA frameworks.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- VP of Engineering: praises the asynchronous cloud provider API integration for gathering compliance evidence without blocking or throttling CI/CD deployment pipelines.
- Head of Compliance: confirms the default mapping aligns with standard AICPA criteria while highlighting the ease of manually overriding default mappings to satisfy their specific auditor.
- DevOps Lead: expresses relief at dropping legacy manual-upload platforms in favor of zero-touch attestation directly from infrastructure state.

## Startup Top Risks

**Risks**:
- Severity: existential · Description: Major cloud providers deprecate or heavily rate-limit the configuration read APIs required for continuous real-time attestation. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: Traditional auditing firms refuse to accept automated, real-time infrastructure mappings in place of point-in-time manual sampling for official certifications. · Mitigation Status: in-progress
- Severity: high · Description: Incumbents like Vanta or Drata acquire or build deep infrastructure-as-code integrations, eroding the primary developer-first differentiator. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: moderate · Description: Frequent updates to underlying regulatory frameworks require continuous manual mapping adjustments, creating an unsustainable engineering maintenance burden. · Mitigation Status: in-progress

**Success**: Your infrastructure stays 100% audit-ready in real-time, reducing quarterly evidence collection from three weeks to four hours.
**One Liner**: Every quarter, engineering leads waste weeks on manual audit evidence. Compiotech maps cloud infrastructure to regulatory controls so SaaS providers maintain continuous, zero-touch attestation.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: achieve real-time compliance built directly from infrastructure code
- **Unlike**: Vanta or manual audit spreadsheets
- **For Whom**: Engineering leads at mid-market SaaS providers
- **Category**: Continuous Compliance Attestation Platform
**Call To Action**:
- **Direct**: Map your infrastructure
- **Transitional**: View the mapping logic
**Failure Stakes**:
- Losing a month of engineering time
- Missing enterprise sales due to expired SOC 2
- Failing an audit because of configuration drift
