Opening 2026 · Independent

Compliance,
arranged.

A marketplace where organisations find accredited assessors, auditors, and testing firms - and compare them like for like.

The difference

Regulera performs no assessments. We hold no stake in which provider you choose, and no placement on this platform can be bought.

The problem

Buying an audit is the least audited thing you do.

You are accountable for the outcome, and you are choosing a vendor almost blind. There is no reliable way to see who is qualified, what a correct scope looks like, or what a fair price is.

Word of mouth
One person's experience, on one scope, at one point in time. Unverifiable and unpriced.
Sole-sourced, unbenchmarked
Search and RFP
Every provider answers a different question, so nothing that comes back can be compared.

The party recommending the assessor is often the party billing for the work.

Accreditation body directories
Accurate, but static. A list of names with no scoping, no availability, and no way to engage.

How it works

Four steps,
one structure.

The point of the structure is comparability. If every provider answers the same question in the same format, you can judge the answers.

Step 01

Scope

Answer a guided brief about your environment, obligations, and timing. Regulera turns it into a structured request that every provider answers the same way.

Step 02

Match

Your request reaches providers accredited for that framework - and only those. Credentials are checked with the issuing body, not accepted from a website.

Step 03

Compare

Proposals arrive in a fixed format. Scope, timeline, named team, and price sit side by side, so a real comparison is possible for the first time.

Step 04

Engage

Appoint a provider and track the engagement through to report or certificate, with an auditable record of how you chose.

Neutrality

Five commitments we publish, not five we imply.

A marketplace is only worth using if it isn't quietly working for one side. These are permanent, public, and the standard we expect to be held to.

01

Regulera performs no assessments.We are not an auditor, a QSA, or a testing firm, and we will not become one.

02

No placement can be purchased.No sponsored listings, no paid ranking, no pay-to-appear. Not now, not later.

03

Vetting criteria are published in full.You can read exactly what a provider had to prove before appearing here.

04

Our commercial model is disclosed to both sides.Buyers and providers see the same explanation of how Regulera is paid.

05

Conflicts are declared where they arise.Any relationship that could influence a match is stated on the profile itself.

The registry

Depth first, breadth later.

We are opening with a narrow set of frameworks and enough verified providers to make each one genuinely competitive. A directory of everything, thin everywhere, would help nobody.

Join

Two sides. One market.

We're building supply before demand, so providers get priority review. Buyers joining now help us decide which frameworks open first.

If you need an assessment

Tell us what you're facing.

We'll come to you when there are enough verified providers in your framework to give you a real choice - not before.

No newsletter. We write when your framework opens.

Thanks - you're on the list. We'll be in touch when your framework opens.
If you perform assessments

Apply to be listed.

Founding providers are verified first and shape how proposals are structured. Listing is free through launch.

We verify with the issuing body before listing. Expect a short call.

Received. We'll verify your accreditation and come back to you within a few working days.

Questions

The ones worth asking.

Aren't you just a lead-generation site taking a cut?

We take a fee, and we publish exactly what it is and who pays it - that's commitment four. The distinction that matters isn't whether money changes hands, it's whether money can change where you appear. It can't. No provider can pay to rank higher, appear more often, or be matched to a request they aren't accredited for.

How do I know your vetting means anything?

Because you can read it. The vetting criteria are published in full, so you can judge the standard rather than trust a badge. Accreditations are confirmed with the issuing body - the PCI SSC, the certification body, the relevant regulator - not accepted from the provider's own website.

We already have an assessor we're happy with.

Then keep them. Most organisations come to Regulera for the framework they don't already have covered, for a second opinion on a scope that looks wrong, or when a renewal is the moment to benchmark what they've been paying.

Won't providers game the platform?

There's very little to game. Ranking isn't for sale, matching is driven by accreditation and scope rather than engagement metrics, and credentials are verified externally. Where we get it wrong, the fix is published as a change to the criteria, not handled quietly.

Can I use Regulera to find a more lenient auditor?

No, and we'd rather say so plainly. Regulera doesn't rank providers by how easily they pass clients, and we're not the right platform for audit-shopping. The market we're building only works if a listing here means something to the people reading your report.
