Founder Playbook ($27) is the complete step-by-step guide — the 12-month roadmap, SOC 2 and NIST explained plainly, government registration sequence, the 5 founder mistakes, and the SmartSolo case study. It tells you exactly what to do and in what order.

Founders Template ($97) gives you everything in the Playbook plus the actual working documents — the NIST 800-171 scoring workbook, System Security Plan, POA&M tracker, and Security Questionnaire Answer Library. Open them, populate your information, and submit.

Founders Experience ($497) is the complete kit — all 14 documents, all 8 folders, every checklist, every walkthrough, and every registration guide. Everything from NIST scoring to enterprise security packet to JCP registration, structured and ready to use.

All documents are delivered as .docx files (Microsoft Word format), compatible with Word, Google Docs, and Pages. They are fully editable — add your company name, populate your information, and use them immediately. No special software required.

One-time purchase. You pay once and own the files. No subscription, no recurring charge, no expiry. When we release updated versions, existing customers receive updates at no charge.

Instant download. Immediately after payment you will receive an email with a download link. The files are delivered as a ZIP archive containing the complete folder structure. Download, unzip, and you have everything organized and ready to use.

Real experience. Smart Logic AI, Inc. built SmartSolo.ai through the complete compliance stack — SOC 2 Type II (clean opinion, zero exceptions), NIST SP 800-171 score of 102/110 submitted to SPRS, CASA Tier 3 application security assessment, and active SAM.gov registration with CAGE code 17F74. Every document in the kit is the document we built or wish we had when we built it.

The frameworks — NIST SP 800-171, SOC 2, CASA Tier 3 — are stable standards that change infrequently. The registration portals (SAM.gov, PIEE, SPRS) have consistent processes. We update the kit when material changes occur. All customers receive updates at no charge. The current version reflects requirements as of March 2026.

The kit covers NIST SP 800-171, which is the foundation of CMMC Level 2. The 110 controls in the NIST workbook are the same 110 practices assessed under CMMC Level 2. A company that completes the NIST workbook and builds its SSP is well-positioned for CMMC Level 2 certification — the additional CMMC-specific requirements (third-party assessment, Plan of Action acceptance) are documented in the Playbook.

Yes. The Founder Playbook and Founders Template are directly useful for enterprise sales regardless of government pursuit. The Security Questionnaire Answer Library, SSP template, and Security Packet are used in enterprise vendor security reviews — not just government procurement. If you are closing enterprise deals and getting asked for SOC 2 documentation or security questionnaires, the Founders Template pays for itself on the first deal it accelerates.

The Playbook is written for founders — no compliance background required. The working documents (SSP, POA&M, NIST workbook) do require someone with knowledge of your technical environment to populate accurately. That is typically a CTO, security lead, or technical co-founder. The documents are structured to make that process as straightforward as possible — the research and formatting work is already done.

If you have SOC 2 Type II, you are ahead of most. The Founders Template and Founders Experience are still valuable for the government-specific layer — NIST SP 800-171 scoring, SPRS submission, SAM/PIEE/JCP registration, and the government opportunity qualification worksheet. SOC 2 covers enterprise buyers. NIST SP 800-171 and government registration cover DoD and federal buyers. They are complementary, not redundant.
