Fig. 1 — Operating model
IT operations tools that do the routine work and check it, so your team only steps in when something needs a decision. Cadres started because patching one server took us up to an hour of manual checks. Each product works on its own; connect them when it helps.
Patching that records a machine's state before and after, compares the two and rolls back if something changed that shouldn't have. Also monitoring, PAM, discovery and security detection, for everything from datacenter servers to rugged scanners on the warehouse floor.
Incidents, requests, changes and problems in one ticket model. SLAs measured against 24x7 or business-hours calendars in the right time zone, rule-based automations, requests raised from Teams or Slack, and change control with a CAB and freeze windows.
Your whole network in one view across vendors, scored against standards you set. Vendors are added as plugins, so a new one doesn't need a project. It also matches firmware against KEV and NVD, scores device health and shows traffic.
Identity provider and identity governance. Passkeys first, SAML and OIDC federation, access requests that provision the account once approved, joiners, movers and leavers driven by HR events, and access reviews that meet SOX separation-of-duties rules.
24 frameworks, rule-based control scoring, SOX ICFR, internal audit and vendor risk. AI can draft text, but it never decides whether a control passes. Auditors get their own scoped portal instead of a shared folder.
CRM and finance for SaaS companies on one ledger, so a founder can run pipeline, billing and month-end close without an ops team. The 11-step close posts its own adjusting entries, and payments connect to your banks and payment providers.
Sect. B — Doctrine
I spent twenty years running global infrastructure on tools that rarely did what the brochure said. Every Cadres product follows these rules.
Every automated action records the state before and after and compares them. Patching rolls back if something changed unexpectedly. Month-end close stops if the books don't balance. Nothing reports success unless it can show it.
If someone keeps doing a task a rule could handle, the product is wrong. People make the decisions and the software works through the checklist.
Control scoring, ticket automations and compliance checks run on rules you can read. AI helps with drafting and sorting, but it never makes the call.
Tickets know which device they're about. Evidence comes from the systems that did the work. You shouldn't have to reconcile by hand anything the products can keep in step themselves.
Yes. Start with whichever product fixes your most pressing problem. Each one works on its own, and you can connect others later.
No. It's six separate products, each with its own job. If you use more than one, they can share data.
No. Portal is included with every other Cadres product to handle sign-in. It only becomes a separate decision if you want it as your company-wide identity provider or for identity governance.
We set it up around your environment and the product you want to test. Trials run for months, because you only find out whether operations tools are any good by running them. You start with a Portal tenant and turn on the products you want to try.
Sect. D — Start Trial
Every trial includes Portal for sign-in. You can add other products to the same tenant as you go.
You get a Portal tenant first, then turn on Relay, Beacon, Synapse, Meridian or Keystone when you want to try them.
You work directly with the people building it.
