💡 SaaS Idea: SQ-Wizard Lite – Security Questionnaire Co‑Pilot for Sub‑50 SaaS
Web app that ingests your security docs (SOC2/Vanta/Drata exports, policies, diagrams) and cloud evidence (AWS/GCP/Okta) to auto-answer enterprise security questionnaires across portals (OneTrust, ProcessUnity, Aravo) with a human-in-the-loop reviewer. Includes a hosted /security portal, versioned answers library, redline diffing between questionnaires, and deal-tracker to forecast time-to-close blocked by security. Integrates with JIRA and Google Drive. Priced for startups ($99–$299/mo).
Platform: web
