    Your data

    Debenda works from the fields you type. It doesn’t take contract documents or uploads, and it doesn’t store PIEE credentials. Your CUI perimeter doesn’t move.

    Sources

    Each finding names the FAR or DFARS clause, PIEE guide, or DFAS document it comes from. Rules built on practice instead of regulation say so. Found an error? Email nadav@debenda.com.

    You submit

    Debenda prepares and you submit. Nothing goes to the government from Debenda.

    What Debenda will never tell you

    We never say “approved for payment.” Only the government approves payment. We tell you what the rules say, what historically gets bounced, and what interest you’re owed, with the citation attached.
