No demo and no sales call: sign up, connect your AI, start working¶
Somewhere in the history of enterprise software, "book a demo" turned from a courtesy into a gate. The button is the same on every compliance vendor's site, and behind it is the same sequence: a qualification call, a scripted walkthrough of someone else's tenant, a quote that depends on how the call went, and an onboarding plan measured in weeks. For a 50-person company with an audit in four months, that sequence costs more than the license.
We decided early that Kanonik would not have one. The buyer we build for is a security or engineering lead at a fintech or healthtech company who already knows what they need, and that person wants to see if the thing works, not to be sold to.
What self-serve means here¶
You sign up. The trial asks for a card, and we say so plainly because we would rather lose the sign-up than surprise anyone with a charge.
You connect your AI. You paste your workspace link into the client you already use, sign in once, and your model can see Kanonik as a set of tools over the Model Context Protocol. Once connected, your workspace loads our signed skill library, so the model knows how to do compliance work rather than just how to answer questions about it.
Then you ask it to do something real. Find the risks that are actually ours. Draft the access control policy against what is deployed. Map our controls to ISO 27001:2022. The model reads your environment through its own connections, proposes the records, and our verifier grades each one before it can land. You get a single-use approval link, you read the proposal and the verdict, and you click. That click is the first entry in a hash-chained record that will still verify when your auditor opens it next year.
First drafts arrive the day you connect your AI.
Why there is no sales team¶
A product that needs a person to explain it is a product that has not finished explaining itself. Removing the sales call forced us to make the setup page, the approval page and the dashboard say what they mean, because there is no one downstream to fix a confusing screen with a phone call.
Support is asynchronous for the same reason. When something is unclear, we fix the surface that was unclear, and every customer after you benefits from it. A live demo hides those problems behind a presenter who knows where the rough edges are.
The trial, in one paragraph¶
Fourteen days, on Starter, with a card at sign-up. The trial converts to monthly unless you choose yearly, a reminder goes out 7 days before the first charge, and there is one trial per organization. The trial workspace is an ordinary workspace: the same verifier, the same approval gate, the same record, so what you evaluate is what you keep, and there is no sales call at the end of it either.
Starter is $3,000 a year or $300 a month, and starts with a 14-day trial (card required, one trial per organization). Audit-Ready is $6,000 a year with one audited framework of your choice: SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA. Enterprise starts at $18,000 a year. Another audited framework is $3,000 a year. Users are unlimited, and the plans as listed are for organizations up to 200 people. Your compliance work runs on the AI you already pay for, so we don't charge you for one. No per-user fees, no per-questionnaire fees. Your own AI subscription is separate.
The most useful security review of a compliance tool is running it against your own environment for a week. That is the week we are asking for.
Kanonik is security compliance software: one record for your questionnaires, audits and live assurance. See the plans, then start your 14-day trial.
