Thoropass
A compliance platform that pairs automated evidence-gathering software with actual licensed auditors on staff, so the same company that helps you prepare for SOC 2 or ISO 27001 can also perform the audit itself.

Description
Most compliance-automation tools stop at the software: they help you collect evidence and then you still have to hire and coordinate with a separate outside audit firm. Thoropass's specific angle is doing both under one roof — an AI-powered platform for tracking controls and evidence, plus licensed CPAs on staff who actually conduct the SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, HITRUST or PCI DSS audit, so there's no handoff between "the tool that got us ready" and "the firm that certifies us."
Beyond the audit itself, it offers penetration testing performed by CREST-accredited testers, vulnerability scanning with audit-ready reporting, evidence management and control tracking, real-time monitoring and alerts, and integrations with common cloud platforms. The company states it serves 1,000+ organizations across SaaS, software, healthcare and FinTech, ranging from mid-market to enterprise. As with the rest of this category, pricing is entirely quote-based, depending on which frameworks you're pursuing, audit scope, company size and which additional services (like pen testing) you add.
💬 Our review
The short version: Thoropass's real differentiator against Vanta, Drata or Secureframe isn't the software — it's that the audit itself is performed in-house by their own CPAs and CREST-accredited pen testers, rather than you needing to separately hire an outside audit firm once the software says you're ready.
That convenience has a real tradeoff: bundling the auditor and the software vendor together means less independence between "the company that helped you prep" and "the company certifying you're compliant," which some security-conscious customers or their own auditors may scrutinize — pure-software players like Vanta or Drata keep those roles separate by design. Pricing is quote-based across this whole category (as with Secureframe and Trustero), so there's no public number to compare, but the practical question to ask during a sales call is what you're actually paying for: software-plus-audit-in-one like Thoropass, or software-only with a BYO-auditor model like the others. For a company that wants one vendor relationship and one bill for both prep and certification, Thoropass's bundled model is the more convenient path.
