QL Security vs Sprinto

QL Security is a UK-based consultancy providing AI security, governance, compliance, assurance, and ISO/IEC 42001 implementation support for organisations managing AI risk. Services are delivered as an advisory engagement rather than a SaaS product.

Sprinto is a compliance automation (GRC) platform founded in 2020 by Girish Redekar and Raghuveer Kancherla. It operates from Bengaluru and San Francisco through Sprinto Technology Private Limited and Sprinto, Inc. It has raised $31.8 million, most recently a $20 million Series B led by Accel in April 2024, and says more than 4,000 companies use it. The platform automates continuous monitoring, evidence collection, policies, risk and vendor management and audit preparation through 300+ integrations. Sprinto says 25+ frameworks are automated out of the box and 200+ are digitized, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR and PCI DSS. In March 2026 it announced an Autonomous Trust Platform of software agents that refresh evidence, run vendor due-diligence questionnaires and track control gaps to closure; its AI Playground lets teams build their own agents without code. **AI compliance coverage** Sprinto has a dedicated ISO/IEC 42001 offering with policy templates, control coverage, continuous monitoring and expert guidance, and detects AI tool use across browser extensions, managed devices, integrations and SSO sign-ins. Its EU AI Act material is a free applicability checker and a landing page promising automated AI risk classification; the NIST AI RMF is mentioned only as a control set it maps from. AI Governance is sold as an add-on. **Who it's for** Startups and mid-market companies that need SOC 2 or ISO 27001 and want ISO 42001 on the same platform. Named customers include WeWork, Anaconda and Whatfix.
