Teams collaborating on governance work with Knowa powered by PSCA for US retirement plans

The governance problem

Good governance is being let down by bad infrastructure.

Plan sponsors and committee members join to steward participants' savings. They end up hunting for last quarter's minutes across three shared drives, four inboxes, and whoever last ran benefits.

The paperwork expands. SECURE 2.0 rolls out in waves. DOL expectations sharpen. 5500 filings get more scrutinised. The time available does not.

And when someone leaves, the institutional memory leaves with them. The next committee chair starts over.

The vision

The Foundation is what we've built. Connected governance is what PSCA unlocks.

Good governance isn't a feature. It's a direction. Here's where Knowa powered by PSCA is. And where it's going.

Proven LIVE
The Foundation
Why
A single source of truth for the committee's work.
How
The Smart Vault, the Collaboration Space, and Meeting Flow. Every document, decision, and rationale in one place, captured as you work.
Prize
Nothing gets lost. Nothing gets duplicated. The record survives every committee rotation.
The horizon ROADMAP
Autonomous Governance
Why
Judgment automated. Never removed.
How
When the data is live, governance tasks trigger themselves: the Form 5500 cycle fires on its date, a SECURE 2.0 provision prompts the committee, a DOL update drafts the policy revision. Humans sign off on judgment, not admin.
Prize
The committee's time goes to the things only humans can do. The platform handles the rest.

What committees say

From the plan sponsors and committee leaders who live in it.

★★★★★
Financial Services · Large 401(k) plan

"It would be really horrible if we lost Knowa right now. I would dread doing 5500 reviews without it, especially when our auditors ask for documentation."

Head of HR
★★★★★
Industrial · Mid-size 401(k) plan

"My main challenge was manually searching through meeting minutes to find historical information, especially when a DOL inquiry comes in or we're preparing for a plan audit. Knowa gives me a central repository where anyone can access what's needed for the plan."

CHRO · Head of Benefits
