AuditBadger

AuditBadger is a compliance automation platform built specifically for small and mid-sized teams that have 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: engineering teams, product managers, and operations folks who suddenly need to prove security without hiring a full compliance staff.

The product turns SOC 2 and ISO 27001 into a clear, actionable to-do list for your entire team. Instead of drowning in generic templates and confusing frameworks, you get AI that prepares first drafts of your policies, controls, and SOC 2 System Description in minutes rather than weeks. These drafts are tailored to your actual company, tech stack, and practices, not boilerplate language from a consultant. You review and approve every decision, so 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 or a ticket queue. The pricing is a flat $250 per month with no per-user fees, no module upsells, and no surprises. The team runs their own compliance on AuditBadger, achieving SOC 2 Type I in 2025 with Type II in progress, using nothing but the product.

AI Compliance Assistant

The AI compliance assistant reduces blank-page work and explains compliance in plain language. It drafts policies from your actual tech stack and practices rather than generic boilerplate. It writes control descriptions you can hand to an auditor with confidence, suggests evidence for each control so you know what done looks like, maps policies to controls across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 automatically, and builds your SOC 2 system description in hours instead of a lost week. Every draft is a starting point, and nothing enters your compliance record without your review.

Controls and Policies Module

This module tracks implementation across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks simultaneously. You can draft policies, manage versions, and collect acknowledgments from your team all in one place. The system provides a structured workspace where every gap becomes a task with an owner and a status. Your team reviews and approves each policy, control description, and mapping before it becomes part of your compliance record. Versioning ensures you always know which version of a policy was active at any point in time.

Evidence and Assessments Module

Attach evidence directly to the controls it proves, run assessments, document findings, and export everything when the auditor asks. The system supports multi-format attachments so you can upload screenshots, PDFs, logs, or any other file type your evidence comes in. Linked evidence ensures every control has proof behind it, and the Excel export feature lets you hand your auditor exactly what they expect. Assessment workflows guide you through evaluating each control and documenting the results.

Risks, Vendors, and Incidents Module

This module combines risk register, vendor reviews, security incidents, corrective actions, and continuity planning in the same compliance context. You can track risks as they arise, review vendor security posture, document security incidents and how they were resolved, and plan for business continuity. Everything stays connected to your compliance frameworks so auditors can see how you manage risk proactively. The comprehensive audit trail records every change, decision, and approval.

Startup Landing Their First Enterprise Customer

A startup with a handful of engineers gets a SOC 2 requirement from their first enterprise customer. They have no compliance experience, no dedicated staff, and no existing policies. AuditBadger sets them up in week one with pre-configured frameworks, AI-drafted policies tailored to their tech stack, and a clear to-do list. The team works through the tasks together, collects evidence from their existing tools, and walks into the audit prepared. The flat pricing means they can bring the whole team on board without surprise costs.

Mid-Sized Team Expanding Into Regulated Markets

A growing company needs ISO 27001 certification to expand into European markets or work with government clients. The team has some security practices in place but nothing documented or structured for an audit. AuditBadger helps them map existing controls to the ISO framework, identify gaps, and draft missing policies. The AI assistant suggests evidence for each control, and the risk module helps them document their risk management process. The founders provide direct support when the team encounters unfamiliar requirements.

Engineering Team Managing Dual Compliance

A company needs both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance simultaneously, perhaps because different customers require different frameworks. AuditBadger handles both frameworks in the same workspace, automatically mapping policies and controls across each one. The team avoids duplicating work because the system understands which controls satisfy requirements in both frameworks. The AI assistant drafts control descriptions that work for both standards, and evidence attached to one control can be linked to the corresponding control in the other framework.

Remote Team With Distributed Evidence

A fully remote team keeps their security evidence scattered across Slack, Notion, Google Drive, and various cloud tools. AuditBadger integrates with AWS, GitHub, GCP, and Google Workspace to pull evidence directly from where it already lives. Team members can upload evidence from anywhere, and the system links it to the appropriate controls. The role-based access control ensures only authorized people can approve policies or view sensitive evidence. The founder support team helps the remote team establish consistent evidence collection practices.

How is AuditBadger different from other GRC tools?

Most GRC tools are built for companies that already have a compliance team with dedicated staff. AuditBadger is built for small and mid-sized teams who just got handed a compliance requirement and have no idea where to start. The AI prepares first drafts of policies and controls tailored to your actual company and tech stack, not generic templates. You review and approve every decision, so nothing happens in a black box. The founders are one message away when you get stuck, not a chatbot or a ticket queue. Pricing is a flat $250 per month with no per-user fees or module upsells.

What frameworks does AuditBadger support?

AuditBadger supports SOC 2 and ISO 27001 with pre-configured frameworks that include all controls and sub-controls. You can pick one framework or run both simultaneously. The system automatically maps policies and controls across both frameworks so you avoid duplicating work. The AI assistant drafts control descriptions that satisfy requirements in both standards, and evidence attached to one control can be linked to the corresponding control in the other framework. The team is actively expanding to additional frameworks based on customer demand.

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

Most teams go from zero to operational in about one week. The full journey to audit-ready typically takes weeks rather than months, depending on your starting point and how quickly your team works through the to-do list. Onboarding with the founding team is included and takes about 30 minutes for a founder walkthrough. You can see the entire path on day one, with every gap turned into a task with an owner and a status. The AI drafts policies and control descriptions in minutes, significantly reducing the time you spend on documentation.

Is my data secure on AuditBadger?

AuditBadger runs its own compliance on the product. The team achieved SOC 2 Type I in 2025 and has Type II in progress, using nothing but the product itself. This means they eat their own dog food and know firsthand if anything is broken. The platform includes role-based access control, change tracking, and a comprehensive audit trail. Evidence and data are stored securely, and the platform integrates with your existing tools rather than requiring you to move data into a new system. The security page on the website provides detailed information about their security practices and certifications.

AuditBadger offers a single, flat pricing plan at $250 per month. This includes unlimited users, so you can bring your entire team on board without additional per-user fees. There are no module upsells, no surprise charges, and no hidden costs. Onboarding with the founding team is included in the price. You get access to all features: SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks, AI compliance assistant, controls and policies, evidence and assessments, risks and vendors and incidents, integrations with AWS and GitHub and GCP and Google Workspace, and the full audit trail. The flat pricing model is designed specifically for small and mid-sized teams who need predictable costs without enterprise pricing games.
