What does Not Verified mean on a control?

It means no connected source has produced evidence for that control yet. ShipReady does not guess and does not count a missing source as a pass. The control stays visible, marked Not Verified, until real evidence arrives.

Is a readiness score the same as passing an audit?

No. Readiness is an internal indicator of how much of your control set is backed by evidence today. It is not a certification and it does not replace an auditor. It tells you what is done, what is a named gap, and what nobody has checked, so the audit itself has fewer surprises.

Who decides whether a control passes, a person or the AI?

Deterministic evaluators decide. Each verdict traces back to the rule that produced it and the evidence it read. AI helps draft policies and explain findings in plain language, but it never decides whether a control is met.

Can an auditor check the evidence without trusting ShipReady?

Yes. Every artifact is content-hashed, and the exported pack ships a manifest that can be re-verified outside our infrastructure. If a file changed after it was collected, the hash no longer matches and the check fails.

Which frameworks does ShipReady support today?

Compliance features are in beta, and we do not name a framework as supported until it carries acceptance evidence. The guides linked on this page explain the regulations themselves; they are education, not a claim of product coverage.

How much evidence collection is automated?

It depends on which tools you connect. ShipReady tells you which evidence is machine-collected and which still needs a person, rather than quoting a single automation percentage. A control with no connected source reads Not Verified instead of being filled in.

Compliance you can prove.

Security compliance and AI governance on one platform, where every control is backed by live evidence — or clearly marked Not Verified. Evidence you can re-check yourself. No green-dashboard theater.

If we can't verify it, we say so.

Why it matters

Compliance shouldn't be a fire drill that stalls your deals.

For most teams an audit means weeks of manual evidence-gathering, screenshots chased across a dozen tools, and a gap discovered in the room. Meanwhile the enterprise deals that need proof of security sit and wait — compliance becomes the thing standing between you and revenue.

ShipReady collects the evidence continuously, shows you exactly what's left to close, and hands you a readiness pack — spend far less of your team's time, and give buyers and auditors a number they trust.

What makes it different

Six things a green dashboard can't say.

01 · Coverage, not a green wall

Every number shows what it's out of

Each readiness number states its denominator — how many controls were actually checked — and marks the rest Not Verified. A missing source is shown as missing, never quietly counted as a pass.

02 · Deterministic, not black-box

Rules decide compliance; AI only assists

Control verdicts are computed by deterministic evaluators you can trace, not a model's opinion. AI drafts policies and explains findings — it never decides whether a control passes.

03 · Verify without trusting us

Tamper-evident evidence you can re-check

Every artifact is content-hashed into a tamper-evident corpus, and the exported pack ships a manifest an auditor can re-verify outside our infrastructure. Don't take our word for it — reproduce the check.

04 · One platform

Security compliance and AI governance together

Security compliance and AI governance over one canonical control model — so a single verified control satisfies its obligation across every framework it maps to. Compliance features are in beta.

05 · Risk in dollars

Quantified residual exposure, or nothing

Residual risk is expressed as an annualized loss estimate driven by which controls are actually evidenced — and a risk with no priced exposure is shown as Not Verified, never a fabricated $0.

06 · No false autonomy

A clear machine-and-human split

We don't claim a lights-out platform. We tell you which evidence is machine-collected and which needs a human, with a realistic ceiling — because an overstated automation number is the first thing an auditor distrusts.

Before and after

Turn audit prep from a fire drill into a routine.

The old way

Weeks of manual scramble

Someone screenshots dashboards for weeks, evidence is assembled by hand, and a gap surfaces late — often in front of the auditor. The deal waiting on your report slips.

With ShipReady

Readiness you can see, year-round

Evidence collects itself and every control shows its real status — met, or exactly what's left to close. You fix gaps early, walk in with a verifiable pack, and skip the last-minute panic. Weeks of your team's time back, deals unblocked.

Who it's for

Built for people who have to defend the number.

If you're closing deals

Companies that need proof of security

Your biggest deals ask for a security report. See your readiness continuously, with far less of your team's time, and hand buyers a number they actually trust.

If an audit is coming

Teams heading into an assessment

Walk in with a tamper-evident evidence pack and a clear list of what's done and what's left — less back-and-forth with the auditor, and a faster sign-off.

If you build AI

AI-native companies

You need security compliance and AI governance at once. Governing both in one platform — with the same evidence discipline — beats stitching a compliance tool to a separate AI-governance tool. Compliance features are in beta.

Controls behind financial reporting
