AuditBadger

AuditBadger is a compliance platform built specifically for small and mid-sized teams who have just been handed a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 requirement and have no idea where to start. Unlike most GRC tools that assume you already have a dedicated compliance department, AuditBadger is designed for the rest of us. It transforms the overwhelming complexity of compliance into a clear, actionable to-do list that your entire team can follow. The platform uses AI to prepare first drafts of your policies, controls, and SOC 2 System Description in minutes instead of weeks, and it tailors everything to your actual company and tech stack rather than using generic templates. You remain in complete control, reviewing and approving every decision before anything enters your compliance record. Nothing happens in a black box. AuditBadger 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. It integrates with AWS, GitHub, GCP, Google Workspace, and more. When you get stuck, the founders are one message away. Not a chatbot. Not a ticket queue. Real humans who built the product and run their own compliance on it. AuditBadger successfully completed its own SOC 2 Type I examination in 2025 using nothing but the product, proving it works for the teams it was built to serve.

AI Compliance Assistant

The AI Compliance Assistant eliminates the blank-page problem that paralyzes most teams starting their compliance journey. It generates control descriptions, drafts policies, suggests evidence for each control, and builds your SOC 2 system description in hours instead of weeks. Every draft is tailored to your actual company, tech stack, and practices, not generic boilerplate. The AI maps policies to controls across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 automatically. You review and approve every draft before it enters your compliance record, ensuring nothing happens without your explicit consent.

Controls and Policies Workspace

This is the central hub where you track implementation across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks simultaneously. You can draft policies, manage versions, and collect acknowledgments from your entire team. The workspace provides a clear, organized view of every control and sub-control, with assessment workflows built in. Change tracking and role-based access control ensure that only authorized team members can modify compliance records. Everything is versioned, so you always know who changed what and when.

Evidence and Assessments Module

Attach evidence directly to the controls it proves, supporting multiple file formats and sources. Run assessments to evaluate your current compliance posture, document findings, and link every piece of evidence to the specific control it satisfies. When your auditor asks for documentation, you can export everything in Excel format with a single click. The module ensures that your evidence collection is organized, traceable, and auditor-ready at all times.

Risks, Vendors and Incidents Management

This integrated module covers your entire risk management lifecycle within the same compliance context. Maintain a risk register that tracks identified risks, their likelihood, impact, and mitigation status. Conduct vendor reviews and assessments to ensure your third parties meet your security standards. Document security incidents, track corrective actions, and build business continuity plans. Everything is linked back to your compliance frameworks, giving auditors a complete picture of your security posture.

First-Time SOC 2 Compliance for a Startup

A 15-person B2B SaaS company lands a major enterprise customer who requires SOC 2 compliance before signing the contract. The startup has no compliance team, no existing policies, and no idea where to begin. AuditBadger guides them from zero to audit-ready in weeks. The AI drafts initial policies based on their actual tech stack, connects to their AWS and GitHub accounts for automatic evidence collection, and presents a clear to-do list with owners and deadlines. The founders provide direct support when questions arise. The team walks into their audit with a structured workspace, complete controls, and linked evidence.

ISO 27001 Certification for a Growing Team

A mid-sized company with 50 employees needs ISO 27001 certification to expand into European markets. The existing security documentation is scattered across Notion, Slack, and individual spreadsheets. AuditBadger imports what they already have, identifies gaps, and generates missing policies and controls. The AI maps everything to ISO 27001 requirements automatically. The team works through the to-do list, reviews AI drafts, and collects acknowledgments from all employees. The integrated risk register and incident management module satisfies ISO 27001 requirements without needing separate tools.

Managing Dual SOC 2 and ISO 27001 Compliance

A company needs both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance for different customer segments. Instead of maintaining two separate compliance programs, they use AuditBadger to manage both frameworks in a single workspace. The AI automatically maps policies and controls across both standards, identifying overlaps and gaps. Evidence collected for one framework applies to the other where appropriate. The team tracks implementation status for both certifications side by side, and the audit trail satisfies requirements for either auditor.

Replacing a Spreadsheet-Based Compliance Program

A team has been using a massive spreadsheet to track compliance tasks, but it has become unmanageable with 200 rows and no clear ownership. AuditBadger replaces the spreadsheet with a structured workspace where every gap becomes a task with an owner, status, and due date. Evidence is linked directly to controls instead of scattered across folders. The AI drafts the missing policies and control descriptions that were previously outsourced to expensive consultants. The team gains visibility into their actual compliance posture and can demonstrate progress to leadership and auditors.

The price includes onboarding with the founding team, direct founder support, and access to all features including SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks, AI Compliance Assistant, evidence collection, risk analysis, vendor assessments, incident management, business continuity planning, asset tracking, and the full audit trail.

How is AuditBadger different from other GRC tools?

Most GRC tools are built for companies that already have a compliance team with dedicated resources. AuditBadger is built for small and mid-sized teams who just got handed a compliance requirement and have no prior experience. The AI does the heavy lifting by drafting policies, controls, and system descriptions tailored to your actual company and tech stack, not generic templates. You review and approve everything. Plus, the founders are one message away when you get stuck, not a chatbot or ticket queue. The flat pricing of $250 per month with no per-user fees or module upsells makes it accessible for any team.

Do I need prior compliance experience to use AuditBadger?

No, you do not need any prior compliance experience. AuditBadger is specifically designed for teams who have no idea where to start. The platform turns SOC 2 and ISO 27001 into a clear to-do list with owners and statuses. The AI Compliance Assistant prepares first drafts of policies, control descriptions, and evidence suggestions in plain language. You simply review and approve each item. The onboarding session with the founding team gets you set up in week one, and direct founder support is available whenever you have questions.

What integrations does AuditBadger support?

AuditBadger integrates with the tools where your evidence already lives, including AWS, GitHub, GCP, Google Workspace, and more. These integrations allow automatic evidence collection, so you do not have to manually gather screenshots and logs. The platform supports multi-format attachments for evidence, including documents, images, and exported data. If your tool is not listed, you can still upload evidence manually and link it to the appropriate controls.

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

Most teams become operational within approximately one week of starting with AuditBadger. The full journey to audit-ready typically takes weeks, not months, depending on your starting point and the complexity of your environment. The platform shows you the entire path on day one, so you know exactly what needs to be done. The AI accelerates the process by drafting policies, mappings, and explanations in minutes instead of weeks. The included onboarding with the founding team ensures you start strong and avoid common pitfalls.
