SOC 2 readiness without hiring a full time GRC lead

GetComply helps SaaS teams prepare for SOC 2 with a named advisor, weekly guidance, evidence review, and a shared workspace so your CTO can keep building instead of running compliance.

Context

Your team needs SOC 2. Now what?

Most lean SaaS teams get stuck between hiring a full time GRC lead, buying another compliance tool, or asking engineering to run the process on the side. GetComply gives the work a clear owner, a weekly rhythm, reviewed evidence, and a shared workspace.

Hiring a GRC lead

High cost, long hiring cycle, and more dedicated capacity than many early stage teams need for a first compliance program.

Doing it internally

Cheaper at first, but easy to stall when evidence, ownership, and audit expectations are unclear.

Using self serve software

Helpful for automation, but your team still needs someone to drive the work, review evidence, and keep the audit path clear.

Using GetComply

A named advisor, weekly accountability, human evidence review, and a shared workspace built around SOC 2 readiness.

Start here

Choose the path that matches where you are

Most teams should not spend weeks comparing plans. If SOC 2 is already blocking a deal or customer conversation, start with Launch Readiness. If you are still figuring out scope and budget, start with Readiness Assessment.

Most teams start here Typical engagement: 4 to 6 months

Launch Readiness

For SaaS teams that already know SOC 2 is needed because a customer, prospect, or enterprise deal created pressure.

Launch Readiness turns SOC 2 into a managed weekly process. We confirm scope, set up the shared workspace, review evidence, track remediation, and prepare materials for the CPA firm.

Team effort expectation

Typical customer involvement: 30 to 60 minutes per week for the founder or CTO, plus 1 to 3 hours per week from engineering during active remediation.

What is included

  • Shared SOC 2 workspace setup
  • Scope confirmation
  • Control and policy guidance
  • Evidence request workflow
  • Advisor evidence review
  • Weekly readiness brief
  • Remediation plan
  • CPA package preparation

Best for

  • First time SOC 2 efforts
  • CTO led or founder led compliance
  • Teams without a full time GRC owner
  • Companies responding to enterprise customer pressure

Not sure whether to start with Launch or Assessment?

Start with Launch Readiness if SOC 2 is already a priority. Start with Readiness Assessment if you are still deciding scope, timing, and budget.

Diagnostic option Usually completed in 2 to 3 weeks

Readiness Assessment

$7,500

one time project fee

For teams that want the map before they commit to a managed program.

What is included

  • Scope definition
  • Trust criteria selection guidance
  • Gap review across controls, policies, and governance
  • Risk and evidence review
  • Prioritized readiness plan
  • Advisor walkthrough of findings

Deliverables

  • Scope definition document
  • Gap review report
  • Prioritized readiness plan
  • Advisor walkthrough and next steps

Many teams continue with Launch Readiness after the assessment is delivered, but it is not required.

Tooling

Already looking at Vanta or Drata?

Self serve compliance platforms can help automate evidence collection and organize controls. GetComply is different. We provide the person responsible for driving the program, reviewing evidence, keeping momentum, and preparing your team for the CPA firm.

Already using Vanta or Drata? Great. GetComply can work alongside your existing platform. You are hiring us to run the program, not replace software you already invested in.

  • No evidence review
  • High internal lift

After readiness

Keep compliance from falling apart after the first push

SOC 2 is not over when readiness ends. Access reviews, vendor reviews, policy updates, risk tracking, questionnaires, and audit prep still need an owner.

GetComply helps keep that rhythm in place without forcing your CTO or founder to become the long term compliance owner.

Audit fees are separate

GetComply is not a CPA firm and does not issue SOC 2 reports. Audit fees are paid directly to the CPA firm. We help prepare the work and organize the materials. The CPA firm performs the audit.

We do not mark up audit fees or require you to use a specific auditor. If you have not selected an auditor yet, we can help you understand what to look for and coordinate readiness work around the auditor you choose.

Audit fees vary by scope, company size, audit type, and CPA firm. We discuss expected audit costs during the intro call and help you understand what to look for when choosing an auditor.
