Your AWS Account, Your BAA Story
Your patient data never touches Convox infrastructure. Convox Rack provisions directly into your AWS account — PHI stays inside your VPC, encrypted at rest with your KMS keys, logged by your CloudTrail. When auditors ask "where does patient data live?" the answer is your account, your region, your encryption keys.
Near-100% Close Rate With the Right Stakeholder
When both the CTO and Compliance Officer evaluate Convox together, the deal closes. Our BYOC model eliminates the data processing argument entirely — there's no vendor BAA negotiation because Convox never processes your data. Bring your compliance lead to the eval and watch objections disappear.
Deploy Compliant Apps Without a DevOps Team
Most digital health startups hit a HIPAA audit deadline with zero DevOps staff. Define your services in convox.yml, run convox deploy, and get production infrastructure that meets compliance requirements. No Kubernetes expertise needed — your developers ship code while Convox handles the infrastructure attestation.
Half the Cost of Aptible, Full Data Ownership
Aptible charges a premium for compliance-first branding and managed infrastructure. Convox gives you the same deployment simplicity at a fraction of the cost — plus your data lives in your AWS account, not theirs. When enterprise customers ask about data residency, BYOC is a stronger answer than any vendor-hosted alternative.
GovCloud Ready for Federal Health Contracts
Need to serve VA, DoD, or CMS contracts? Deploy into AWS GovCloud regions with the same convox rack install workflow. No PaaS competitor in our weight class supports GovCloud deployment — your only alternative is hiring a platform engineering team to self-manage Kubernetes.
SOC 2 and HIPAA from Day One
VPC isolation, IAM role separation, encrypted EBS volumes, and private subnets are provisioned automatically. Your infrastructure inherits AWS's SOC 2 and HIPAA controls by default. Add Convox's deployment audit trail and you have a compliance story that satisfies auditors without a dedicated security engineering hire.
