Vanta AI

Vanta AI is an AI-powered compliance, security, risk, and trust platform designed to help organizations automate GRC workflows and continuously maintain their security posture. Its Vanta AI Agent works across the Vanta platform to help teams draft policies, answer compliance questions, review evidence, complete security questionnaires, identify issues, and accelerate remediation.

The Vanta AI Agent acts as an always-on GRC assistant. It can search across policies, controls, frameworks, tests, and documents, provide cited answers, perform evidence checks, and assist teams with compliance workflows. Depending on the plan, it can also automate policy onboarding, map controls to policies, summarize policy changes, track SLAs, and manage issues.

Vanta AI automates security questionnaire responses. It uses an organization’s knowledge base and previous responses to suggest answers to questionnaires from prospective customers. Vanta reports a 95% acceptance rate for its suggested questionnaire responses.

AI-powered compliance automation is another core capability. Vanta continuously collects evidence from connected systems, monitors controls, maps controls across frameworks, identifies gaps, and provides AI-generated remediation guidance. Its platform integrates with 300+ systems to automate compliance workflows.

Vanta AI also supports third-party risk management. It can help review vendor security documentation, monitor vendor attack surfaces, identify potential issues, and support remediation workflows.

For engineering teams, Vanta AI can generate personalized remediation snippets for technologies such as Terraform, AWS CLI, and CloudFormation. This helps developers address compliance and security issues without manually translating audit findings into technical fixes.

Vanta has expanded its AI capabilities into AI governance and compliance. Its platform supports frameworks including ISO 42001 and NIST AI RMF, helping organizations manage AI-specific risks, controls, policies, evidence, and governance workflows.

Vanta was founded in 2018 by Christina Cacioppo after her experience dealing with the manual process of achieving SOC 2 compliance. The company has evolved from automated SOC 2 compliance into what it now describes as an Agentic Trust Platform, combining compliance, risk management, security monitoring, and trust management.
