Internal audit software for small teams
A team of one to ten does not need an enterprise GRC programme. It needs one register, findings that close only after a second person checks them, and a leadership pack that is not rebuilt by hand.
The usual starting point is Excel. That is the right tool for the first matrix and for the sums. It becomes the wrong system of record when a second person has to trust the close, or when management or the audit committee expects a pack from the same records.
What a small team actually uses
- Import of the risk and control matrix you already have.
- An audit universe and a plan, once you are past a single register.
- Work papers with a preparer and a different reviewer.
- Findings with an owner, a date, and independent verification.
- A leadership pack printed from those records.
Price, checked 15 November 2026
Starter is a flat USD 129 a month for up to 3 users: findings follow-up, independent verification, the leadership pack, and import from Excel. Team is USD 49 per user per month, billed yearly, for up to 10 users, and adds the risk and control matrix, the plan, work papers, and AI that stays off until you switch it on. You pay nothing until you accept the first leadership pack. Control owners who only answer a follow-up do not need a paid seat.
