Not software. Not consultants. Both, in one subscription.

CMMC spend today is scattered: consultants by the hour, point tools, one off gap assessments, and nobody maintaining any of it. Custodia consolidates all of it into one subscription, the platform, your officer, and the AI, in the Vanta and Drata price class but built only for CMMC Levels 1 and 2. We do not do CMMC for you. We do it with you.

Subscription, nothing scattered
The platform
Levels 1 and 2. One login.

Level 2 already contains the 15 Level 1 safeguards, and your work carries between levels, credit before debt. Nobody starts over, ever.

The officers
A real officer on every account.

A credentialed Custodia Officer is included on every plan: advisory while you build, review before anything is filed, and year round oversight after. Your assessor sees a program somebody actually runs.

The AI
Charlie works. Your AI works too.

Our gov safe AI officer drafts policies and reviews every artifact. Connect your own Claude or CI pipeline through our gateway and it files evidence for you. Nothing is ever auto approved.

The audit itself
Your assessor works in here too.

The Assessment Ready Packet, a read only seat for your C3PAO, objective level findings, and a sealed six year record. The certification does not happen after the platform. It happens on it.

Primes and MSPs
Your whole supply chain, one snapshot.

Primes track their subs with the free flow down console. Subs share a public verified page in every bid. MSPs run their clients on the same rails. The network does the marketing.

The free arsenal
We give the roadmap away.

The eight question CMMC check, the SPRS score quiz, the State of CMMC report, the field guide book, and a blog that answers what consultants charge for. Start free, stay because it works.

the opportunity

The government already buys what you sell.

Every day, federal agencies buy the exact work you already do. The one thing in your way is proving you can handle their information safely. That proof is called CMMC. We make it easy.

the one key

CMMC is easier than it sounds. There are two levels.

Which one you need comes down to a simple question: what kind of information do you handle?

Most businesses · Level 1

You handle FCI

FCI is basic federal contract information, like the emails, orders, and drawings for a job. If you work on federal contracts, you almost certainly handle it. Level 1 is 15 safeguards, you attest to it yourself, and most businesses finish in about 30 days.

Handling sensitive info · Level 2

You handle CUI

CUI is controlled unclassified information, the sensitive stuff marked CUI or covered by DFARS 252.204-7012. Level 2 covers all 110 NIST 800-171 requirements, filed in about 180 days, the 15 Level 1 safeguards inside them. We guide you through your self-assessment or your readiness for a C3PAO.

Custodia is a guided CMMC compliance platform for government contractors. You can optionally connect your Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 account so Custodia automatically collects your access and identity evidence, your user roster, admin roles, and multi-factor status, and maps it to the matching requirements. Custodia reads this data only to build your compliance evidence. It is never sold, never used for advertising, and never used to train AI models. You can revoke access at any time.

how it works

Get compliant in a few clicks, not a few months.

You drive. Charlie, your AI compliance officer, sits beside you and answers any question along the way. Most businesses finish in their first week.

Draw your boundary
01

Draw your boundary

Point to the people, apps, and devices that touch federal info. That is your scope.

Answer in plain English

Charlie asks simple questions, one at a time, and helps you drop in the proof.

Sign, then file in SPRS
03

Sign, then file in SPRS

You sign the affirmation here, but it only becomes real when your senior official posts the score in SPRS, the government system. That filing, not the platform, is the official CMMC record.

our guarantee

We take the risk. You bring the business.

Get compliant, or we stay with you

Most businesses finish in their first week. If your package is not defensible to standard, your officer rebuilds it with you, on our time, until it is.

A prime pushes back, we push back for you

If a prime or contracting officer ever questions your package, a Custodia officer takes over the conversation until it is accepted. We do not hand you off.

Watched all year, every year

Connect Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace and we watch your proof, flag what is going stale, and prep your yearly re filing so it is ready when you are.

the proof

Squared-away shops win the work.

We don’t promise contract wins, nobody honest can. We promise the one thing the platform controls: a defensible package, watched all year, with a real officer behind it.
