Some vendors pay us to be assessed or listed. Payment never changes a score, a rank or a verdict.

Two of the 19 SOC 2 audit firms below put a dollar fee on their SOC 2 page on October 29, 2026. Zero Day CPA shows Type I from $5,000 and Type II from $7,000. Auditsuisse shows Type I from $3,000, Type II from $5,000 and both together from $7,000, priced by headcount. The other 17 firms list no fee. A-LIGN and Insight Assurance name fixed-fee pricing without a figure, and Linford & Company says the cost varies with report type, scope and size. A licensed CPA firm issues every SOC 2 report, so the platform that prepares the evidence does not set the audit fee.

The two firms that show a fee

Firm	Type I	Type II	Billing and scope
Zero Day CPA	From $5,000	From $7,000	50% at signing, 50% at draft report. Final fee depends on scope.
Auditsuisse	From $3,000	From $5,000	From $7,000 for Type I plus Type II. Fixed fees by company headcount.

Both sit far below the $20,000 to $150,000 or more that A-LIGN estimates for a SOC 2 audit, which the who performs a SOC 2 audit guide quotes. Both are starting prices, and the SOC 2 cost guide covers what moves a final quote.

All 19 firms

A firm counts as showing a fee when its SOC 2 page, or a fee page one click from it, carries a dollar figure for the audit. The sample is 9 of the 10 audit firms that Vanta, Drata or Scrut name as partners, plus 10 other firms that audit SOC 2 for software companies.

Firm	Why in the sample	Fee	Cost wording
Zero Day CPA	Other audit firm	Yes	Type I from $5,000, Type II from $7,000
Auditsuisse	Other audit firm	Yes	Type I from $3,000, Type II from $5,000, both from $7,000

Fees change, so both figures carry the date October 29, 2026.

Platforms, auditors and the fee

A compliance platform prepares evidence and the audit firm examines it. Vanta, Drata and Scrut each name a partner network, and a contractor can also bring its own auditor.

Thoropass is the one platform in the SOC 2 software ranking that delivers the audit through its own CPA firm. Its audit and platform prices sit in the pricing study.

A first SOC 2 report also needs readiness work before the audit, and the SOC 2 checklist lists what an auditor asks for. A company still at the seed stage can start from the startup guide. Penetration testing is a separate bill, covered in the penetration test cost guide.
