SOC 2 cost calculator
Build a defensible first-year budget by employee count and cloud complexity. This calculator never presents modeled assumptions as collected market data.
A planning range, not a live quote. Scope changes, control gaps and auditor capacity can move the final fee.
What drives the estimate
Control design, policies, integrations and evidence readiness.
Evidence sampling, questions, exceptions and report review.
Validate scope before treating any estimate as a budget.
Methodology and assumptions
The model scales transparent baseline ranges by employee count, environment complexity, audit type, criteria count, support model and urgency. It separates the independent audit, software and readiness work so buyers do not mistake one fee for the entire program.
What the model includes
Independent audit fees, compliance tooling, and optional readiness support. It excludes internal remediation engineering, penetration testing, legal work, and insurance because those vary materially by scope.
When to request quotes
Use the estimate for planning, then request written quotes after defining Trust Services Criteria, audit type, observation period, systems in scope, and required completion date.
