Knox Systems said Thursday it will offer customers pursuing U.S. government contracts a two-week trial of OpenPolicy’s policy-intelligence platform, adding research and planning support to their federal-market preparations.
Knox’s announcement describes a free 14-day trial, a go-to-market consultation and sessions before the trial to identify users, workflows and success criteria. Customers who subscribe afterward will receive a discount, but the release gives neither the subscription price nor the size of the discount.
OpenPolicy says its AI platform tracks policy and regulatory changes and helps organizations assess their implications, along with developments in the government market. The announcement presents the service as a resource for companies planning policy engagement as they pursue federal business.
Knox CEO Irina Denisenko said, “Contracts follow relationships, and relationships follow an understanding of policy.” OpenPolicy CEO Amit Elazari said the service is reaching companies as they enter the federal market, when policy can help shape go-to-market strategy.
Knox says it provides cloud compliance boundaries authorized under FedRAMP and by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). Knox says its services can help commercial software and AI vendors deploy to U.S. agencies in as little as 90 days.
Knox had previously described its place in the OpenPolicy ecosystem as involving work on cybersecurity, AI and government-acquisition policy. Thursday’s announcement does not explain how the customer offer relates to that earlier relationship.
