Evidence collection and organization
Turns documents, screenshots, and spreadsheets into an audit-ready evidence library so teams can stop scattering proof across folders and threads.
Liance
Liance is a SOC 2 readiness workspace for startup teams, with continuous evidence collection, control mapping, and remediation workflows. It helps teams stay audit ready by organizing proof, surfacing drift, and coordinating next steps before audit week.
Overview
Liance is a SOC 2 readiness workspace for startup teams that need to keep evidence, controls, and follow-up work organized between audits. It is positioned as a continuous operating layer rather than a dashboard that only looks complete at a single point in time.
The product turns uploaded documents, screenshots, spreadsheets, and connected-system signals into an audit-ready evidence library. It tracks missing proof, stale evidence, and paused integrations, then points teams to the next action so readiness does not drift unnoticed before the audit window.
Core capabilities
Control mapping in real time
Links continuous signals from connected systems to the controls they support, creating a live proof graph rather than a one-time snapshot.
Drift and gap detection
Surfaces missing evidence, stale proofs, paused integrations, and policy drift so teams know what is blocking readiness before audit week.
Remediation workflows
Converts blockers into owned next steps with actions, owners, and deadlines, including requests for fresh proof and review steps.
Response drafting support
Collects trust-review context for auditors and customer security questions from grounded evidence, giving teams a cleaner starting point for responses.
Integration coverage across key systems
Connects with infrastructure, identity, engineering, and business systems that commonly hold SOC 2 proof, including AWS, GitHub, Google Workspace, Okta, Jira, and Stripe.
Typical use cases
First-time SOC 2 preparation
Teams preparing for their first SOC 2 review can centralize evidence, map it to controls, and see which proof is missing before audit week arrives.
Ongoing readiness maintenance
When policies, access records, or repository settings change over time, Liance helps surface drift and stale evidence so the team can refresh proof before it becomes a blocker.
Consolidating scattered proof
If evidence lives in cloud consoles, identity tools, and spreadsheets, the platform can collect and organize that material into one reviewable workflow.
Remediating compliance blockers
When a control gap needs action, the workflow can assign an owner, request fresh evidence, and track the response instead of leaving the issue vague.
Preparing audit and security responses
For auditor or customer security questions, teams can start from grounded evidence and organized context instead of rebuilding answers from scratch each time.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Centers readiness on live evidence, control context, and remediation instead of a static dashboard snapshot.
- Highlights stale proof, access drift, and paused integrations early, which can reduce last-minute audit scrambling.
- Supports both automated signals and manual evidence such as screenshots and policy artifacts.
- Offers a startup-friendly entry point with a Free plan and a Pro plan for more recurring capacity.
Cons
- The site emphasizes startup-focused readiness workflows, so it is not positioned as a full enterprise GRC suite for every stage.
- Some evidence still needs human review, especially screenshots, exports, and proof that requires context before it is treated as complete.
- The current product surface and exact collector coverage may vary by workflow, so teams may need to confirm fit for a specific stack.
