You Want to Sell Your SaaS Application to the Federal Government? Here's Why You NEED Knox.

So you’ve built a great SaaS product. You’ve found your market fit.
And now you’re eyeing the biggest buyer on the planet:
The United States Federal Government.

Smart move.

But here’s the catch:

The federal government doesn’t just buy functionality.
It buys security, compliance, and trust.

And unless you’ve got millions in the bank, 18–36 months to spare, and a full-time team of compliance engineers…

You need Knox.

The FedRAMP Barrier Is Real

To sell your SaaS to federal agencies, you need FedRAMP authorization.

And here’s what that typically means:

• Finding a sponsor (good luck)
  
  
• Writing a 400-page SSP
  
  
• Mapping your stack to NIST 800-53 line-by-line
  
  
• Hiring consultants to interpret control language
  
  
• Training your engineers to speak audit
  
  
• Waiting 12–36 months
  
  
• Spending $2–3M before you’re even on a contract

Let’s be honest: that’s not a launchpad.
That’s a wall.

What You Need Instead: Knox

Knox Systems was built to eliminate that wall.
