SOC 2 readiness package From $1,500, once 3 business days
The audit takes weeks. The deal can't wait. So you get two things at once: everything your auditor asks for on day one, and the security packet you forward to the stalled customer this week, so the deal keeps moving while the audit runs. Drafted from a five-minute intake, checked against your AWS account, human-reviewed, in three business days.

A deal just made SOC 2 your problem.
A customer's security team asked for your SOC 2 report. You do not have one. The deal is now waiting on you.
You learned what an audit needs first: policies, a system description, an evidence index, control tests, a risk register, and the recurring evidence routine behind them. Assembled from scratch, that is 144 to 314 hours of founder or engineer time before an auditor even starts.
A $7,500-a-year platform subscription or a $5,000+ consultant, both of which start with the same templated paperwork and a quarter-long rollout you do not have.
The audit needs an auditor. The prep does not. We sell the prep, finished.
Open the package your auditor wishes every client brought.
Every artifact is shaped against the AICPA Trust Services Criteria and the formats auditors and procurement teams actually use. Anything we cannot ground in your answers ships as a visible [USER TO CONFIRM] marker, never a confident guess.
Eight policies
foundation/policies/ · 8 files + PDFsInformation Security, Acceptable Use, Access Control, Change Management, Incident Response, Vendor Management, Business Continuity, Data Classification. Each mapped to specific Trust Services Criteria with your company details spliced in.
System description + scope documents
foundation/ · §3 draft, SoA, registersThe SOC 2 Section 3 draft your auditor reads first to set scope, a Statement of Applicability covering every Trust Services criterion, and an asset register and data inventory grounded in your stack answers. Consultants charge four figures for the system description alone.
Evidence index, tracker, gap memo
fieldwork/ · start-here/GAP-MEMO.mdThirty-three rows from CC1.1 to CC9.x in AICPA filename convention, each naming the artifact an auditor accepts, the fields it must show, and the exact console or CLI path that produces it. The gap memo reads the index and ranks what to close before fieldwork, with one concrete next action per gap.
Seventeen control tests + pen test brief
fieldwork/ · 17 testsBranch protection, MFA enforcement, encryption at rest, backups, and the rest, each with objective, procedure, and expected result, written the way an auditor reads them. On the soc2.zip AWS tier they arrive pre-verified against your account from a read-only scan, not as homework. Plus a scoping brief that makes your annual pen test usable as audit evidence.
The recurring-evidence kits
routines/ · 6 kits + 12-month calendarQuarterly access reviews with the exact AWS export commands, a vendor register with review log and CUEC worksheet, onboarding and offboarding checklists whose completed copies are the audit evidence, three scripted incident tabletops, a training kit with quiz and roster, and a change-management population export. The 12-month calendar is dated to your fieldwork target: a backward-planned sprint when you book a Type 1, quarterly anchors for a Type 2, so you get real dates instead of "quarter 1." This is the layer first audits actually fail on.
The deal-unblock packet
sales/ · trust page, CAIQ, Readiness Statement, AI postureWhat keeps a stalled deal moving before your report exists: a self-contained security page you can publish at yoursite.com/security the same day, all 138 cells of the CSA questionnaire answered against a defensible small-SaaS posture, sixty more pre-written answers for the SIG-Lite requests procurement sends, a SOC 2 to ISO 27001 crosswalk, and a SOC 2 Readiness Statement your leadership forwards to the prospect: current posture, the auditor you engaged, and a target report date. New for the questionnaires 2026 buyers actually send: an AI security posture summary that lists your approved AI tools, the rule that keeps customer data out of them, and each LLM vendor's data-handling status for you to confirm and forward.
Pre-scored risk register + auditor intros
foundation/risk-register.csv · auditor-matches/A starter risk register pre-scored on the standard 5x5 scale with treatments mapped to a curated mitigation library and a management-review minutes template, plus three audit firms hand-picked for your size, stack, and deadline, with cost ranges and a ready-to-send intro email for each. We run the auditor directory; the matches are real.
