Knox raises $6.5M to fast-track FedRAMP authorization and bring AI to U.S. government agencies
Summary
Knox raised $6.5 million in seed funding to speed up FedRAMP authorization for SaaS vendors serving U.S. government agencies. The company says its platform can cut approval timelines from years to about 90 days by combining automation, pre-cleared infrastructure, and digital expert agents. Knox already supports more than 15 agencies, including DHS, Treasury, and the Marines, and its KnoxAI system handles real-time compliance and security across major cloud providers. The funding will help Knox expand access to its FedRAMP-approved platform and bring more AI-enabled software into the public sector.
