Scytale Pricing, Features and SOC 2 Frameworks (2026)

Scytale is a compliance automation platform, founded in 2021 and based in New York, that pairs AI-driven software with a dedicated in-house GRC expert included in the subscription. It covers SOC 2 alongside ISO 27001, HIPAA and a long list of other frameworks, and it positions itself for a wide range of buyers, from startups and budget-conscious teams to mid-market and enterprise organizations running several programs at once.

On SOC 2, the model combines automation with a named person. The Scy AI agent handles work such as answering security questionnaires and collecting evidence, while the assigned GRC expert guides the program through readiness. Scytale does not perform audits itself: an independent CPA firm issues the report, and a partner audit can be added as a separate line item. Virtual CISO and DPO services are also available as add-ons rather than part of the base package.

Coverage is broad. Scytale lists around 80 frameworks, including PCI DSS, CMMC, ISO 42001, DORA, NIS2, FedRAMP, BSI C5 and SOX ITGC, the last supported through its 2025 acquisition of AudITech. It reports roughly 150 integrations and includes a trust center, policy templates, vendor risk management and questionnaire automation. On G2 it holds a 4.7 out of 5 rating across 763 reviews. There is no public rate card; third-party reporting puts entry pricing at about $7,500 per year for the platform plus one framework.

Teams that want software and a human compliance lead under one contract, particularly those planning to add frameworks such as ISO 42001 or SOX ITGC later, will find Scytale relevant. Before signing, buyers should map out the full scope, since pentesting, extra frameworks, vCISO or DPO support and the audit itself are all priced separately. The entry figure may therefore understate the total cost of a multi-framework program, so a line-by-line quote is worth requesting.