Instructions for your coding agent
AGENTS.md · manifest.jsonDrop the package in your repo and point Claude Code or Codex at it: recipes for filling the flagged placeholders from your codebase and AWS account with a cited source per fill, running the quarterly access review, and drafting questionnaire answers. In our benchmark, an agent pointed at AGENTS.md and a real buyer codebase closed 25 facts in 7 minutes, each with a cited source and zero fabricated citations. The guardrails forbid fabricated evidence; every artifact keeps its human sign-off.
144 to 314 hours of prep, compressed to a review pass.
Hours assume a competent founder or ops lead with no prior SOC 2 experience, working from public guidance and the AICPA spec.
At a $150/hour loaded founder rate, that is roughly $19,500 to $43,400 of your time displaced for a $1,500 package. The kit hours are honest: they displace the design and research work, not the recurring activity itself; running the access review or the tabletop is the control, and no package does that for you. The saving holds for the buyer we built this for, a small B2B SaaS on AWS doing its first SOC 2. If that is not you, read "Who should not buy this" below before paying us.
The prep barely changes. So we built it once, and we sell it once.
"If the work is the same every time and the standards are free, why does getting ready cost $10,000 a year? You are renting what you only needed once. We run the auditor directory, we see what every audit asks for, and we packaged the part that never changes."
Peter Korpak, founder, SOC2Auditors.org
About 6,000 people use the directory and guides every month. We have matched 200+ companies with auditors, and this package distills 100+ conversations with buyers and audit firms.

It works fine alongside Vanta or Drata. The package replaces the prep grind, not the monitoring.
The cheap SOC 2 template packs sold elsewhere are a different product, not a cheaper soc2.zip. With one of those you get:
- Blank policy templates, not pre-answered against the AICPA Common Criteria, and a CAIQ that ships empty.
- No human review of the finished artifacts before you forward them to an auditor or a customer.
- Blank control-test workbooks, not grounded in your AWS account, and an empty gap memo.
- No auditor intros matched to your size, stack, and deadline.
The price gap reflects a different product, not a larger markup.
Two tiers. The only difference is proof.
The full package and all eleven evidence kits, drafted from your answers and human-reviewed. Control tests ship as a workbook you complete.
- Eight policies, your company spliced in
- System description (SOC 2 Section 3 draft)
- AICPA evidence index, tracker, gap memo
- Statement of Applicability, asset + data registers
- Pre-filled CAIQ + 60-answer questionnaire bank
- Pre-scored risk register + management review
- 11 evidence kits, 12-month calendar through ISO bridge
- Publishable trust page + SOC 2 Readiness Statement
- AI security posture summary for 2026 questionnaires
- Three auditor intros with cost ranges
- AGENTS.md so your coding agent can work the package
Everything in soc2.zip, with your control tests verified against your AWS account before delivery.
- Everything in soc2.zip
- Read-only AWS scan, revoke the role anytime
- Control tests arrive verified, not blank
- Scan findings feed the gap memo as confirmed gaps
- CAIQ answers overlaid from live evidence
Your 17 control tests arrive pre-run against your AWS account instead of homework you reconstruct from memory. At a $150/hour loaded rate, the $900 more pays for itself on the control-test pass alone.
Email for soc2.zip AWSNot sure which tier? soc2.zip AWS is the default recommendation: the scan removes the 17-test homework and shows verified vs claimed facts. Both tiers stay under most no-approval expense thresholds and arrive in 3 business days.
Fieldwork guarantee. Bring it to your auditor. If they will not work from the format, we revise it until they will, at no charge. Whether you pass is the part you own.
Buy today. Fieldwork-shaped by Friday.
Buy and confirm a short intake
One Stripe payment, then an intake we pre-fill from what we can verify publicly. You answer only what we cannot find: stack, deadline, what you already have. Your coding agent can prepare the answers. soc2.zip AWS buyers paste a read-only IAM role with a unique ExternalId.
