Slate Auto replied to my question and confirmed that a factory tonneau cover will be available.
Great news! I figured they would have like most other manufacturers. Also would not be hard to custom order one to fit if the side rails are like most trucks

Not a truck owner presently. In fact never owned a flatbed truck. This seems great for security and safety. will it be lockable?

Truck tonneau covers come in a wide array of functionality. I would fully expect them offer both soft and hard (more secure) covers. All tonneau’s are lockable if the tailgate is lockable.

Lockable is relative on a vinyl tonneau cover. Think about it.

I always had one to keep my truck bed clean and keep stuff from blowing out. Also looks much better on a low bed truck people can see in

Well, of course. Common sense tells you it's not some sort of locked vault, but could be a deterrent. If someone wants into your vehicle badly enough, they'll get in. That also makes me wonder if it will have a basic alarm system, and if the SUV option is added and someone opens the tailgate or breaks the glass, if it would trigger the alarm like perhaps the doors will.
