Drata vs Oneleet vs Screenata
Drata is a mature GRC automation dashboard with a customizable autopilot; Oneleet is a YC-backed, security-first platform that bundles penetration testing and real security work with compliance. The choice is breadth-and-maturity vs security-substance. Screenata is the agent-first alternative: rather than a dashboard, Vera writes policies from your infrastructure and operates the program for $499/month per framework.
Side by side
Drata, Oneleet, and Screenata, line by line.
The detail
How Drata and Oneleet actually differ.
Drata and Oneleet both serve startups pursuing SOC 2, yet they come from different premises. Drata is a mature GRC platform whose signature is a customizable autopilot, control mapping, tailored workflows, and a Trust Center your team configures. Oneleet, YC-backed (S22) and founded by a pentester, is security-first: it bundles a real penetration test and hands-on security work with the compliance software, on the belief that a clean report should reflect genuine security, not theater. The axis is configurable automation and maturity on one side, bundled security substance on the other.
Drata wins for teams that want to own and tune their program: its autopilot bends to custom control language, its ecosystem is broad, and it's a known quantity to auditors. Oneleet wins for technical founders who'd rather buy security and compliance together, the bundled pentest and services mean fewer vendors and a badge backed by real work. The tradeoff is breadth versus depth-of-security: Drata is the more complete, more configurable GRC platform, while Oneleet intentionally narrows toward startups that value security substance over feature surface area.
Screenata sits apart from both by removing the dashboard as the thing you operate. Vera reads your infrastructure, writes policies deterministically from real config, and collects roughly 70% of evidence into cryptographically signed, timestamped artifacts, while integrating any pentest you commission rather than running it. Choose Drata for a customizable autopilot you drive, Oneleet for bundled pentest and security work, and Screenata if a 5-50 person team wants an agent to run SOC 2 end to end from Slack and the CLI, month to month at $499/month per framework, with independently verifiable evidence.

Drata vs Oneleet, answered.
What's the difference between Drata and Oneleet?
Drata is a dashboard-driven GRC platform with a customizable autopilot. Oneleet is security-first and bundles penetration testing with compliance for startups that want real security work. Screenata is agent-first: it writes policies from your infrastructure and runs the program for you at $499/month per framework.
Which is better for a YC startup, Drata or Oneleet?
Oneleet is popular in the YC ecosystem and bundles pentest, appealing if you want security substance in one vendor. Drata is broader and more mature. If you'd rather the compliance program simply be run for you, Screenata is the agent-first option at $499/month per framework.
Does Drata include a penetration test like Oneleet?
No, Drata integrates pentest results but doesn't perform the test, so you source one separately; Oneleet bundles the pentest as part of its offering. Screenata also integrates the pentest report you obtain rather than conducting it, and focuses on running the compliance program itself.
Is Oneleet or Drata more customizable?
Drata is the more configurable GRC platform, with custom control mapping and tunable workflows built for teams that want to shape their program. Oneleet is deliberately more opinionated and security-focused. If you'd rather not configure anything, Screenata's agent derives and runs the program from your infrastructure for $499/month per framework.
Can I switch from Drata to Oneleet?
Yes, but migrating means moving integrations and rebuilding evidence in a different platform with a different scope, since Oneleet bundles security services Drata doesn't. Screenata is month to month and re-derives policies and evidence from your live infrastructure, avoiding a manual re-import.
