AuditBadger

AuditBadger is the compliance platform built for small and mid-sized teams who just got handed a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 requirement and have no idea where to start. Unlike traditional GRC tools that assume you already have a dedicated compliance department, AuditBadger turns complex frameworks into a clear, actionable to-do list for your entire team. The AI prepares first drafts of your policies, controls, and even your SOC 2 System Description in minutes instead of weeks, and everything is tailored to your actual company and tech stack — not generic boilerplate templates. You review and approve every decision, so nothing happens in a black box. The platform includes pre-configured SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks, evidence collection with multi-format attachments, risk analysis, vendor assessments, incident management, business continuity planning, asset tracking, and a full audit trail. AuditBadger integrates directly with AWS, GitHub, GCP, Google Workspace, and more. The best part? When you get stuck, the founders are one message away — not a chatbot, not a ticket queue. They run their own compliance on AuditBadger, hitting SOC 2 Type I in 2025 and Type II in progress using nothing but the product. If it didn't work, they would be the first to know. At a flat $250 per month with unlimited users and no per-user fees or module upsells, AuditBadger is the most straightforward path from zero to audit-ready for teams that need to keep shipping while getting compliant.

AI Compliance Assistant

The AI Compliance Assistant is your co-pilot for all the blank-page work that makes compliance feel overwhelming. It drafts policies based on your actual tech stack and practices — not generic boilerplate — and writes control descriptions you can hand to an auditor with confidence. It suggests evidence for each control so you know exactly what "done" looks like, and it automatically maps policies to controls across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks. The assistant can even build your entire SOC 2 System Description in hours instead of a lost week of manual work. Every draft is a starting point, and nothing enters your compliance record without your human review and approval.

Controls and Policies Workspace

This module gives you one organized place to track implementation across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks simultaneously. You can draft and manage policies with full versioning, collect acknowledgments from team members, and see exactly where you stand at any moment. The workspace eliminates the chaos of spreadsheets, scattered Notion docs, and screenshots in Slack by centralizing everything auditors ask to see. You get a clear view of which controls are implemented, which need work, and who owns each task, so your team can move from confusion to clarity in days.

Evidence and Assessments Hub

Stop hunting for evidence across your tools and Slack messages. This feature lets you attach evidence in multiple formats (PDFs, screenshots, logs, exports) and link each piece directly to the controls it proves. You can run assessments, document findings, and export everything when your auditor asks for it. The linked evidence system means your auditor gets a structured workspace where controls, evidence, and history are exactly where they expect to find them. No more frantic last-minute searches for that one configuration screenshot.

Risk, Vendors, and Incidents Management

Compliance isn't just about policies — it's about proving you manage risk, vendors, and incidents properly. This module gives you a risk register to track and score threats, vendor review workflows to assess third-party security, and incident management to document security events and corrective actions. It also includes business continuity planning tools so you can prove you are prepared for disruptions. Everything lives in the same compliance context, so your auditor can see the full picture without jumping between systems.

Startup Needing SOC 2 for a Customer Deal

You are a 15-person B2B SaaS startup, and a key customer just made SOC 2 a requirement to close a six-figure deal. You have no compliance team, no dedicated security person, and your evidence is scattered across Google Drive, Slack, and GitHub. AuditBadger gives you a clear to-do list from day one. You pick SOC 2, connect your tools like AWS and GitHub, and the AI drafts your policies and control descriptions within the first week. Your team works through the tasks, attaches evidence as they go, and within weeks you are walking into the audit prepared. The flat $250/month price means no surprise costs as you scale.

Mid-Sized Team Adding ISO 27001 on Top of SOC 2

Your company already has SOC 2 compliance under your belt, but a European customer requires ISO 27001 for a new contract. The thought of managing two frameworks with overlapping controls feels enormous. AuditBadger lets you run both frameworks in the same workspace. The AI maps your existing policies to ISO 27001 controls, identifies gaps, and creates tasks for what needs updating. You don't start from scratch — you build on what you already have. The integrated risk register and vendor assessments work for both frameworks, so your team maintains one source of truth instead of duplicating effort.

Engineering-Led Team with No Compliance Background

Your CTO just assigned compliance to the engineering lead who has never heard of SOC 2 or ISO 27001. You need structure, not a 200-row spreadsheet handed over by a consultant. AuditBadger turns the frameworks into a clear to-do list with tasks, owners, and statuses. The AI explains compliance concepts in plain language and drafts policies that match your actual tech stack. When you get stuck, the founders are one message away — they answer questions directly, not through a support ticket. The onboarding session with the founding team gets you operational in about a week.

Company Going Through Its First Audit Ever

You have never been audited before, and the idea of an auditor poking through your systems is intimidating. AuditBadger prepares you by building the structured workspace your auditor expects to see. Controls are organized, evidence is linked, and the full audit trail shows every change and approval. The AI helps you write the SOC 2 System Description in hours, and the business continuity plan module ensures you have documented your disaster recovery procedures. When the auditor asks for something, you export it from the same workspace you have been working in all along — no last-minute scrambling.

How is AuditBadger different from other GRC tools?

Most GRC tools are designed for companies that already have a compliance team with dedicated resources. AuditBadger is built for small and mid-sized teams who have no compliance background and just got handed a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 requirement. The AI does the heavy lifting by drafting policies, control descriptions, and evidence suggestions tailored to your actual tech stack. You review and approve every decision — nothing happens in a black box. And when you get stuck, the founders are one message away, not a chatbot or ticket queue. The pricing is also radically simpler: one flat $250/month with unlimited users and no per-user fees or module upsells.

Do I need a compliance team to use AuditBadger?

No, that is the whole point of AuditBadger. The platform is built specifically for teams without a compliance department. The AI drafts policies, maps controls, suggests evidence, and explains compliance concepts in plain language. Your team just needs to review, approve, and attach evidence as they go. The onboarding session with the founding team gets you set up in about a week, and they are available by message whenever you get stuck. Many teams go from zero to audit-ready without hiring a single compliance specialist.

What frameworks does AuditBadger support?

AuditBadger currently supports SOC 2 (both Type I and Type II) and ISO 27001. You can pick one framework or run both simultaneously in the same workspace. The AI automatically maps policies and controls across both frameworks, so you don't duplicate work. The platform includes pre-configured controls, evidence collection, risk analysis, vendor assessments, incident management, and business continuity planning for both standards. The team at AuditBadger runs their own SOC 2 compliance on the product, so they know exactly what works.

How long does it take to get audit-ready with AuditBadger?

Most teams get operational in about one week after onboarding with the founding team. From there, becoming audit-ready takes weeks, not months, depending on how quickly your team works through the to-do list and attaches evidence. The AI dramatically reduces the time spent on drafting policies, writing control descriptions, and building the SOC 2 System Description — tasks that typically take weeks manually can be done in hours. The key is that you can see the entire path on day one, so there are no surprises or hidden steps along the way.

AuditBadger offers one simple, flat price: $250 per month. There are no per-user fees, no module upsells, and no hidden costs. You get unlimited users, onboarding included, and access to all features including the AI Compliance Assistant, evidence collection, risk analysis, vendor assessments, incident management, and business continuity planning. Demos and onboarding are run by the founding team — not a sales department. Not ready to talk? You can generate free policies first on their website.
