Thoropass

Thoropass (formerly Laika) is an end-to-end compliance platform founded in 2019 by Sam Li, Eva Pittas, and Austin Ogilvie. Headquartered in New York, the company has raised $98 million from investors including J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Fin Capital, and Canapi Ventures. The company rebranded from Laika to Thoropass to better reflect its full compliance offering.

What sets Thoropass apart is its bundled platform-plus-audit model: unlike competitors that are software-only, Thoropass provides in-house auditors alongside its compliance automation platform. This means organizations can manage readiness, evidence collection, and the audit itself through a single vendor. The platform supports 30+ frameworks including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, FedRAMP, HITRUST, CCPA, NIST CSF, and DORA.

Key capabilities include automated evidence collection, continuous control monitoring, AI-powered audit preparation (First Pass AI), penetration testing with 90-day free retesting, vendor risk management, security questionnaire automation, and Zones for managing compliance across regions or product lines. The combined software-and-audit approach typically reduces the coordination overhead of working with separate platform and audit vendors.

Compliance platform starts at ~$8,700/year (first framework included). SOC 2 audit subscription starts at ~$5,800/year. Median contract approximately $30K/year for platform + audit bundle. Pricing partially disclosed: starting points visible but full quotes require sales consultation. Bundled pricing is a key differentiator vs software-only competitors.
