TruOps vs. Optro.
Optro (formerly AuditBoard) focuses on internal audit and SOX at the Fortune 500. The work underneath, including controls, evidence, TPRM, questionnaires, and risk, is the same work TruOps runs, set up from the documents you already have.
Optro, formerly AuditBoard, is an enterprise GRC suite rooted in internal audit and SOX, used by more than half the Fortune 500 per the company, and now expanding into agentic AI, TPRM, and AI governance. TruOps handles the overlapping security GRC work (controls, continuous evidence, vendor risk, questionnaires, findings, and audit prep), set up from your own documents, with every AI answer cited and people approving every decision. TruOps does not replace Optro as the system of record for a Fortune 500 internal audit and SOX program.
Side by side
Based on Optro's public materials as of September 23, 2026. Where a capability is not described publicly, we say so rather than guess.
| Optro | TruOps | |
|---|---|---|
| The job | Internal audit, SOX, controls, IT and cyber risk, ERM, TPRM, AI governance, BCM | Controls, assessments, monitoring, TPRM, questionnaires, findings, and reporting, with security and compliance first |
| Scale | Over 50% of the Fortune 500 and more than $300M ARR, per Optro | Mid-market, enterprise security programs, MSSPs, and multi-entity organizations |
| AI | Drafting, control mapping, and questionnaire completion, with a human in the loop | Agents with a source and confidence score on every answer, and people approve |
| Service providers | Not described in public materials | White-label environments for each client and a portfolio view |
| Setup | Enterprise implementation | Upload existing documents, and the program is set up from them for review |
What Optro does well
- Depth in internal audit and SOX that few platforms match.
- Proven at very large, complex public companies.
- A broad module set, including business continuity and AI governance (FairNow acquisition).
Where TruOps is different
- Controls and evidence that security already owns, mapped, dated, and reused across SOC 2, ISO, NIST, HIPAA, and whatever comes next.
- TPRM and questionnaires in the same place as compliance.
- Audit prep as a dated assessment with citations.
- A working program set up from the documents you already have, with no services project to launch the first workflow.
When Optro is the better fit
- Internal audit and SOX are the center of your program, and you're standardizing that work on an enterprise suite the Big Four already know.
- You need Optro's specific audit workflow, BCM, or FairNow AI-governance depth as the system of record.
When TruOps fits better
- Your core work is security compliance, vendor risk, questionnaires, and audit prep, and you need it running without an implementation project.
- You're a service provider running many clients under your own brand.
- You want cited AI drafts a reviewer can check, set up from your documents.
Moving from Optro
You can switch one piece at a time. Here's a typical path:
- Step 1Export your policies, reports, framework status, vendors, and risks from your current tool.
- Step 2Upload them. TruOps sets up frameworks, controls, and a pre-filled assessment, with each answer linked to its file, for you to review.
- Step 3Connect the same cloud, identity, and code tools.
- Step 4Run both side by side for one assessment cycle until you trust the results.
- Step 5Move your next framework, entity, or client onto TruOps first, and retire the old seat at renewal.

Questions
Is Optro the same as AuditBoard?
Yes. AuditBoard rebranded as Optro in March 2026.
Should an internal audit team choose TruOps over Optro?
If internal audit and SOX are your core system of record, Optro is built for that. If the work is security compliance, TPRM, questionnaires, and audit prep, TruOps handles it without an implementation project.
Do we have to rip out the tools we already use?
No. TruOps connects to your cloud, identity, endpoint, vulnerability, and code tools. Spreadsheets, prior reports, and policies upload into the Data Room. If you're moving from a SOC 2 automation tool or an enterprise GRC suite, you bring over your frameworks, evidence, vendors, and risks.
Can we bring our existing assessments, control lists, and vendor files?
Yes. Upload workbooks, reports, policies, and vendor exports. TruOps turns them into structured questionnaires, controls, and risks, each linked to the file it came from, for you to review.
Does TruOps replace our auditor, QSA, or certification body?
No. Only a licensed auditor, QSA, C3PAO, or accredited certification body can issue the opinion. TruOps keeps your evidence current, sourced, and dated so fieldwork goes quickly.
