# immut alongside your other tools

## Positioning

immut is the **proof layer**. It does not replace:

- **Compliance automation** (Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, and similar): they collect and organise evidence; immut proves when that evidence existed.
- **Document storage** (Drive, SharePoint, Box): they hold files; immut adds independent proof of when material files existed.
- **Virtual data rooms** (sharing and access control for diligence): they share the room; immut addresses integrity of the files inside it.
- **Notaries / generic timestamp services that require ongoing trust in a vendor alone:** immut optimises for independent verification and permanent proof that outlives the vendor.

## For founders

When comparing tools for a raise or exit, ask: can an investor check *when* this file existed without trusting only our admin-controlled systems? That is the gap immut fills.