We build, scan, and review
The package renders from your answers against the AICPA structure. On soc2.zip AWS, the read-only scan runs first and its findings flow into your control tests, gap memo, and CAIQ. A human reviews every file before it leaves.
The zip lands in your inbox
The whole package, yours to keep. Open index.html first: your readiness bar, ranked punch list, and the deal-unblock packet you forward this week. Fill the flagged placeholders, a few hours, not a few months.
Pick an auditor and go
Use the three intros we matched to your size, stack, and deadline. You arrive at fieldwork with the folder they ask every client for on day one.
Do not take our word for it. Open the actual package.
We will email you the real sample package, including a sample AWS scan report, [USER TO CONFIRM] markers and all. Judge the quality before you spend a dollar.
Who should not buy this.
We would rather disqualify you now than refund you later.
Over ~100 people, multi-product
You want continuous monitoring and a platform. Vanta, Drata, or Secureframe will serve you better than a snapshot.
Renewing an existing SOC 2
You already have policies, an index, and an auditor. This package displaces almost nothing for you.
Expecting an audit
We are not a CPA firm. We do not run audits, issue reports, or promise you pass. We hand you the prep, finished.
Wanting a managed service
soc2.zip is documents plus a scan, not consulting hours. The absence of an implementation call is the point of the price.
Asked before buying.
Will my auditor accept this?
+
The package is shaped against the AICPA Trust Services Criteria with the 2022 points of focus. Auditors do not grade your policies; they test whether you can prove the controls behind them. The system description and evidence index are precisely the two things they ask for first, in the format they expect.
What if my auditor won't work from the format?
+
Bring this package to your auditor. If they will not work from the format, we revise it until they will, at no charge. Whether you pass is the part you own.
What is the evidence routine?
+
The most common way a first audit goes sideways is not missing documents, it is missing evidence: the auditor samples a random week and asks for the access review record, and there isn't one. The package ships a 12-month compliance calendar and ready-to-run kits for each recurring activity (access reviews, vendor management, onboarding and offboarding, incident tabletops, training, change management) so each one produces a dated, signed artifact the first time you run it. You still run the activities; we make each a short, scripted routine instead of a research project.
Can my coding agent fill this in?
+
Yes, by design. The zip ships AGENTS.md and a machine-readable manifest, so you can drop it into your repo and point Claude Code or Codex at it: filling the flagged placeholders from your codebase and AWS account with a cited source per fill, preparing the quarterly access review, completing the control-test workbook, drafting questionnaire answers. The guardrails are strict: the agent never fabricates evidence or dates, and every artifact keeps its human sign-off.
Is the AWS scan safe?
+
You create a read-only IAM role scoped with a unique ExternalId we generate. We never receive write access, the scan reads configuration only, we never retain credentials, and you can revoke the role the moment we deliver. If you would rather not connect anything, buy soc2.zip.
What if my stack is not AWS?
+
Buy soc2.zip. The package works for any stack; the renderers swap tool names where they can, and anything we cannot ground in your answers ships as a [USER TO CONFIRM] marker instead of a guess. The scan tier is AWS-only today.
Why so much cheaper than a platform?
+
Different product. Platforms run continuous monitoring and charge yearly for it. We sell the one-time prep artifact set, built once from the standards that do not change. Many buyers use both: the package for the prep, a platform for the monitoring, some neither.
What does "human-reviewed" mean?
+
Every package is reviewed file by file against a written checklist by us before it ships, including every scan finding on soc2.zip AWS. It is generated by a deterministic pipeline, checked by a person, and never sent blind. The package ships the completed checklist as start-here/REVIEW-RECORD.md, so you can read exactly what was proved mechanically and what a person signed off.
Refunds?
+
Full refund within 7 days, any reason. Reply to your delivery email. We would rather know what was off than keep money from someone who would never buy again.
The deal is waiting. The folder is three days away.
