How does it work?

Enter your details in the form and attach proof of your current contract. This can either be a copy of the document or a screenshot of it.

Create your Codekeeper account

Our in-house legal team drafts your buyout agreement within 24 hours. You review and sign, and your protection goes live.

3

Deposit and sync straight away

With full platform access, you can set up your repositories for automatic syncing. Billing picks up when your old contract expires. 

Escrow migration built around your budget.

Switching your escrow provider mid-term usually isn't a planned spend. You don't have to move cash around to join Codekeeper. We'll have your protection live even while you wait for the old agreement to wind down — at no charge.

Why teams move

Traditional escrow secured a moment in time. Codekeeper protection grows with you.

90% of untested escrow deposits fail when they are used in recovery. Codekeeper makes sure that doesn't happen. With Software Verification, your escrow is confirmed as current, complete, and proven to build.

Escrow that holds up in an audit.

Your auditor doesn't care that a copy of your source code exists somewhere. They want documented proof that your operations keep running when the vendor behind them fails. Codekeeper delivers that proof, mapped to the control or article your framework names.

Evidence for your SOC 2 audit

A Software Resilience Certificate documents your vendor contingency planning, which answers SOC 2 criteria CC9.2 and A1.3 directly.

ISO 27001 and 22301 recovery proof

We rebuild your critical software and time recovery against your BIA targets, mapping the result to control A.5.30 and clauses 8.3 and 8.4.

Ready before your FFIEC exam

We run recovery tests on each vendor system you depend on and compile the results against the NIST CSF 2.0 Recover function for your examiner.

Exit strategy proof for DORA and NIS2

We test the exit strategy for each critical ICT provider, aligning evidence to your Register of Information entry and NIS2's supplier duties.

Tailored data residency and privacy

Storage region selection keeps deposits in an approved jurisdiction, and you pick the law governing the agreement, so sovereignty reviews stay simple.

Proof procurement and audit can use

Each secured application carries its own signed certificate, giving procurement and audit teams dated continuity proof to file per vendor.

Everything included from day one.

No extra costs

No buyout fee, no setup fee, no charge for the overlap period.

A hassle-free transfer

Our legal team drafts the buyout and your new agreement. You just review and sign.

Quick and easy setup

Account, agreement, and first deposit inside a single business day.

Automatic depositing

Automated syncing keeps your escrow current with production.

Unlimited deposits

Deposit as often as you release. There is no per-deposit charge.

Specialized support

A named contact sets the account up with you and your vendor.

Synced repository integration

Connect GitHub, Bitbucket, AWS, Azure, or GCP in a few minutes.

Flexible subscription options

Choose between monthly or annual billing, and opt for protection add-ons as your needs grow.

Start today, pay when your old contract ends.

If your software protection rests on outdated and untested escrow deposits, it's time to make the switch. We'll extend Codekeeper's full escrow protection for free until your current contract runs out — no migration costs attached.
