AuditBadger

AuditBadger is a compliance automation platform purpose-built for small and mid-sized teams that have been handed a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 requirement and have no prior compliance experience. Unlike traditional GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) tools that assume you already have a dedicated compliance department, AuditBadger meets you where you are. It transforms the overwhelming complexity of security frameworks into a clear, actionable to-do list that your entire team can understand and execute. The platform leverages artificial intelligence to prepare first drafts of your policies, control descriptions, and SOC 2 System Description in minutes rather than weeks, and every single draft is tailored to your actual company, technology stack, and operational practices rather than generic boilerplate templates. Nothing happens inside a black box. You review every decision, approve every control, and maintain full visibility into your compliance posture at all times. 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 complete audit trail. The platform integrates directly with AWS, GitHub, GCP, Google Workspace, and other tools where your evidence already lives. Perhaps most importantly, when you get stuck, the actual founders of the company are one message away. Not a chatbot. Not a ticket queue. Real human founders who run their own compliance on AuditBadger. The company completed its SOC 2 Type I examination in 2025 and is currently pursuing Type II, using nothing but the product itself. If it did not work, they would be the first to know.

AI Compliance Assistant

The AI Compliance Assistant eliminates the blank-page problem that paralyzes most teams starting their compliance journey. It generates complete first drafts of policies, control descriptions, and evidence suggestions based on your actual company information, technology stack, and operational practices rather than generic templates. The AI can build your entire SOC 2 System Description in hours instead of weeks, automatically maps policies to controls across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks, and suggests what evidence you need for each control so you always know what done looks like. Every AI-generated draft is a starting point that requires human review and approval before anything enters your compliance record.

Controls and Policies Workspace

This central workspace provides a single source of truth for tracking implementation across both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks simultaneously. You can draft new policies, manage multiple versions, collect employee acknowledgments, and track which controls are implemented, in progress, or not yet started. The workspace supports full versioning so you can see how your policies evolved over time, and every change is recorded in the audit trail. This module transforms abstract compliance requirements into concrete tasks with assigned owners and clear status indicators.

Evidence and Assessments Module

The evidence module allows you to attach files in multiple formats, link them directly to the specific controls they prove, and organize everything exactly the way auditors expect to see it. You can run internal assessments, document findings, and export complete evidence packages when your auditor requests them. The system maintains a comprehensive audit trail of every piece of evidence submitted, reviewed, and approved, giving your auditor confidence that your compliance program is genuine and well-documented rather than constructed at the last minute.

Risk, Vendor, and Incident Management

This integrated module provides a complete risk register where you can document, assess, and track risks alongside your compliance work. You can conduct vendor security reviews, document security incidents and corrective actions, and maintain business continuity plans all within the same compliance context. This eliminates the disconnected spreadsheets and fragmented tools that typically plague small teams trying to manage security operations. Everything lives in one place, organized the way auditors ask for it, and connected to the controls and policies that address each risk or incident.

Startup Facing a Customer SOC 2 Demand

A growing SaaS company receives a request from a major enterprise customer requiring SOC 2 compliance before closing a six-figure deal. The startup has no compliance team, no existing policies, and no idea where to begin. With AuditBadger, they select SOC 2 framework, connect their AWS and GitHub accounts, and within the first week have a clear to-do list generated by the AI. The AI drafts their initial policies based on their actual tech stack, suggests evidence for each control, and the founding team reviews and approves everything. Within weeks they are audit-ready, and the customer deal closes on schedule.

Mid-Sized Team Pursuing ISO 27001

A mid-sized technology company with 50 employees needs ISO 27001 certification to expand into European markets. The compliance responsibility falls on an engineering manager who already has a full-time job building product. AuditBadger converts the enormous ISO 27001 framework into manageable daily tasks with clear owners. The AI drafts control descriptions and maps them to the appropriate policies. The manager can assign evidence collection tasks to different team members, track progress visually, and hand the auditor a structured workspace with everything organized exactly as required.

Company Running Both SOC 2 and ISO 27001

An organization needs to maintain both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance simultaneously for different customer segments. Instead of managing two separate compliance programs with different tools and consultants, they use AuditBadger to handle both frameworks in a single workspace. The AI automatically maps policies and controls across both frameworks, identifies overlap where one piece of evidence can satisfy multiple requirements, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks. The team saves thousands of dollars in consulting fees and hundreds of hours of duplicate work.

Security-Conscious Team Without Compliance Budget

A small team of 10 people wants to implement security best practices proactively before a customer demands it. They have no budget for a compliance department or expensive GRC tools. AuditBadger gives them a professional-grade compliance platform for a flat $250 per month with unlimited users. They can start with free policy generation, work through the to-do list at their own pace, and have direct access to the founders when they have questions. By the time a customer asks for SOC 2, they are already most of the way there.

How is AuditBadger different from traditional GRC tools?

Traditional GRC tools are designed for large organizations with dedicated compliance teams, expensive consultants, and existing compliance programs. They typically charge per user, have complex module upsells, and assume you already know what you are doing. AuditBadger is built specifically for small and mid-sized teams with no compliance experience. It uses AI to generate first drafts tailored to your company, provides a simple to-do list interface, charges a flat $250 per month with no per-user fees or module upsells, and gives you direct access to the actual founders when you need help.

Do I need any compliance experience to use AuditBadger?

No compliance experience is required. AuditBadger is designed for people who just got handed a SOC 2 or ISO 27001 requirement and have no idea where to start. The platform converts complex frameworks into a clear to-do list with assigned owners and status indicators. The AI drafts your policies, control descriptions, and evidence suggestions. Onboarding with the founding team is included, and you can message the founders directly when you get stuck. The entire product was built by founders who run their own compliance on it, so they understand exactly where beginners get confused.

Can I use AuditBadger for both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 at the same time?

Yes, AuditBadger supports both SOC 2 and ISO 27001 frameworks simultaneously within a single workspace. You can pick one or both when you set up your account. The AI automatically maps policies and controls across both frameworks, identifies areas of overlap where one piece of evidence satisfies multiple requirements, and ensures you maintain compliance with both standards without duplicating work. This is particularly valuable for companies that need to satisfy different customer requirements in different markets.

What happens when I get stuck or have questions?

When you get stuck, you message the actual founders of AuditBadger directly. Not a chatbot. Not a ticket queue that gets answered in three business days. Real human founders who built the product and run their own compliance on it. They are one message away and typically respond quickly because they understand that compliance questions often come up when you are under pressure to close a deal or pass an audit. Demos and onboarding are also run by the founding team, not a sales department.

AuditBadger offers a single, straightforward pricing plan at $250 per month. This flat rate includes unlimited users, all modules and features, onboarding with the founding team, and direct access to the founders for support. There are no per-user fees, no module upsells, no hidden costs, and no surprises. You get the entire platform for one predictable monthly price, whether you have two people or fifty people working on compliance. The company also offers free policy generation for teams that are not ready to commit but want to get started.
