Why Certus

The trust layer for AI-built software

ChromaFlow builds code at AI speed. Certus proves every line is reliable, compliant, and auditor-ready.

Step 1

Ticket sparks the work

Linear, Jira, or GitHub Issues trigger the flow. Teams stay inside their current backlog; no new tooling habits required.

Example tickets: “Add MFA requirement to login flow” or “Capture audit log for password resets.”

Step 2

ChromaFlow plans + builds

Agentic SDLC engine turns the ticket into a deterministic plan, generates the code, and writes tests in seconds.

Builder mode handles backend, frontend, infra, and tests using your blueprint library.

Step 3

Certus becomes the gatekeeper

Incoming PRs run through automated governance: unit tests, Semgrep SAST, Syft SBOM, Grype CVEs, license checks, secrets scans, and policy gates.

Failures block merges, annotate PRs, and log violations automatically.

Step 4

Evidence Pack is minted

Certus signs an Evidence Pack for every PR: authorship, tests, SBOM, vulnerabilities, compliance mappings, reviewer signatures, and timestamps.

Exports to JSON + PDF so auditors and machines consume the same truth.

Step 5

Merge unblocks with proof

When gates are green, Certus marks the PR safe. Reviewers, auditors, and execs see exactly what ran and why it passed.

Certus is not just checks—it is authority plus evidence.

Step 6

Artifacts sync everywhere

Evidence pushes to Vanta, Drata, Notion, Splunk, Datadog, or your data lake. Compliance reporting stays in lockstep with engineering.

Ticket → Build → Verify → Merge → Evidence → Compliance system.

Dynamic loop

ChromaFlow → Certus

The loop is simple: Ticket → Build → Verify → Merge → Evidence → Compliance. Every stage emits structured telemetry and cryptographic proof.
