Strike Graph review

Strike Graph stands out for two reasons: a permanent free plan and unusually detailed public pricing. The free Launch plan gives you core GRC for risks, controls and evidence, the SOC 2 security trust services criteria, an activity log, control monitoring, limited policy templates and a 30-minute audit advisor call, enough to start mapping controls before you commit budget. Certify starts at $21,500 per year with one Tier 1 framework such as SOC 2, HIPAA or GDPR, unlimited risks, controls and evidence, full audit workbook export, 50+ cloud integrations, cross-framework mappings and Trust Chain third-party risk management. Scale, from $35,000 per year, allows one framework of any tier, including CMMC, and adds advanced AI, POA&Ms, MCP server access and SBOM monitoring. Extra frameworks are priced openly as yearly add-ons, with ISO 27001 in Tier 2. The downside is that the first paid tier costs far more than Secureframe, Carbide or ComplyJet, so the free plan is the real draw for early teams.
