Compliance software promised to make audits painless. For a lot of engineering teams, it still has not delivered on that promise. Platforms like Vanta and Drata automated the paperwork side of SOC 2 and ISO 27001 well. The evidence itself, the actual proof that controls are working day to day, still tends to fall on someone’s shoulders to chase down manually.
Jersey City-based Auditflo wants to close that gap. The compliance evidence automation platform opened beta access on August 1, giving early customers 90 days of free access and locking in founder pricing permanently for anyone who signs up during the beta window.
The Gap Between Automation and Compliance Evidence
Most compliance teams already run a GRC platform to manage policies and assign controls, plus prep for an audit when the time comes. Those tools solve real problems. What they tend to solve less well is the ongoing, unglamorous task of proving those controls actually held up across an entire audit period, not just on the day someone remembered to check.
Auditflo positions itself as a layer that sits alongside those existing tools rather than replacing them. The platform connects directly to the systems where engineering work actually happens, including AWS and GitHub, along with Jira, and pulls continuous, granular evidence from those sources instead of relying on periodic manual checks. Full integration details are available on the company’s integrations page.
What Auditflo Actually Does
The pitch is specific rather than sprawling. Where a general GRC platform might confirm that a control exists and log a broad status update, Auditflo aims to capture the detailed data points underneath it, the individual commits, access changes, and configuration events that an auditor would actually want to see. That distinction matters more than it sounds. Auditors do not just want to know a control is in place. They want evidence it held up continuously, and gathering that evidence by hand across dozens of systems is exactly the kind of work compliance teams describe as their least favorite part of the job.
The full feature list, including current framework support for SOC 2 and ISO 27001, along with HIPAA, is outlined on Auditflo’s features page.

A Beta Built Around Founding Customers
Auditflo’s beta structure leans heavily on the idea that early customers should shape the product, not just test it. The company is offering up to 90 days of free access with no credit card required and no obligation to continue afterward. Anyone who joins during the beta period keeps their pricing locked in for good once paid plans begin, which start at $299 per month.
“I built AuditFlo because existing GRC tools help manage compliance, but they do not always solve the ongoing work of collecting and organizing evidence across an entire audit period. This beta gives early customers the opportunity to help shape a platform designed to work alongside their current GRC program and make continuous evidence collection far less manual.”
That quote comes from founder Devario Johnson, who built Auditflo after watching compliance teams treat evidence collection as a recurring fire drill rather than a solved problem. Johnson previously worked as a software engineer at Marvel Comics and is also affiliated with The Web3 Company.
Why the Timing Makes Sense
Compliance has become table stakes for companies far earlier in their growth than it used to. Enterprise buyers routinely ask for a SOC 2 report before a contract closes, and healthcare and fintech startups face regulatory obligations from day one. That pressure has fueled rapid growth for GRC platforms over the past several years, but it has also left an opening for tools that go deeper into the evidence layer those platforms were never built to handle alone.
Whether Auditflo fills that gap at scale is still an open question this early in beta. What is clear is the specificity of the bet: rather than competing head-on with established GRC players, the company is positioning itself as the compliance evidence layer that works underneath them.
