# Regecurity

*/Startups/Regecurity*

## Startup Overview

This continuous compliance engine scans cloud infrastructure environments and cross-references active configurations directly with regulatory mandates. It maps live deployments against strict compliance frameworks to instantly isolate non-compliant resources without human intervention.

Cloud-native engineering teams lose countless hours to manual readiness spreadsheets and the administrative drag of static compliance checklists. Instead of generating passive warnings for security personnel, the system autonomously applies the necessary configuration changes directly into the deployment pipeline to close compliance gaps.

Incumbent monitoring tools like Vanta, Drata, and Sprinto function primarily as alert-driven dashboards that hand operational homework back to developers. By contrast, this solution operates as an auto-remediating workflow that actively fixes infrastructure drift, aligning its value directly to the business through outcome-based pricing charged exclusively per passed audit.

## Startup Founding Hypothesis

**Approach**: that cross-references cloud infrastructure states with regulatory mandates
**Competitors**:
- [Vanta](/Competitors/Vanta)
- [Drata](/Competitors/Drata)
- [Sprinto](/Competitors/Sprinto)
- [manual readiness spreadsheets](/Competitors/manual_readiness_spreadsheets)
**Differentiator2x2**: auto-remediating rather than just alert-driven, and outcome-priced per passed audit

## Startup Offer

**Proof**:
- Targeting 100% automated control mapping for cloud-native B2B SaaS environments.
- Aiming to reduce engineer-hours spent on compliance remediation to under 10 hours per framework audit.
- Designed to pass strict ISO 27001 technical controls entirely through auto-generated infrastructure-as-code scripts.
**Tiers**:
- Name: Single Audit Resolution · Price: ~$5k–$10k per passed audit · Inclusions: Automated infrastructure cross-referencing, continuous state mapping, and generated remediation pull requests for one regulatory framework (e.g., SOC 2 or HIPAA).
- Name: Multi-Framework Resolution · Price: ~$12k–$20k per combined passed audit · Inclusions: Overlapping evidence collection, unified remediation scripts, and auditor portal access covering up to three simultaneous regulatory frameworks.
**Guarantee**: If Regecurity's auto-remediations fail to satisfy a technical control during your official audit, we will cover the cost of the auditor's re-testing fee and manually provision the required infrastructure changes at no extra charge.
**Business Function**: ProvideService
**Objection Handlers**:
- Objection: Auto-remediation might break our production environment. Rebuttal: Regecurity is designed to issue terraform plans and pull requests for engineering review, never applying state changes directly to production without human approval.
- Objection: Auditors will not accept AI-generated evidence. Rebuttal: The platform is intended to map native cloud logs and configurations to controls, providing raw, verifiable infrastructure evidence rather than AI-hallucinated summaries.
- Objection: We already use Vanta or Drata for compliance. Rebuttal: Vanta tells you what is broken and generates alerts; Regecurity writes the code to fix the alerts and charges only when the audit successfully closes.

## Startup Buyer Chain

**Chain**: B2B: Startup → Head of Engineering → External Compliance Auditor
**Gtm Motion**: Acquires engineering teams facing urgent regulatory deadlines by offering infrastructure scans priced solely on successful audit completion. Expands revenue by upselling additional compliance frameworks (such as transitioning from SOC2 to ISO27001) as the customer targets new enterprise markets.
**Agent Channel**: Would target listing in the LangChain tool registry and the OpenAI schema directory, enabling autonomous DevSecOps agents to discover its compliance-checking endpoints and trigger auto-remediation scripts.
**Primary Channel**: AWS Marketplace and Google Cloud Marketplace searches where infrastructure managers actively look for automated compliance readiness and cloud security posture tools.

