Outsourced Compliance Office
Your compliance office.
Without building one.
22 owns the compliance work that otherwise lands on your founder, CTO, COO, legal team, or engineers. From policies and risk to SOC 2 readiness and customer security requests, we give growing companies a real compliance function without another full-time hire.
Built for growing companies that need compliance ownership before they need a compliance department.
The problem
Compliance became someone's second job.
It usually starts small.
A customer sends a security questionnaire. Someone asks for a policy. An enterprise deal needs SOC 2. An auditor needs evidence. A vendor needs reviewed.
Then the founder, CTO, COO, lawyer, or engineer who happened to answer the first request quietly becomes responsible for all of it.
That's not a compliance function. That's work without an owner.
22 gives it one.
Send it to 22.
Customer asks a security question?
Send it to 22.
A policy needs updating?
Send it to 22.
SOC 2 work is falling behind?
Send it to 22.
Auditor needs something organized?
Send it to 22.
The goal is simple: build one accountable place for compliance work to go.
22 Compliance

Humans + systems
Software organizes the work.
Someone still has to own it.
Buying compliance software can give your team controls, integrations, reminders, templates, and dashboards.
It doesn't automatically give you a compliance department.
22 provides the operating ownership.
If Groundset is the right fit, we can use it as the foundation for your program. If you're already using Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, or another system, keep it.
The platform can change. The accountability shouldn't.
How it works
From scattered work to an operating function.
01 / Understand
See what exists.
We learn how your company operates, what's driving compliance, what you've already built, and where work is getting stuck.
02 / Build
Create the foundation.
Policies, controls, risks, responsibilities, priorities, and the operating plan get organized around your actual business.
03 / Operate
Run the program.
Recurring reviews, customer requests, compliance activities, documentation, and remediation become part of an intentional cadence.
04 / Respond
Be ready when someone asks.
Customers, auditors, partners, insurers, and leadership get better answers because the work is already being maintained.
Formal assurance
When compliance becomes a customer requirement.
Compliance shouldn't become the reason an enterprise deal slows down. For many growing companies, SOC 2 or HITRUST is the point where informal compliance stops being enough.
22 helps build and operate the program behind the requirement, coordinate the internal work, manage remediation, prepare your organization for external assessment, and keep the program running afterward.
SOC 2
Build an operating control program and prepare for your independent SOC 2 examination.
HITRUST
Organize and operate the security and compliance program supporting your HITRUST effort.
Official HITRUST readiness and validated assessment activities are performed through appropriately authorized HITRUST organizations. 22 focuses on helping your company build, coordinate, and operate the underlying program.
Customer trust
The audit isn't the only work.
Enterprise customers don't stop asking questions because you completed SOC 2.
22 helps turn those answers into maintained institutional knowledge instead of a new research project every time a questionnaire arrives.
Built for companies in the middle.
Too sophisticated to keep improvising compliance. Too lean to build an entire department.
SaaS + Technology
Selling to larger businesses often means proving your security and compliance maturity earlier than expected.

Fast-moving AI teams face the same enterprise requirements as traditional SaaS, plus increasingly detailed questions about data, models, vendors, and AI governance.

Healthcare-adjacent companies often face overlapping customer, security, privacy, and assurance requirements that need real operational ownership.
Learn moreEngagement
Start with the work you actually need owned.
22 Compliance engagements start at $2,500/month for ongoing compliance operations.
More complex assurance programs, substantial implementation, and higher-touch requirements are scoped around the work involved.
Compliance needs an owner.
If it's already becoming somebody's second job, it's probably time to give it a home.
