SOC 2 / multi-framework compliance automation (GRC) platform · verified
Scrut Automation
Scrut does not publish a pricing page; the only confirmed number is a $15,000/12-month AWS Marketplace tier capped at 20 employees, and independent write-ups describe having to go through a sales call to get a real quote.
Independent analysis (Stitchflow) flags that SCIM provisioning is only reported for Enterprise plans and is not publicly documented, which is worth checking directly if enterprise identity provisioning is a hard requirement. Integrations-count claims are inconsistent across the vendor's own pages and third parties (80+ per Scrut's FAQ page, 150+ per G2's listing, 200+ per a competitor's blog).
Desk research against public sources. Every figure below carries its source and the date we retrieved it.
What Scrut Automation does.
Seven capabilities, graded the same way for every platform in the directory. "Not established" means we looked and could not confirm it, not that the feature is missing.
| Capability | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Automated evidence collection | Yes | Vendor states it pulls compliance evidence directly from connected tools (cloud, IdP, dev, HRMS, etc.). Source |
| Auditor workspace | Yes | Auditors get invited, role-based access; findings/requests tracked in-product; automated evidence pull scoped to the audit project. Source |
| Trust center | Yes | Customizable, brandable public/gated trust portal with custom domain support. Source |
| Security questionnaire answering | Yes | AI-assisted ("Scrut Teammates") auto-fill of security questionnaires from an approved-answer library, plus CSV/Chrome-extension export. Source |
| Enterprise admin (SSO, SCIM, RBAC) | Partial | Native SSO login is documented for multiple IdPs (Okta, Azure AD, PingOne). Role-based/least-privilege access is documented on the vendor security page. SCIM is reported by an independent integration vendor (Stitchflow) as available only on Enterprise plans with no public endpoint documentation, so provisioning depth is unconfirmed. Source |
| SCIM 2.0 provisioning | Yes | Established from Okta's own integration catalogue rather than from Scrut, which does not mention SCIM anywhere on its site or help centre. A specialist directory reports it as Enterprise-only and Okta-only, but that same page contradicts itself between its summary table and its prose, so we carry the capability and not the tier. Source |
| Continuous control testing | Yes | Vendor describes 24/7 automated control monitoring with gap alerts, not point-in-time checks. Source |
| Native multi-framework support | Partial | Core frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI DSS, HIPAA, NIST AI RMF, ISO 27017/27018/27701/42001, CCPA) each have a dedicated solution page. The vendor also describes a shared "Unified Control Framework" with 1,500+ overlapping controls behind the broader "70+ frameworks" claim, which implies some of the long tail is crosswalk-mapped rather than independently built; not determinable from public pages which is which.

7 frameworks, and how well each is established.
A framework on a marketing page is a vendor claim, not a confirmed capability. We grade the difference rather than repeating the list.
| Framework | Evidence | Note |
|---|---|---|
| SOC 2 | Vendor-claimed | Dedicated SOC 2 solution page and SOC 2 hub. Source |
| ISO 27001 | Vendor-claimed | Source |
| GDPR | Vendor-claimed | Source |
| HIPAA | Vendor-claimed | Source |
| PCI DSS | Vendor-claimed | Source |
| NIST AI RMF | Vendor-claimed | Source |
| CCPA | Vendor-claimed | Listed as a supported framework in site nav/footer; no dedicated solution page found. Source |
Scrut Automation does not publish a price.
Getting a number requires a sales conversation. Anything below comes from reported quotes or marketplace listings, and is labeled as such.

Auditor fees are separate from all of these. See the SOC 2 audit cost guide for what the audit itself runs.
Who actually issues the report.
Scrut is compliance software, not a CPA firm; it does not issue the SOC 2 report itself. The Audit Center gives an independent, licensed auditor a scoped, invited view into the customer's evidence and controls so they can run the actual examination inside the platform, and Scrut maintains a partner directory (75+ partners per its own about-us page) that can introduce customers to auditing firms, but the attestation itself comes from a separate CPA firm.
Software prepares you for the audit; a licensed CPA firm performs it and issues the report. If you have not picked a firm yet, we list independent SOC 2 auditors separately, and we are not one of them.
Who Scrut Automation is for, and who it is not.
Good fit
A company juggling multiple overlapping frameworks that wants one platform for evidence collection, a trust portal, and questionnaire automation instead of point tools for each.
Poor fit
A very small startup on a tight budget: the only publicly disclosed price point (AWS Marketplace, <=20 employees) is $15,000/year for the platform alone, and third-party analysts report real first-year cost (with audit and pentest fees) reaching $40,000-$70,000.
Typical buyer: Growth-stage SaaS/tech companies (roughly 20-500 employees) pursuing SOC 2 alongside one or more additional frameworks (ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS)..
