CertCrowd making governance, risk and compliance simple, affordable and accessible for every SME

BRISBANE, Australia - AussieJournal -- CertCrowd  launches the world's first freemium GRC SaaS—making governance, risk and compliance simple, affordable and accessible for every SME

CertCrowd today announced what it believes is the world's first freemium Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) platform, purpose-built to help small and mid-sized businesses achieve and maintain certification without the usual cost and complexity. The new freemium plan puts powerful compliance tooling in reach of every team, "GRC for the rest of us", so no SME is closed out.

"For too long, GRC software has been priced and designed for enterprises, not the 3–50 person businesses that actually need it to win tenders and prove trust," said Paul Lindsay, founder of CertCrowd. "We're changing that with a freemium model that removes the gatekeeping. If you're serious about ISO or SOC 2, you can start today—no credit card—build momentum, and only upgrade when it makes sense."

"Our promise is simple: make GRC faster, clearer and fairer," Lindsay added. "Guided workflows, templates and automation do the heavy lifting; evidence is captured as you go; and real-time readiness shows exactly where you stand before an audit."
