Continuous compliance · founded 2022

Compliance as a byproduct of building well.

Mission Critical builds continuous compliance for software teams in regulated spaces. Instead of a scramble before every audit, the evidence for HIPAA, SOC2, and 21 CFR Part 11 is generated by your pipeline as you ship — so you stay audit-ready and fast.

The problem

Regulated teams are told to pick two of: compliant, fast, sane.

Compliance as a tax

The usual way

  • Evidence assembled by hand in a pre-audit scramble
  • Spreadsheets and screenshots that drift from reality the day they're saved
  • Quality gates bolted on at the end, slowing every release
  • Expensive consultants translating between engineers and auditors
Compliance as a byproduct

The Mission Critical way

  • Evidence generated by the pipeline on every merge and deploy
  • Controls that live in code and stay true because they run
  • Quality shifted left — audit-ready is the default state, not a project
  • A shared source of truth engineers and auditors both trust
How it works

Wire compliance into the flow you already have.

Map controls to code

Translate the requirements that actually apply to you into checks that run in CI — versioned, testable, owned by the team.

Generate evidence on every change

Each merge, deploy, and access change emits the record an auditor needs, captured automatically and time-stamped.

Stay audit-ready by default

The evidence is always current, so an audit is an export — not a quarter of everyone's time.

Built for the regimes that carry real weight
HIPAA · PHI & health data
SOC 2 · Type I & II
21 CFR Part 11 · software validation
CPRA · privacy
Who it's for
Regulated startups — health, clinical, PHI 0→1 teams — get it right before the first audit Scaling teams — that can't afford to slow down for it
Why I built it

At a clinical-trials company I was one of the first engineers, and I designed and built the continuous-compliance system that made 21 CFR Part 11 software validation a byproduct of how we worked — not a tax on it. Thirty engineers released ten times a day inside a fully validated pipeline, and audits stopped being a fire drill.

Mission Critical is that idea as a product: every regulated team deserves to move fast and stay honest with their regulators. Compliance done well is just good engineering, made legible.
