Compliance

Which regulations do you work with?+
Most engagements touch HIPAA, GDPR, SOC 2, state privacy laws (CPRA, CTDPA, etc.), and emerging AI-specific rules such as the EU AI Act. We help you identify which actually apply to you before quoting work.
Do you replace our lawyers?+
No. We work alongside your counsel. Where a matter needs formal legal representation, we refer to independently licensed attorneys and stay in the technical lane.

Engagements

How do engagements usually start?+
With a short scoping call, followed by a written proposal that includes deliverables, timeline, and price. Most clients start with either an AI System Audit or a Regulatory Readiness Review.

General

What does defensible.dev actually do?+

Are you a law firm?+
No. defensible.dev is operated by Compliance First Development, Inc., a consulting and software development company. Nothing on this site is legal advice, and no attorney-client relationship is created by using it.
