Switching from Drata?

Stop paying a tax on every framework.

Drata bills you for each framework you add, renewals climb, and your team still chases down every failed test by hand. fullCircle includes every module and every framework, and AI agents do the checking.

Bring your frameworks
  • ✓Every module, unlimited frameworks and users. No per-framework fees.
  • ✓One harmonized control set across SOC 2, ISO, PCI, HIPAA and more.
  • ✓AI agents gather evidence, check it and test controls before your auditor sees them.

What Drata customers say

The dashboard looks easy. Running it isn’t.

Drata demos well. Here’s what reviewers report once the contract is signed, and how fullCircle handles it.

✕ Drata pain

Every new framework costs extra

Additional frameworks are an add-on on every plan. AWS list price: $7,500 per framework on top of the platform fee.12Drata pricing page and AWS Marketplace
✓ fullCircle

Every framework is included. Add ISO 42001 or HIPAA next quarter without a new line item.

✕ Drata pain

Alert noise you have to chase

“Too many false positives, intermittent integrations and workflow quirks for what we’re paying.”3Drata power user, published review interview
✓ fullCircle

AI agents review the evidence against the control and tell you what’s missing, so you fix gaps instead of triaging noise.

✕ Drata pain

Slower to value than the sales pitch

Buyers report 4–8 weeks from purchase to active compliance monitoring, longer than sales estimated.4Capterra reviews, via SaaS Flags
✓ fullCircle

The Framework Deployer stands up your frameworks with controls and evidence requests ready. You’ll watch it happen on the demo.

Renewals that keep climbing

An 8% annual escalator is standard, and buyers report contracts growing from $7,500 to $20,000 within two cycles as frameworks are added.5Third-party pricing analysis
✓ fullCircle

One price covers every module and every framework, so growing your program doesn’t grow your bill line by line.

Bring your own agent

Your AI. Your agents. Our 80-tool MCP server.

Drata’s MCP server is an admin project with 36 tools. fullCircle’s takes minutes to connect, has 80 tools, and lets your assistant, or your own agents, do real work inside your program.

80MCP tools to read and act on controls, evidence, risks and more
  • ✓Read and write. Your assistant doesn’t just answer questions; it updates controls, evidence and risks, and uploads evidence files straight into fullCircle.
  • ✓Connect in minutes. Copy credentials from org settings, add fullCircle as a connector, sign in.
  • ✓Governed by design. Every call runs under the user’s fullCircle role, admins switch AI access on or off per team, every agent write is logged, and agent results wait for human approval.

Illustrative example

🤖

Bring your own agent

Point Claude, Copilot or your in-house agents at fullCircle through the MCP server or API keys and service accounts.

🧩

Custom frameworks

Import your own frameworks and internal standards by CSV. They harmonize onto the same control set as SOC 2 and ISO.

🏢

Copilot Studio and Microsoft 365

Build declarative agents in your Microsoft tenant that read and update fullCircle, inside the tools your company already approved.

🔐

AI controls per team

Admins switch AI on or off for each organization and team, so data that hasn’t opted in never reaches a model.

📊

Your dashboards, your reports

Use the MCP server and REST API to feed custom dashboards, board reporting and the BI tools you already run.

🪪

Enterprise identity

SAML SSO with Okta, Entra ID and JumpCloud, plus Jira, Slack and calendar sync built in.

Admin setup, scope by scope

  1. A Drata admin builds an OAuth configuration in a six-step setup and sets an expiration date.7
  2. Every read and write scope is granted one at a time; write access has to be granted deliberately.7
  3. Add a scope later and it doesn’t reach active sessions until users reconnect.7
  4. In ChatGPT, write tools need Developer Mode (beta) and a confirmation on every write.7
  5. Reviewers say RBAC “need[s] to be exceptionally granular” and custom or on-prem evidence is collected by hand.3

Built to be extended

  1. Bring any MCP-ready assistant or your own agents.
  2. Read and write across controls, evidence and risks, including file uploads.
  3. Custom frameworks, multi-business-unit scopes, per-team AI controls, SSO and APIs for enterprise rollout.

AI that does the work

Your dashboard flags it. Our agents handle it.

A red test is only useful if someone works out why. That someone shouldn’t be you, every night.

✕ Drata

You investigate every failure

  • ✕Buyers investigate failed tests themselves.3
  • ✕Tests run once a day; a fix made after the evening run stays red until a manual rerun or the next night.3
  • ✕Drata’s agents focus on vendor risk, questionnaires and Trust Center setup.6
✓ fullCircle

Agents that check the work for you

  • ✓Evidence agents gather evidence from your systems and request what’s missing from control owners.
  • ✓Evidence Validator reviews evidence against the control and flags what’s missing before your auditor sees it.
  • ✓Test Controls tests your controls against the harmonized set, across every framework at once.
  • ✓Agent teams for policy, risk and vendor work. A human approves every result.

Questions Drata customers ask

How is fullCircle priced?

Every module is included, with unlimited users, frameworks, controls and evidence. We quote it in one call, based on your scope.

Can we keep our current auditor?

Yes. fullCircle includes audit management for working with any external audit firm.

How does switching from Drata work?

Four steps, with expert-backed implementation throughout. We harmonize the frameworks and controls you run today. The Framework Deployer sets them up with evidence requests ready. Integrations and evidence agents start gathering evidence, and you bring over what you already have. Your auditor works in fullCircle’s audit management. You keep your auditor and your audit date.

Drata lists 300+ integrations. What does fullCircle connect to?

Whatever you need evidence from. Instead of a catalog of off-the-shelf connectors that break and leave gaps, we build agents and connectors to your spec, including for custom, internal and on-prem systems. Evidence comes in from the systems you actually run, and agents work out what each control still needs.

What happens to our existing controls and evidence?

That is what the demo is for. We harmonize the frameworks and controls you already run, then show how they deploy into fullCircle with controls and evidence requests ready.

Can we bring our own AI agents?

Yes. The fullCircle MCP server has 80 tools and connects to Claude, Claude Code, Microsoft Copilot, Copilot Studio and Microsoft 365 Copilot agents. Your own agents can connect with API keys and service accounts, read and update controls, evidence and risks, and upload evidence files. fullCircle also connects to SSO, Jira, Slack, calendars and a REST API.

What do we need to send before the demo?

Just the frameworks you tick in the form. A control list or custom framework is optional: reply to the calendar invite with it attached.

Your next framework should be free.

30 minutes. Your own frameworks, harmonized live.
