Cenverity
AI-powered CMMC compliance platform that helps U.S. defense contractors reach assessment readiness in weeks, not months
By Cenverity · HQ Columbia, United States · 4.0/5 Value-Position score (estimate)
Positioning guardrails
Best for
- Small and mid-size U.S. defense contractors that must reach CMMC Level 1 or Level 2 without hiring a $50k–$200k consultant
- Teams that need automated policy, SSP and POA&M documentation plus a centralized, version-controlled evidence vault
- DoD subcontractors that must present assessment-ready documentation to a C3PAO
- MSPs and CMMC consultants managing compliance across several client organizations
- Organizations that want 24/7 AI guidance instead of hourly-billed human advisers
Ideal size: 1–200 employees (enterprise tier 200+) people · U.S. defense contractor with CUI/FCI obligations and little or no dedicated compliance staff
Not for
- Non-U.S. organizations — the vendor stores and processes data only in AWS U.S. regions unless the customer specifically requests otherwise
- Buyers needing a general-purpose GRC platform or ISO 27001 / FedRAMP certification rather than CMMC and NIST SP 800-171 tooling
- Buyers who expect Cenverity itself to issue a CMMC certification; a C3PAO performs the assessment
- Commercial businesses with no FCI or CUI and no DoD contract exposure

Bottom line
Cenverity is an AI-assisted CMMC compliance platform from TandT LLC aimed at U.S. defense contractors.

It is SOC 2 Type II certified and hosted in U.S. AWS regions.
Frequently asked questions
How long until we see value from Cenverity?
Cenverity's own guidance is 2–4 weeks to prepare for a CMMC Level 1 self-assessment and 3–6 months for Level 2, against 6–12+ months with traditional consulting. Gap analysis, policy generation and evidence collection start producing output within the first days of a subscription, and a 3-day free trial lets you test that before paying.
What does Cenverity cost, and are there mandatory implementation fees?
Published plans are $79/month (Starter, annual billing), $149/month (Growth) and $299/month (Professional), plus a custom Enterprise tier; there is no mandatory implementation fee. Optional services include a $500 gap assessment, $1,500 policy development and a $5,000 Done-For-You package. Add-ons cover extra users ($15/user/month), storage ($10/10GB), AI queries ($25/100) and client slots ($49/client/month).
Does Cenverity replace our CMMC consultant or our C3PAO assessment?
It can cut or eliminate consultant spend by automating gap analysis, policy and SSP generation and evidence collection, but it does not perform the assessment: Level 2 certification still requires a C3PAO. The vendor sells optional Done-For-You services ($2,000+ per its homepage, with a $5,000 package on the pricing page) for hands-on help.
Is Cenverity secure, and where is our data stored?
The security page states SOC 2 Type II certification, GDPR compliance, AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit and AWS US East/West hosting; data is not transferred outside the United States unless requested and authorized. FedRAMP is described as 'Ready', not authorized, and ISO 27001 is described as alignment rather than certification.
Can an MSP or consultant manage multiple clients in one account?
Yes. Starter includes one client organization, Growth three and Professional ten, with additional client slots at $49/client/month, separate workspaces, client reporting and white-label options for MSPs and consultants.
What AI capabilities are included, and how are they billed?
An AI Compliance Security Manager powered by GPT-4 answers CMMC questions in plain English, and the platform uses AI for gap analysis, policy and SSP generation and evidence mapping. Query allowances are 50, 150 or 500 per month by tier, with extra queries at $25 per 100; AI is included in the plan price rather than sold separately.
