Sequifi Achieves SOC 2 Type II Audit Readiness in Under 60 Days with Akitra Andromeda, an Agentic AI-Powered Compliance Automation Platform
Akitra Andromeda’s Agentic AI-powered automation capabilities and proactive support enabled Sequifi to replace manual processes with audit-ready confidence, accelerating growth and strengthening enterprise trust
Sequifi, an HR tech platform, helps home service businesses simplify back-office operations with tools for onboarding, applicant tracking, payroll, and payments. As the company scaled and secured enterprise partnerships, proving its commitment to data security and compliance became essential. SOC 2 Type II attestation quickly moved from a checkbox to a business-critical requirement.
The Challenge
Before partnering with Akitra, Sequifi’s compliance efforts stalled:
Delays with Previous Provider: After more than a year with another platform, Sequifi had achieved only SOC 2 Type I. The process was slow, confusing, and lacked meaningful guidance.
Enterprise Demands: Prospective enterprise customers required SOC 2 Type II compliance as a prerequisite for deeper partnerships.
Limited Visibility: The team had little clarity into compliance gaps, making it difficult to prioritize and prepare for audits.
Resource Constraints: With a lean HR and technical team, Sequifi needed automation and proactive support without adding overhead.
“With Akitra, the experience was completely different – seamless, proactive, and fast. Within 60 days, we transitioned from onboarding to being SOC 2 Type II audit-ready, with full visibility into risks, policies, and processes. What stood out most was the hands-on support from their team. They didn’t just give us tools; they walked us through the entire journey, ensuring we were confident and prepared at every step.”
