Keel GRC

About

Keel is a compliance platform designed to help organizations prepare for audits and demonstrate their readiness to stakeholders. Built for companies that need to prove their governance, risk, and compliance posture, Keel simplifies the audit preparation process by organizing documentation, tracking compliance requirements, and providing evidence of controls in one place.

The platform serves teams across finance, operations, and compliance functions who want to reduce the friction of audit cycles. Instead of scrambling to gather scattered evidence when auditors arrive, organizations can maintain an up-to-date, audit-ready repository throughout the year.

Keel is particularly valuable for growing companies navigating their first audits or those managing multiple compliance frameworks. By centralizing the evidence collection and documentation process, the platform helps teams save time, reduce stress, and approach audits with confidence. It transforms audit preparation from a last-minute scramble into a manageable, ongoing practice that demonstrates organizational maturity and control.

FAQ

What does it cost?

4 plans, all public: Free $0, Starter $99/mo, Pro $299/mo, Enterprise $1,999/mo. The MSP / Partner plan is quoted per client.

Do I need a consultant?

No. Guided setup, one-click pre-mapped control sets and 75+ policy templates get you moving.

Which frameworks are live?

25+ are live today, all on the same crosswalked control library.

Can I try it first?

Yes. A 14-day Pro trial on every new workspace, no credit card. The demo needs no signup.

What is Keel?

Keel is a self-serve GRC (governance, risk & compliance) and vendor-risk platform for small and mid-sized companies, across security, privacy, and quality frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST CSF, and ISO 9001. You set up controls, collect evidence, manage policies and vendors, and publish a trust center - without a consultant or an enterprise price tag.

Which frameworks does Keel support?

One control library, crosswalked across every framework you apply: map a control once and it satisfies the matching requirements everywhere. Keel authors and scores content for ISO/IEC 27001:2022, CIS Critical Security Controls v8.1, PCI DSS 4.0.1, SOC 2, SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley) Section 404, NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5, FedRAMP Rev5 Class B, FedRAMP Rev5 Class C, FedRAMP Rev5 Class D, FedRAMP 20x, FedRAMP Consolidated Rules 2026, NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 2, HIPAA, GDPR, COPPA, Google Play Families, Amazon Appstore Child-Directed Apps, Apple App Store Kids Category, PIPEDA, ISO 9001:2015, ESG Essentials 1.1, US Employment Law - Federal Baseline 1.1, and the AI governance shelf (AI Governance Essentials 1.0, ISO/IEC 42001:2023, NIST AI Risk Management Framework 1.0, and EU AI Act). NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 and AI Governance Essentials 1.0 are free on every plan.

Does Keel get me certified?

Keel gets you audit-ready: it organizes your controls, evidence, and policies and shows your readiness against each framework. The certificate or attestation itself is issued by an independent auditor - Keel is not a certification body and does not perform the audit. We make the audit far faster and cheaper to get through.

Do I need a consultant to use it?

No. Keel is self-serve. A guided setup walks you from zero to a working program in an afternoon, and one-click starter control sets pre-map a framework for you. You can start free, no sales call.

How does pricing work?

Every new workspace starts with a 14-day free trial of Pro (no credit card). After that there is a free plan (NIST CSF and AI Governance Essentials free, plus 1 paid framework, monthly), then Starter, Pro, and Enterprise tiers that add scale (frameworks, seats, vendors, storage, AI credits) and automation, plus a dedicated MSP / Partner plan for managed-service providers and consultancies. Add-ons like extra frameworks and Trust Center Pro (white-label and a custom domain) are billed on top of your plan, and AI credit packs top up the paid plans, where AI assist is included. See the pricing page for details.

Will we outgrow it, or get hit with a price rise at renewal?

The published prices are the prices: Free $0, Starter $99/mo, Pro $299/mo, Enterprise $1,999/mo, with an annual option on each paid tier shown on the pricing page. There is no minimum term and no automatic annual uplift. You can cancel yourself from billing settings at any time, effective at the end of the period you have already paid for. On the free plan, growing usually means adding a framework as a monthly à la carte add-on. On Starter, reaching the framework limit means moving to Pro, which includes every framework. NIST CSF and AI Governance Essentials stay free on every plan. Each tier's seats, vendors, storage, and AI credits are published in the comparison table on the pricing page, so the next step up is visible before you need it. Your plan's list price is locked for 24 months from the day you subscribe, so a rise in the published price does not reach your subscription before then. Prices are in USD, and any change to them is published on the pricing page.
