PolicyForge
Meet your cybersecurity compliance deadline. Answer 15–20 questions about your technology stack and controls. Get framework-aligned security policies ready for audit submission in minutes instead of weeks. No $5k–$15k consulting fees. No weeks of discovery meetings.
Typical scenario: Insurance renewal deadline is Feb 1. You have 17 days. Consulting would take 3–4 weeks. PolicyForge generates policies in 1 day.
The Problem
You run a 20–50 person company in a regulated industry—healthcare, fintech, SaaS, or something else that handles sensitive data. Your insurance renewal is in 17 days. Or you just received a compliance audit notice with 60–90 days to respond.
You need documented cybersecurity policies. Not templates. Not generic PDFs. Policies that reference your actual technology stack, describe your actual controls, and satisfy your chosen compliance framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, NIST, CMMC).
Your options today:
- Hire a consultant: $5k–$15k. 2–3 weeks of discovery meetings. Takes you away from product and growth. Deadline risk: you miss Feb 1.
- Download a template: Free or $99. Totally generic. Auditor asks "You use Okta for access control?" You say yes. Auditor asks "Why isn't it in your policy?" You realize your template never mentioned it. Now you're rewriting policies two weeks before the deadline.
- Use ChatGPT: Free. But you have no way to know if the policies are actually compliant. Did it hit all the SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria? Did it miss something critical? You submit, auditor finds gaps, you have 2 weeks to fix it.
The root problem: You know your tech stack. You know your controls. But translating that into framework-compliant policies requires expertise that you don't have, can't afford to hire quickly, and is too risky to DIY with ChatGPT.
The Solution
PolicyForge transforms your technology stack into compliant cybersecurity policies in one day.
Answer the interview
PolicyForge asks 15–20 conversational questions about your organization: industry, team size, technology stack (which cloud providers do you use? how do you manage access?), data types you handle, security controls you've already implemented, and which compliance framework you need to meet.
Time investment: 15–20 minutes. No expertise required—just describe your actual setup.
PolicyForge generates your policies
PolicyForge maps your interview responses to your chosen framework and generates complete policy documents: Incident Response, Access Control, Data Classification, Security Awareness, Vendor Management, etc.
Time investment: 1–2 minutes (automated). Policies are organization-specific, not generic templates. If you said you use Okta, the policy cites Okta. If you use GitHub for code review, the policy reflects that.
Review and export
Read through the policies. Make any edits (add company name, adjust language if needed). Export as PDF or Word. Submit directly to your auditor, insurance carrier, or customers.
Time investment: 30–60 minutes (you, reviewing). Policies are audit-ready out of the box.
Stay current with annual refresh
At 6-month intervals, PolicyForge reminds you to review and refresh your policies. Changed your tech stack? Added new controls? Re-run the interview (takes 10 minutes) and regenerate. Policies stay current. No consultant needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know the policies are actually compliant?
PolicyForge is built on framework requirements, not generic templates. Every policy generated is traced back to specific framework control requirements (SOC 2 Trust Service Criteria, NIST CSF, ISO 27001:2022, HIPAA rules, etc.). Policies are reviewed and validated against real auditor checklists. Before public launch, we're submitting generated policies to 2–3 real auditors to measure acceptance rate (target: <10% rework requests).
What if my insurance carrier or auditor rejects the policies?
We don't guarantee acceptance (auditor decisions are ultimately their call), but our goal is <10% rework rate. If there are rework requests, the requested changes are usually small (add more detail here, clarify that section, add a date). You'll have time to fix before your deadline. If you want a validation call with our team to discuss specific auditor feedback, we're available during beta.
Do the policies need legal review before submission?
PolicyForge policies are cybersecurity control documents, not legal contracts. They don't require legal review before auditor submission. That said, you should always review your own policies before submission (not just for compliance, but to ensure they're accurate). Most customers spend 30–60 minutes reviewing.
Which frameworks does PolicyForge support?
At launch: SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, HIPAA. Post-launch roadmap: NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CMMC, PCI DSS, GDPR, others. If your framework is not listed, reach out—we may add it to the roadmap.
What if I don't know the answers to the interview questions?
PolicyForge asks questions about YOUR tech stack and controls—things you already know about. We've designed the interview to be conversational and clear. If a question doesn't apply (e.g., "Do you use encryption in transit?" and you haven't implemented that yet), you can skip or answer "not yet." The system adapts.
Can I edit the policies after they're generated?
Yes. You can edit policies before exporting. Edits are tracked in the Word/PDF version. We also support re-generating if you realize you answered an interview question incorrectly.
What happens after the insurance renewal deadline passes?
Your policies are stored in your PolicyForge account. At 6-month intervals, PolicyForge reminds you to review and refresh (especially if you've changed your tech stack or controls). If you've made changes, you can re-run the interview (10 minutes) and regenerate updated policies. This prepares you for your next annual audit or insurance renewal.
When will PolicyForge launch?
Currently in pre-beta validation phase (validating assumptions with real auditors and customers). Expected launch: Q3 2025. Waitlist members will get early access and founding member pricing.
Is there a free trial?