## Startup Proof Points

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

**Pilot Goals**:
- A 30-day single-framework (SOC 2) readiness pilot targeting a 100% clearance rate of existing infrastructure alerts by merging Regecurity's generated pull requests.
- A 60-day dual-framework (SOC 2 + HIPAA) pilot designed to test overlapping evidence collection, aiming to prove that a single unified remediation script satisfies the technical controls for both frameworks without duplicate engineering work.
**Target Metrics**:
- Target: <10 hours of engineer time spent reviewing and approving compliance-related pull requests per framework audit.
- Aim: 100% automated technical control mapping for AWS and GCP cloud-native environments.
- Target: 0 auditor re-testing fees incurred due to failed technical infrastructure controls.
- Aim: 90% reduction in manual Terraform state changes required to satisfy SOC 2 and ISO 27001 requirements.
**Target Case Studies**:
- A Series A B2B SaaS startup (CTO) facing their first SOC 2 Type II audit, proving a transformation from hundreds of failing compliance alerts to a clean audit report using only auto-generated Terraform PRs, without pulling product engineers off roadmap features.
- A Mid-market Healthtech company (Director of DevOps) needing simultaneous HIPAA and SOC 2 audits, demonstrating the resolution of overlapping technical controls through a single set of unified remediation scripts and passing both audits simultaneously.
- A Cloud-native FinTech scaling to Europe (Head of Security), validating the ability to achieve ISO 27001 readiness entirely through infrastructure-as-code scripts generated by Regecurity, eliminating manual AWS configuration changes.
**Testimonial Targets**:
- VP of Engineering: Sentiment confirming that Regecurity wrote the actual code fixes for failing controls, requiring only PR review, which protected the product roadmap from compliance-related delays.
- Lead DevOps Engineer: Sentiment validating that the auto-generated Terraform plans integrated cleanly into existing infrastructure state, preventing the need to manually untangle cloud configurations for the auditor.
- Chief Information Security Officer (CISO): Sentiment emphasizing that the usage-metered pricing (paying per passed audit) perfectly aligned incentives and that the guarantee provided total confidence in the remediation scripts.

## Startup Top Risks

- Severity: high · Description: Third-party audit firms refuse to accept automated remediation logs as valid evidence for compliance certifications. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: high · Description: The outcome-based pricing model drains cash reserves if clients fail audits due to out-of-scope manual operational failures. · Mitigation Status: unmitigated
- Severity: moderate · Description: Cloud providers deprecate or alter infrastructure APIs, temporarily breaking remediation workflows. · Mitigation Status: in-progress

## Startup Story Brand

**Hero**:
- **Need**: to be the architecture leader scaling product, not the Jira-ticket-compliance-fixer
- **Want**: to clear mandatory compliance audits without draining months of sprint capacity
- **Identity**: the Head of Engineering at a cloud-native B2B SaaS
**Plan**:
- Step: Review · Detail: Examine the auto-generated remediation pull requests that map directly to your pending audit gaps.
- Step: Approve · Detail: Merge the provided infrastructure-as-code scripts to instantly satisfy technical controls across your stack.

**Guide**:
- **Empathy**: Productivity and momentum are won in the sprint cycle — but compliance alerts from Sprinto or spreadsheets often kill it.
**Problem**:
- **Villain**: alert fatigue
- **External**: Vanta and Drata flag hundreds of non-compliant cloud configurations across AWS and GCP, leaving engineers to manually write remediation code for every Jira ticket.
- **Internal**: You feel like your high-output engineering team has been downgraded into a compliance cleanup crew.
- **Philosophical**: Every engineering lead deserves to ship features — not fix the same SOC 2 IAM permissions over and over.
**Success**: Your SOC 2 or HIPAA audit passes with under ten hours of engineering time, paid for only when the audit is won.
**One Liner**: Every audit cycle, engineering heads drown in compliance Jira tickets. Regecurity auto-remediates infrastructure gaps so you pass your audit with zero manual cleanup.
**Positioning**:
- **So That**: pass audits using auto-generated remediation code rather than manual cleanup
- **Unlike**: alert-driven tools like Vanta or Drata
- **For Whom**: Heads of Engineering at B2B SaaS
- **Category**: Auto-remediating compliance for SaaS
**Call To Action**:
