Vanta vs Rippling

Vanta is purpose-built for startup compliance, with 400+ deep integrations, 35+ frameworks, and the Vanta Agent embedded throughout for a faster, more automated compliance experience that scales with you. Rippling Automated Compliance covers controls within its HR ecosystem, but compliance requirements extend far beyond people data, with prospects and auditors expecting evidence across cloud infrastructure, vendors, and development tools. With support limited to SOC 2 and no cloud integrations, teams can end up spending more time gathering evidence manually than building critical security foundations.

Cloud compliance that goes where Rippling can't

If your infrastructure lives in AWS, GCP, or Azure, Rippling has no visibility into it—meaning evidence gaps, manual work, and audit risk. Vanta's cloud integrations run hourly automated tests across your entire stack, and when something fails, AI-generated Terraform snippets tell your team exactly how to fix it.

We chose Vanta over AuditBoard and Safebase because Vanta provided a more intuitive platform for automating compliance and governance tasks, which significantly reduced the time spent on manual processes. UX/UI is amazing btw.”

We wanted faster deal cycles and to make sure that security does not slow anything down. Thanks to Vanta, we get to focus more on building and less on security. Setting the foundation for compliance early was the key for us.”

Vanta has saved us hundreds of hours and well over six figures in potential lost deals or added headcount. If you're serious about security, start early. I recommend even the smallest teams bring on Vanta from day one—because by the time enterprise buyers ever ask, you'll already be ready.
