Your prime says the part is controlled — now you're on the hook for the same export laws as Lockheed. DepChain reads your drawings and BOMs, tells you exactly which rules apply to each part, and keeps controlled data out of the wrong hands and the wrong tools.
Built by a sourcing engineer who's qualified shops like yours for a decade.
Bay Area shops get early access first. No spam, ever.
Thanks — I'll be in touch personally. Watch for an email from jordan@depchain.io.
When a prime wins a defense contract, it must "flow down" the government's export rules to everyone who touches the work. So the shop making the part inherits obligations written for companies with whole legal departments — and the penalties are real.
The AI angle barely existed two years ago, and nobody is watching it. DepChain turns this from a stack of PDFs and guesswork into a clear, defensible call — with the reasoning shown and the controlling regulation cited every time.
One loop, built for a non-expert under pressure. Every consequential call is a draft a human confirms — DepChain assists, it doesn't adjudicate.
Ingest the drawings, specs, and BOM and determine each part's export jurisdiction and code — with the reasoning shown and the controlling regulation cited. What it can't read, it flags instead of guessing.
Track who and what touches controlled data and flag exposure the moment it happens — a foreign-person login, a non-US cloud service, or a controlled file sent to a general-purpose AI tool.
Produce the Technology Control Plan your customer requires and keep an immutable, hash-chained audit trail of every access and every determination — the proof, not just the policy.
Targeted revisions to the U.S. Munitions List took effect September 2025 — shifting what's controlled and how.
Cybersecurity requirements are rolling out across defense contracts through November 2026 — and flowing down to suppliers.
Engineers paste controlled drawings into AI assistants without a second thought. No one sells the fix — until now.
Supplier-development teams are forcing these requirements down the chain and want their shops compliant fast.
We're onboarding a first group of Bay Area shops on synthetic data now, and real technical data packages in a controlled environment next. Join the waitlist or grab a quick call.
