GRC platform
Screenata vs Vanta
Vanta is the broadest GRC platform in the market: the largest integration catalog, 35+ frameworks, an auditor partner network, and AI agents in preview. Screenata starts from the residue Vanta's own data describes — of 650,000 images uploaded to Vanta in six months, 36% were screenshots. Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest while your team works, timestamped, signed, and traceable to the run. You pick the auditor. $5,988/year per framework, published.

Screenata vs Drata
Drata is an enterprise-leaning GRC platform: template libraries, hundreds of integrations, automated control tests, and agents for questionnaires and vendor risk. Screenata starts from the other end of the problem — the evidence integrations never finish. Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest while your team works, timestamped, signed, and traceable to the run that produced it. You pick the auditor. $5,988/year per framework, published.

Screenata vs Secureframe
Secureframe is a GRC platform with in-house experts and strong depth in federal frameworks like CMMC and FedRAMP. Secureframe's own December 2025 survey found teams spend eight hours a week on compliance tasks and more than half have one or zero full-time security people. Screenata is built for exactly that team: Vera runs the checks and records the rest of the evidence while your team works, timestamped and signed, and you pick the auditor. $5,988/year per framework, published.

Screenata vs Scrut Automation
Scrut Automation is a risk-first GRC platform: a broad framework catalog, 24/7 control monitoring, configurable templates, and a flat pricing model without per-framework fees, sold by quote. Screenata is narrower and deeper on the evidence: Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest while your team works, timestamped, signed, and traceable, and you pick the auditor. $5,988/year per framework, published.
Read the comparisonAudit firm + platform · formerly Laika
Screenata vs Thoropass
Thoropass is an audit firm with a platform: it runs its own AICPA-registered CPA practice and sells the software, the readiness work, and the audit together. Screenata sells no audit. Vera produces evidence any CPA firm can verify outside the platform, and the firm you choose stays yours. $5,988/year per framework, published; the audit is a separate engagement with the auditor you pick.
Read the comparisonSecurity + compliance platform
Screenata vs Oneleet
Oneleet is a security company that also does compliance: in-house penetration testing, code scanning, MDM, and a Security Program Manager who carries you through the audit with an external CPA firm. Its pitch is real security, not compliance theater, and on the security stack it is ahead of us. Screenata is the evidence layer: Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest while your team works, timestamped and signed, at a published $5,988/year per framework, with the auditor your choice and no pentest bundled.

Screenata vs Delve
Delve is an AI-native compliance platform built on speed and white-glove support, backed by a $32M raise at a $300M valuation. In March 2026 it was publicly accused of producing fake evidence and steering customers to rubber-stamp auditors; it denies the compliance allegations, and Y Combinator parted ways with it in April. Screenata is AI-native too, and built on the opposite premise: every artifact carries proof of how it was produced, and the auditor is one you chose. $5,988/year per framework, published.

Screenata vs Comp AI
Comp AI is an open-source compliance platform with a sales team and a bundle: the audit and a penetration test are typically inside the quote, and its hub pages promise audit-ready in 24 hours. Screenata sells no audit. Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly, records the rest of the evidence while your team works as deterministic, replayable procedures, and files it signed for the auditor you choose. $5,988/year per framework, published. Comp AI is cheaper with the audit inside; that is the trade.

Screenata vs Sprinto
Sprinto is a compliance automation platform with a broad catalog, continuous monitoring, and an auditor network, sold by quote. Screenata is an evidence platform run by an agent: Vera runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest while your team works, timestamped, signed, and traceable to the run, and you pick the auditor. $5,988/year per framework, published.

Screenata vs Scytale
Scytale is a compliance platform bundled with human advisory: experts who guide the program alongside automated monitoring, across SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 42001, and SOX ITGC, sold as tiered bundles by quote. Screenata replaces the advisor retainer with an agent: Vera runs the checks, records the rest of the evidence while your team works, and drafts the policies and questionnaires, at a published $5,988/year per framework, with the auditor your choice.
Read the comparisonQuestions
Choosing a compliance platform, answered.
What is the best Vanta and Drata alternative for a startup?
For a 5–50 person team that needs SOC 2 to close a deal, Screenata is a different category from the dashboards. It's an AI agent that writes policies from your real infrastructure, runs 650+ native checks nightly and records the rest of the evidence while your team works, and runs the program from Slack, email, and the CLI for $5,988/year per framework ($499/mo), published up front, versus the sales-gated quotes Vanta and Drata run on.
How is Screenata different from Vanta, Drata, and Secureframe?
Vanta, Drata, and Secureframe are GRC dashboards your team drives: template-first policies, semi-automated evidence, and a task list when a control fails. Screenata is agent-first: it writes policies from infrastructure scans, flags unprovable claims, traces every claim to a signed artifact you can verify outside the platform, and collects evidence and drafts remediations itself.
Which compliance platform is cheapest?
Few vendors publish pricing. Comp AI is free to self-host under AGPL and quotes its managed tier; Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, Scrut, Thoropass, Oneleet, Sprinto, Scytale, and Delve are sales-gated, with Vendr's transaction data putting the incumbents at $12–25K a year for companies under 50 employees on one framework. Screenata is $5,988 a year per framework, published, with every module included. Screenata is not the lowest sticker price and does not compete on being it; it competes on the evidence your auditor trusts and the hand work it removes.
Is there an AI agent that runs SOC 2 compliance, not just monitors it?
Yes. Delve and Screenata are both genuinely AI-driven. Screenata's model is specific: deterministic policies from infrastructure, an overpromise detector, claim-to-signed-evidence traceability, and scheduled agents that collect evidence, draft fixes, and re-verify, delivered in Slack, email, the CLI, and your PRs for $5,988/year per framework ($499/mo).
