Preparing your workspace
Preparing your workspace
Built for compliance consultancies and vCISOs who run SOC 2 programs for multiple clients. SimpleAudit’s AI does the heavy lifting on policies, gap analysis, and evidence, so each engagement takes fewer of your hours and your practice can take on more clients without adding headcount.
The revenue line is the bonus: buy client subscriptions at wholesale, resell at your own price, and keep the spread every month.
You buy your clients’ subscriptions from us at wholesale and sell compliance to them at your price. Here is the whole arrangement, end to end.
From your console: their company name, the admin who will own the workspace, and the plan you want them on.
Essentials or Pro, monthly or annual. You see your partner price beside the standard retail price at the moment you choose, so you know your cost before you commit.
Client subscriptions are partner-paid. You check out at about 40% below retail, and the client goes live once payment clears.
Their admin gets an invitation email the moment payment succeeds, and lands in a portal carrying your brand, your playbook, and your points of focus.
At your price, on your terms, on your invoice. SimpleAudit never bills your client and never sees what you charge.
Your own account is a complete client workspace, not a stripped-down preview. Every partner gets one, and it costs nothing extra.
Build a playbook, fork your evidence requirements, and walk the whole onboarding end to end. When it touches a paying client, you already know exactly how it lands.
Show a prospect the real thing on a call, carrying your branding, without borrowing a client’s workspace or exposing their data to do it.
The Partner Plan is more than a resale arrangement; it’s practice infrastructure. You define how compliance work gets done inside SimpleAudit, and every client you onboard inherits that structure automatically. Three things are yours to set:
Your engagement methodology, encoded as the action plan clients actually work through — step by step, in the platform, instead of in spreadsheets and email.
Your reading of the standard, applied to how each SOC 2 control gets evaluated. Your expertise is embedded in every assessment, not just delivered in the report at the end.
What clients are actually asked to collect for a framework: each item, how often it is due, and which controls it satisfies. Fork the platform set, make it yours, and every client you onboard collects evidence your way. Refine it later and a guarded sync pushes the change to existing clients — dry run first, and it never overwrites evidence a client has already gathered.
The result is a compliance practice that scales. Your tenth client onboards the same way as your first: same methodology, same quality, a fraction of the manual coordination.
As a partner, you purchase client subscriptions at wholesale, about 40% below retail, and resell at any price you choose. Your clients get a co-branded compliance platform built around your methodology. You keep the spread on every subscription, every month, for as long as they’re clients.
The math works quickly. At retail pass-through, a handful of active clients offset most of your platform cost. You set the client price, so billing above retail widens the spread further. Unlike project-based consulting revenue, subscription margin is predictable, recurring, and grows with your client base without adding proportional hours.
You don’t have to start at $799/mo. Any SimpleAudit account can create multiple organizations and switch between them freely, with each organization billed at retail for whichever tier it selects. Run a single client engagement end to end that way, then step up to the Partner Plan when you’re ready to scale: wholesale pricing on every client organization, co-branding, and the centralized partner console.
The wholesale margin on client subscriptions doesn’t just offset your platform cost; at modest client volumes it covers it, turning the platform into a net positive on your P&L.
| Active Essentials clients | Markup at retail pass-through | Your net |
|---|---|---|
| 1 client | ~$80/mo | ~$719/mo platform cost |
| 3 clients | ~$240/mo | ~$559/mo platform cost |
| 5 clients | ~$400/mo | ~$399/mo platform cost |
| 10 clients | ~$800/mo | Platform pays for itself |
| 15 clients | ~$1,200/mo | ~$401/mo net margin |
The conservative case: every client on Essentials, passed straight through at retail. You set the client price, so billing above retail widens the spread; Pro clients carry larger markups, and Business clients will as they launch. Actual margin depends on how you price to clients and your mix across tiers. Model your own book with the calculator below.
Enter your client book and see the monthly margin the Partner Plan produces at wholesale pricing.
Your monthly margin: $5,986
5 clients billed at $1,500/mo each is $7,500/mo. Your wholesale seats cost $715/mo (4 x $119 Essentials + 1 x $239 Pro, 40% below retail), plus the $799/mo platform fee. Everything above that is yours.
The same 5-client book on Vanta would run about $50,000/yr in tooling alone. On SimpleAudit wholesale it is $18,168/yr all-in.
With SimpleAudit handling policy generation, gap analysis, and evidence collection, you reclaim roughly 5 hours per client each month. At $200/hr across 5 clients, that is $5,000/month in billable time freed.
Estimates use current published SimpleAudit pricing and competitors' public starting prices.

Your clients never feel like they’re using a third-party tool. The platform carries your brand, your methodology, and your voice throughout the experience. When they log in, they see your practice, not SimpleAudit’s. That matters for retention: clients who work inside a platform that feels like yours are clients who stay with your practice.
Included with the Partner Plan
The Partner Plan doesn’t just give you a platform. It also makes your practice discoverable to SimpleAudit’s wider user base. List the services you offer, and when a SimpleAudit user asks the AI assistant about one of them, the assistant can recommend your practice right inside the conversation.
Offer penetration testing? When a user starts asking the assistant about a pen test, your practice can surface as a recommendation: a warm, in-context, inbound lead you never had to chase. The same goes for tabletop exercises, vCISO engagements, managed detection & response, and vulnerability scanning and management.
Firms in this space pay appointment-setting services hundreds of dollars per qualified meeting; partners get warm, in-context leads as a feature of the plan.
You stay in control: only the services you actively list are eligible, and you can opt out of AI referrals at any time. Recommendations only ever reach SimpleAudit users who aren’t already a partner or someone’s managed client, so the leads are genuinely new business for your practice.
This is what SimpleAudit takes off your plate for each client. It’s the work your team currently guides clients through manually; the platform systematizes it so clients make progress between your touchpoints.
Conversation-driven policy authoring tailored to their actual environment, not generic templates.
Structured assessment of where each client stands against SOC 2 requirements.
Evidence and activities mapped to the specific controls each client needs to satisfy.
A centralized, organized repository for audit evidence that accumulates over time.
Clients connect their own tooling and push evidence programmatically over MCP, so recurring evidence lands in the vault without manual uploads.
Third-party risk tracking and vendor security reviews.
Documented risk identification and treatment.
The operational records auditors ask for, kept current.
Scheduled and documented access-review workflows.
Client data is stored in Azure US regions and AI processing stays in the US — a ready answer when your clients get asked where their data goes.
From your partner console you see every client organization at once, without switching between accounts: average readiness across the portfolio, which clients are live, your plan mix, and how readiness has moved over the last 30 days.
It also tells you where to spend your day. Needs attention names each client with a signal worth following up on and why. Compliance decay is the forward-looking version: evidence about to expire, vendor and access reviews running late, named per client before they become fire drills. And path to audit-ready gives every client a verdict against their own target report date, so you know who is on track and who needs a conversation this week.
Every action your team takes inside a client workspace lands in a cross-client audit log. That is your record, for your own compliance needs, and it stays with you even after a client leaves.
You are asking clients to put their compliance program somewhere new. Here is what happens if the arrangement ends, whichever way it ends.
One plan for partners. One subscription covers unlimited client orgs.
