Send us the clients who aren't ready yet.
Xorabyte is an independent SOC 2 and ISO 27001 readiness partner. When a client needs compliance work you'd rather not take on, hand them to us. We get them ready, and you keep the relationship.
What you get
Readiness off your plate
We do the slow, hands-on work: gap assessment, policies, control implementation, and evidence. Your team stays on the work it is built for.
Independence stays clean
An audit firm can't build a client's controls and then attest to them. We're independent, so the readiness work never lands on your side of that line.
Stalled prospects become audits
A client who isn't ready today is a stalled deal. We get them ready, and they come back to you for the audit.
Cleaner audits
Clients we prepare will arrive with controls in place and evidence organized. That means fewer exceptions and less back-and-forth.
You stay in the loop
Regular check-ins and visibility into the readiness work, so you always know where your client stands.
Canadian, privacy fluent
Canadian delivery with PIPEDA and Quebec Law 25 experience, for clients who don't want a US-only shop.
No referral fees, by design
We don't pay or accept referral fees, commissions, or revenue splits. We bill the client directly for readiness, and you bill them for your own work. CPA rules bar audit firms from compensation tied to an assurance client, so we built the program without it, and it works the same way for every partner.
Who it is for
CPA and audit firms
Clients come to you wanting a SOC 2 before they're control-ready. Send them to us for readiness and get them back ready for the exam.
MSPs and IT providers
Your clients ask about SOC 2 and you'd rather not become a compliance shop. We run the compliance program, you keep running their IT.
Lawyers, fractional CFOs, and accelerators
Your clients hit a SOC 2 requirement or a security questionnaire in a deal. Send them to someone who will get them ready without a full-time hire.

Frequently asked
Do you pay referral fees?
No, and we don't accept them either. We bill the client for readiness, and you bill the client for your own work. Keeping money out of the referral protects your independence and keeps the focus on the client.
Will you send clients back to us?
Honestly, not yet. We're a young, founder-led practice and we won't promise referrals we can't deliver. As our client base grows, clients who are ready for an audit will need a firm, and we'll point them to the firms we've worked with.
Do you compete with audit firms?
No. We don't perform audits or issue reports. We do the readiness work that comes before the audit.
Which tools do you work with?
Whatever your client already uses: Drata, Vanta, other readiness platforms, or plain spreadsheets. We don't make clients switch tools.
What does it cost the client?
Readiness is fixed-scope and quoted up front. See our pricing page for current packages.
