Projects

1. Veridex

Veridex preserves audit evidence as immutable, review-ready records across audit cycles. Veridex is an evidence-first audit platform designed to bring structure, traceability, and permanence to compliance workflows. Instead of layering complexity onto regulations, Veridex focuses on what auditors ultimately require: complete, attributable, and verifiable proof. At its core, Veridex provides a secure system of record for audit evidence. Every artifact — whether a document, report, log, screenshot, or attestation — is stored with full version history, timestamps, and ownership metadata. Nothing is silently edited. Nothing is overwritten. Every change is preserved. By structuring evidence around audit cycles and maintaining append-only history, Veridex ensures that organizations can: • Track evidence requests and ownership clearly • Preserve complete version history • Reuse and reference prior audit artifacts • Generate consistent, auditor-ready exports • Maintain defensible records over time Veridex is regulation-agnostic by design. It does not attempt to interpret compliance frameworks or enforce policy logic. Instead, it provides a durable foundation for audit proof — adaptable across industries and evolving regulatory requirements. Built on the principle that trust comes from integrity and history, Veridex helps organizations approach audits with confidence, consistency, and control.
