Enterprise Android SDK for offline-first kiosk, retail, logistics, and field-service apps. Encrypted event queue, tamper-evident audit trail, compliance mapping (FedRAMP/NIST/GDPR). Embedded by app teams, not sold as hardware.
One sharp claim, not a security platform: "Your devices lose network and still log every event, encrypted and provably untampered, ready for audit." Avoid head-on fight with Samsung Knox and Zebra on generic device security.
Pick one vertical where regulated + offline + rugged overlap:
- Primary: field service (utilities, medical-device techs, gov contractors). NIST/FedRAMP pull, real offline need.
- Defer generic retail kiosk. OEM/MDM bundles strongest and willingness-to-pay lowest there.
Not the OEM. The app/platform team running the Android fleet: VP Eng, Head of Store/Field Systems, compliance lead. Economic buyer is whoever owns audit risk.
- Free tier (MIT, public GitHub): encryption + local audit log. Drives developer adoption, zero sales friction.
- Paid tier: compliance mappings (NIST 800-53 control coverage), audit-export tooling, signed attestation, SLA support. Compliance buyers pay for the paperwork and the support, not the crypto.
- Attach: filesigner-sdk-android (hardware-backed signing) as a paid bundle module.
$12-30 per device per year, blended ~$18. Annual contracts with a minimum device commit. Floor deal ~$15-50K/yr. Expand by fleet size (land-and-expand).
- Ship free tier on GitHub, write quickstart, get embeds.
- Land 2-3 reference customers in the beachhead vertical. Logo + "passed audit" case study is the unlock.
- Publish one NIST 800-53 control-coverage mapping as a sales artifact.
- Convert free adopters to paid via the compliance/support tier.
Quantum-Go (PQ crypto, FIPS 140-3 mode) is the halo: it makes the org credible to security buyers. Use it in the pitch deck, not as a product line.
Validate that at least one customer pays for the compliance/support tier within ~6 months. If the free tier gets adoption but nobody pays for the paperwork, there is no business. Stop before building more.
- Build-vs-buy: Knox, Zebra, Android Enterprise, and MDM vendors ship overlapping encryption/attestation free. Differentiate on offline audit + compliance evidence, not raw crypto.
- Long enterprise sales cycles: sub-1% market capture is realistic in years 1-3. Plan runway accordingly.
- Compliance moat is narrow: FedRAMP/NIST is the wedge into gov/regulated buyers but shrinks the addressable market; GDPR is table-stakes.
