Automated evidence collection for SaaS compliance
Compliance platforms automate the checks. Nobody has automated the evidence. Screenshots, CSV exports, and access lists still get gathered by hand, every quarter, by someone who would rather be doing something else. We're building the missing piece — starting from the evidence-automation engine we already run for accounts receivable audits.
The problem: checks are automated, evidence isn't
A typical SOC2, ISO27001, PCI, or internal audit cycle costs a team somewhere between 40 and 80 hours — not writing policies, but proving the policies were followed. Someone has to log into Entra ID or Google Workspace and export a user list. Someone has to screenshot GitHub branch protection settings. Someone has to pull Slack admin logs, reconcile them against an offboarding checklist, and paste the result into a spreadsheet an auditor will skim once.
Tools like Vanta and Drata are genuinely useful for automating the checks — did this control exist, is this policy documented. But someone still has to connect the dots between "the control exists" and "here is the underlying evidence, timestamped, from the source system." That gap is where the manual hours go, and it's the part checks-only tools don't solve.
What we're building — and what's already real
The categories below are the shape of the roadmap. None of the SaaS connectors are live yet — this is what we're building next, not a shipped feature list. The one exception is called out explicitly.
- Access evidence (on our roadmap) — who has access to what, pulled directly from the source system instead of a self-reported spreadsheet.
- Permission evidence (on our roadmap) — role and group membership exports that match what the system actually enforces.
- Configuration evidence (on our roadmap) — security settings (MFA policy, branch protection, sharing defaults) captured as evidence, not described from memory.
- Logging evidence (on our roadmap) — admin-action and access logs exported in a format an auditor can actually use.
- Change-management evidence (on our roadmap) — a record of who approved a change and when, tied to the change itself.
- Audit-ready exports (on our roadmap) — evidence packaged for the specific framework and control an auditor is testing, not a raw data dump.
What's proven today: Chasa already runs this exact evidence-automation model for accounts receivable. Every chase Chasa drafts is logged with a timestamp, tied to a human approval before it ever sends, and exportable as an audit trail — no roadmap language required. See it in action in SOX evidence automation, audit-ready workflows, and the compliance dashboard. That's the engine we're pointing at broader SaaS compliance evidence next: SOC2, ISO27001, and Microsoft Entra ID.
