SOC 2 Type I readiness,
in a box.
Control checklist, policy templates, evidence tracking, and an auditor handoff pack — for 5-person startups, not 500-person enterprises. $199/mo flat. No sales call.
Enterprise deals die in security review
"Are you SOC 2 compliant?" — and the startup answer is usually panic. Vanta and Drata start around $10k+/yr and quote everything. For a team of five that just needs Type I to close its first big deal, that's absurd.
The cost of no SOC 2 isn't the tool — it's the entire ACV of deals you can't sign.
Vanta/Drata: from ~$10k/yr, quoted.

Questions, answered honestly
- Do you issue the SOC 2 report?
- No. Only licensed CPA firms issue SOC 2 reports. We get you ready for them; your audit fee is separate and paid to your auditor.
- What's the difference between Type I and Type II?
- Type I is point-in-time design — the fastest path to unblocking enterprise deals. Type II covers operating effectiveness over time; our $349 tier adds the Type II control set and continuous monitoring reminders.
- How long does it take?
- The workspace is live in a day. Readiness pace depends on how fast you gather evidence — the tracker shows your score the whole way.
- Do you guarantee I'll pass the audit?
- No — auditors decide. We disclose open gaps honestly in the handoff pack so there are no surprises.
