The audit execution platform
for compliance & risk teams
The only platform that runs COSO ERM 2017 and IIA Internal Audit Standards end-to-end — from board objectives and stakeholder concerns through risks, controls, engagements, workpapers and IIA-grade findings. Modern UX, AI inside the workflow, mid-market pricing.
14-day trial · No credit card · Free Stakeholder Concerns Library
The COSO ERM × IIA cascade — end-to-end in one product
AuditBoard / Workiva / MetricStream sell the components. Barafaa is the cascade.
ONE PLATFORM · THE FULL ERM + INTERNAL AUDIT LIFECYCLE
The Barafaa Manifesto
Audit deserves the same craft as the strategy it protects.
Most GRC tools were built to collect evidence — checklists wrapped in a CRM. They turn auditors into ticket-closers and boards into spectators.
Barafaa is built for the people who actually execute audits — tracing strategy through risk to control to finding, with COSO and IIA in the spine and AI in the workflow.
Audit cycle time reduced
Faster finding closure
Frameworks, one spine
Pre-mapped controls
Why now
Four pressures collided in 2026.
The audit function is being asked to do five times the work with the same headcount, and to defend it in front of regulators who now have personal liability on the table.
EU AI Act, DORA, CSRD, SEC cyber rules
Four major regimes hit in 18 months. Boards now sign personally. Spreadsheets fail in committee.
Your business is shipping AI faster than you can govern it
ISO 42001 and the EU AI Act demand documented oversight of every model touching customers or staff.
Auditors keep finding the same gaps three years running
Without traceability from strategy to control, remediation never sticks. Repeat findings sink credibility.
AuditBoard / Workiva cost six figures to even start
Mid-market needs the same rigour without the seven-month implementation and the $250K floor.
13 audit domains, one cascade
From SOX to SOC 2, GDPR to DORA, ISO 9001 to Yellow Book — all running on the same Objectives → Risks → Controls → Engagements → Findings model. Click any tile for the deep dive.
AI inside the audit, not bolted onto reports
8 agentic AI features
Each one operates on the live audit data — engagements, findings, evidence, risks. No copy-paste. Human approval at every gate.
Autonomous Audit Agent
AI agent reads your engagement scope, sampling guidance, and prior findings — then drafts the procedures, runs the test, and proposes a finding. Human approval at every gate.
Evidence Auto-Linker
Upload an artefact and the linker matches it to the right control(s) across all your frameworks — SOC 2, ISO, NIST, HIPAA — based on filename, content, and the control's expected-evidence text.
Voice → Workpaper
Real-time scribe captures your control walkthrough or interview. AI structures the transcript into an IIA-grade workpaper with process steps, evidence cited, exceptions, and a draft rating.
Continuous Risk Assessment
AI re-scores your risk register as evidence lands, controls fail, or KRIs trigger. Risk Score Changes surface what moved, why, and which finding caused the shift.
Board-Pack Q&A
Audit committee members ask the pack questions in plain English: "What's our biggest open finding?" "Which controls regressed this quarter?" Answers cite the underlying engagement.
Okta CCM
Continuous Controls Monitoring against Okta — joiner / mover / leaver, MFA enforcement, privileged access, lifecycle exceptions. Automated evidence flowing into the controls library.
Vendor SOC 2 Ingest
Drop a vendor's SOC 2 PDF. The ingester pulls test exceptions, sub-service organisations, CUECs, and the bridge-letter date — all linked into your vendor risk register.
Regulatory Horizon
AI scans regulator publications, framework updates, and standards bodies. Surfaces what's coming, when it bites, and which of your controls / objectives are at risk.
One product, six clear users
Pick your seat — we'll show you the surfaces that matter for your workflow. Everyone shares the same data model, so the CAE's findings are the assessor's evidence and the CFO's SOX walkthroughs.
Run the COSO cascade end-to-end — Objectives → Risks → Controls → Engagements → Findings — without bolting AuditBoard onto five other tools.
How we get you live
Most internal-audit platforms quote 6–8 week implementations. Barafaa's audit-execution model is self-serve from Day 1 — implementation services available for Enterprise tier when procurement requires them.
Import controls + run scope advisor
Pick frameworks (SOC 2 / ISO / SOX ITGC / NIST), seed the controls library, run the AI scope advisor against your tech stack. Set up Objectives + map them to risks.
Plan your first engagement
Build the audit plan, generate procedures, walk the AI Auditor Simulator through a dry run, invite assessors to the Auditor Portal.
Ship your first board pack
Findings are logged in 5 C's format, remediation tracker is live, the Audit Committee Pack auto-assembles from the actual audit work — not a separate deck.
Internal audit teams, consulting firms, external assessors, and risk committees across these sectors:
“We replaced two spreadsheets, an audit-management tool, and a finding-tracker — Barafaa's the first product where the COSO objective actually shows up next to the finding it caused.”
“The Implemented Controls Health dashboard gave our committee something they'd asked for for two years: maturity × effectiveness × strength on one screen.”
“Auditor Portal + Evidence Packages saved us a full week of back-and-forth on our SOC 2 Type II.”

Frequently asked
The questions buyers actually ask.
Every tenant is isolated with strict Postgres Row-Level Security keyed to a company_id, so two customers can never see each other's data — even by accident. Integration tokens are encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM (Web Crypto), all traffic is TLS, and you can rotate the encryption key without downtime. We log every admin override and company switch to an immutable audit log. SSO and SAML are available on Business and Enterprise.
