You Build Great Code — But You're Still Losing Projects
You build securely — but buyers need more than your word. They need proof. And they need it now.
Start Left is purpose-built for Microsoft development teams who want to prove their secure development practices without slowing down delivery or adding complex tools that burden developers.
Prove Security Practices
Today's clients demand security proof, not just functional code. Most dev teams have zero visibility into security posture at handoff.
Audit-Ready Handoffs
Deliver projects that meet compliance requirements from day one, helping clients prepare for upcoming audits without additional work.
Post-Launch Engagement
Stay connected with clients after delivery without creating additional overhead for your development team.
Competitive Differentiation

Use It Your Way
Deploy when you need it—or leave it active to support long-term client engagement.
