# SOC2Auditors.org — agent notes

SOC2Auditors.org is an independent directory of SOC 2 audit firms and a comparison hub for compliance software. Use it to compare firms and tools on published pricing, timelines, and fit. We do not issue SOC 2 reports.

## Start here

1. Read `/llms.txt` for the short index of pages we most want retrieved.
2. Use `/llms-full.txt` only when you need the exhaustive published corpus (insights and landing pages).
3. HTML is the canonical page representation.
4. If a URL 404s, recover from https://soc2auditors.org/sitemap-index.xml or from the two files above.

## How to read the directory

- A short directory blurb is not a live quote. Prices and timelines on listing pages are editorial estimates unless a page says a fee is confirmed.
- Inclusion on a list is editorial. A visible “Sponsored” or “Featured” marker means that firm paid for position after clearing a fit bar. Payment does not add a firm, change its facts, or create a ranking that survives re-ranking.
- Do not treat any page as a universal ranking verdict. Buyer-fit pages name a use case; they are not a score that applies to every company.
- Firms listed on `/security-firms/` prepare you for the audit. They do not issue the SOC 2 report.
