The Co-Sourcing Engagement Platform For Clients Who Aren’t Ready for GRC.

Real-time PBC tracking, evidence collection, and client accountability—without requiring GRC adoption or impacting your client's workflow.

The Hidden Cost of Managing SOX PBCs Through Email & Spreadsheets

Email and Excel feel free, but the real cost is margin loss, delays, unpredictability, and damaged credibility.

A Right-Sized SOX Solution Between Spreadsheet Chaos & GRC Overkill

Your clients aren't ready for enterprise GRC—but you can't keep managing through email chaos. AGREED delivers the structure co-sourcing teams need, without enterprise complexity clients resist.

Excel & Email

Too Light

Zero visibility, manual chaos, version
control nightmares.

Goldilocks Zone

SOX-specific workflows, zero learning
curve, instant visibility.

Enterprise GRC

Too Heavy

Expensive, 6-18 month setup,
overwhelms clients.

Right-sized for where your clients are — and where your engagements need to be.
