The system is a set of structured files. You upload them to your own Claude account, type START, and it interviews you about your organisation, one question at a time. It is built to take a person who has never read the standard to a completed, cited compliance report: the training module teaches the standard first, the working files collect the evidence it asks for and record what is in place and what is missing, and your documentation is produced with clause citations.

No consultant, no sales call, no per-seat pricing, no platform you are locked into. A one-time purchase you keep, completed without hiring anyone.
