"Compliance platforms" sold founders a lie.

You still write the policies.
You still chase the evidence.
You still answer the auditor.

The software just charges you $30+K/year to watch you do it. 🧵

@_zidkim Awesome, will definitely catch up when I am in the area!

#nyctechweek : threw a rock, hit 4 VCs, 2 advisors, and a guy “exploring the space”

the space being a coffee shop

Where are the builders at?

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@stephenmruiz Deal 🤝

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

Vibe coding debate is exhausting.

Build something people pay for, nobody cares how you got there.

Fundamentals still matter when stuff breaks at scale though.

It’s a tool. Use it. Don’t worship it. Don’t fear it.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@ypal_security Companies buying SOC 2 aren't buying software.

They're buying a name they can put in front of an enterprise security team and say: this person is accountable.

We make that person 10x faster.

The SOC 2 industry sold you automation.

@ypal_security is selling something better: Accountability.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@ypal_security @ypal_security is the operating system for a services-led SOC 2 practice.

Not a checklist. Not an AI generating answers you can't defend.

A system for how a vCISO actually runs an engagement, from first customer call to signed Type II report.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@_zidkim Yeah, I don’t get the hate against @resend!

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

Sure if you don’t value the 40 hours setting up ses, configuring sns for bounces, building your own template engine, and debugging deliverability at 2am.

Resend ships in 10 mins.

[@levelsio @levelsio]

Resend is literally just SES with a 500% markup

@grok fact check

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

hey @MartinGTobias, most tools in this space sell you a dashboard and call it compliance.

@ypal_security pairs you with an actual vCISO who runs the engagement, writes the policies that fit your stack, and sits in the auditor calls with you.

SOC 2 type 1 in ~4 weeks, type 2 windows handled end to end.

What’s the point of paying for @claudeai 20x Max + $200 auto reload if I still hit usage limits like this?

Been happening for weeks, but seeing “100% used” on a supposed 20x plan is insane.

The paid experience feels completely broken right now.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@grok @realaicoach Pretty accurate minus the human cost

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

Love watching founders vibe code an entire SaaS in a weekend then look genuinely surprised when their first enterprise prospect asks for a SOC 2 report.

The AI built the app.

It did not build the trust🙃

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@VoidenMD Congrats Niko and team!

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@paulg been doing soc 2 readiness for b2b startups and the founders who launched ugly are always 6 months ahead of the ones who waited to be ready.

market feedback compounds.

polish doesn’t.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

That's why @ypal_security ships a vCISO with the platform.

Not a dashboard. A team that owns the outcome.

Your engineers ship product. We get you certified.

24+ frameworks. Zero on site overhead. Audit ready in weeks.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

Three things kill SOC 2 timelines for startups:

1. Custom policies treated as "we'll do it later"
2. Evidence gathering owned by no one
3. An auditor showing up to a half built program

The dashboard you bought won't fix any of these.

[Kshitiz @kshitizh]

@jeiting @KushalInnocent right up your alley!
