The Opportunity

Problem

Remote govtech workers struggle with project management apps that fail to securely handle classified data for distributed teams.

Solution

Classtraq turns project management into a secure inbox where tasks auto-route based on verified clearances and classification. Remote workers get push notifications only for accessible items, reducing exposure risks. Integrates clearance checks via SAML for seamless DoD use.

Target Audience

Remote workers in the govtech sector managing projects involving classified data

Differentiator

Real-time clearance verification via gov ID federation + ephemeral task views that self-destruct.
