The Problem

Your deploys are fine. Your documentation isn't.

SOC 2 auditors don't question your engineering. They question your evidence.

"Describe your change management process"

You say "we merge PRs and deploy" — the auditor wants more. They need structured evidence: what changed, who approved it, when it went live.

"Who approved this change?"

You're a solo developer with no second reviewer. The auditor expects separation of duties — you need to show compensating controls.

"Show me evidence this was tested before production"

You tested it. You just didn't document it. Without a record, the auditor can't verify it — and "trust me" isn't evidence.

Features

Everything the auditor asks for. Nothing you don't need.

A change management tracker for SOC 2 that fits how small companies actually work.

Deployment Log

What changed, when, by whom, with a direct link to the PR or commit. Structured records the auditor can review.

Pre-Deployment Checklist

Tests passed, build succeeded, staging verified, rollback plan documented. Check each box before logging the deploy.

Risk Tagging

Flag high-risk changes — database migrations, infrastructure updates, security patches — for extra scrutiny and documentation.

Compensating Controls

Solo developer? Automated CI/CD checks serve as your "approver." Document them as compensating controls the auditor accepts.

How It Works

Three steps. Thirty seconds. Done.

Don't change your deployment process. Just add evidence.

Deploy Your Code

Use your normal process — push to main, merge the PR, run your pipeline. Nothing changes here.

Log the Deployment

30 seconds: title, PR link, risk level, run through the pre-deploy checklist. One form, one record.

Export for Audit

Download a CSV with every change record. Hand it to your auditor. SOC 2 change management — done.

FAQ

Common questions from developers going through SOC 2

I'm a solo developer — how does change management work without a second reviewer?

Document compensating controls: automated CI/CD checks, required test suites, self-review checklists. The auditor accepts these for small teams. The key is showing that you have a defined, repeatable process. This tool helps you formalize and log those compensating controls with every deployment.

Do I need to change my deployment process?

No. Deploy normally — push to main, merge PRs, run your pipeline. Just add 30 seconds of logging after each deployment. The tool fits around your existing workflow, not the other way around.

What about emergency / hotfix deployments?

Log them the same way, flag them as high-risk, and document the justification. Auditors expect emergencies — what they don't accept is undocumented ones. A hotfix with a change record and a "production incident" justification is exactly what they want to see.

Can my whole team use this?

Yes. Everyone logs in with their own account. Each person's changes are attributed to them, and you can filter by user. The auditor sees who made each change — exactly the separation of duties evidence they want.

How do I export data for the auditor?

Click "Export CSV" above the change log table. It downloads every record with timestamps, risk levels, checklist completion, and change descriptions. Hand the CSV to your auditor as SOC 2 change management evidence.
