Compliance That Doesn't Break Your Engineering Velocity
Stop pulling engineers off product work for compliance tasks. Chequr integrates into your CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and dev workflow — not against them.
The CTO Problem
Every CTO we talk to describes the same pattern: engineering velocity hits a wall the moment compliance enters the stack. It shouldn't.
Context-switching tax
Your engineers lose ~20% of their week to compliance questionnaires, evidence requests, and security review loops. Every interruption costs 23 minutes of flow. Multiply that by a team of 15 and you lose a full engineer.
Manual evidence
Screenshots of IAM policies. Console exports. CSVs of user lists. Your team didn't sign up to be compliance secretaries — yet every audit, here we are again.
Audit season pain
Three months of calendar time vanishes into audit prep every year. Product roadmaps slip. Engineers burn out. You answer the same questions you answered last year.
How Chequr Helps CTOs
Four capabilities that treat compliance like any other engineering problem: with code, APIs, and automation.
CI/CD Integration
Chequr checks run as part of your pipeline. Fail a PR on control drift, block a deploy on a missing SBOM, catch a misconfig before it hits prod.
- GitHub Actions & GitLab CI
- Policy-as-code
- Deploy-time gating
Infrastructure-as-Code
Controls validated directly against Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi. Chequr reads your IaC and proves compliance from the source of truth — not a screenshot.
- Terraform & CloudFormation
- Kubernetes manifests
- Plan-time policy checks
Developer-Friendly Workflows
Lives in Slack, Jira, and GitHub — not another dashboard engineers have to log into. Findings show up as PRs and tickets, with remediation in context.
- Slack alerts
- Jira auto-tickets
- GitHub PR comments
Auto-Collected Evidence
Continuous evidence from your cloud, SCM, identity, and ticketing tools. No more “can you screenshot this?” — it’s collected, versioned, and timestamped.
- Live API collection
- Immutable audit log
- Zero screenshot requests
What engineers actually see in Chequr
Nothing, most days. Compliance runs in the background of the tools they already use. Here's the full flow.
Chequr auto-runs control checks
Every pull request runs the full control suite. Engineers see pass/fail in the check panel — no context-switch, no separate tool.
Auto-ticket with remediation
A misconfig appears in prod? Chequr opens a Jira ticket, assigns it to the owning service, and drops in the Terraform snippet to fix it.
Engineers do nothing different
Evidence was already collected. Controls were already validated. Auditors self-serve what they need. Your team keeps shipping.
Evidence re-collected automatically
You ship new IaC. Chequr re-evaluates affected controls, re-collects evidence, and updates the audit trail. No re-runs. No batch jobs.
Built for the dev stack
Every integration is a first-class API — no brittle scrapers, no proxy logins. If your team uses it, Chequr speaks it.
- GitHub
- GitLab
- Bitbucket
- Terraform
- Kubernetes
- Pulumi
- AWS
- GCP
- Azure
- Vault
- Datadog
- PagerDuty
“Chequr is the first GRC tool my engineers don't hate. It shows up in our existing tools — Jira, GitHub, Slack — not a new dashboard.”
Ship fast. Stay compliant.
Your engineers shouldn't choose between product velocity and compliance. With Chequr, they don't have to.
