Company Description LowerPlane helps startups and growing companies become audit-ready without the overhead of traditional compliance programs by automating and streamlining key processes. The platform supports major frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, and AI governance through guided workflows and centralized evidence management. Built for SaaS teams handling security reviews and vendor questionnaires, LowerPlane replaces fragmented spreadsheets and consulting-heavy approaches with a faster, more operational compliance model. Teams use LowerPlane to generate customizable policies, automate questionnaire responses, track controls and readiness, and prepare for audits with structured workflows. The company’s mission is to lower the barrier to enterprise-grade trust so organizations can move through audits faster, build customer confidence earlier, and scale securely.
