Vanta Is Built for One Company. Nuronus Is Built for MSPs.
Vanta is single-tenant compliance software for a company’s internal GRC team, sold on a quote. Nuronus is a multi-tenant platform so an MSP can run HIPAA, SOC 2, and CMMC across 20 small-business clients from one dashboard — with public flat pricing and a free plan.
Free for 2 clients. All features included. No credit card required.
Pricing
How Much Does Vanta Cost?
Vanta does not publish a self-serve rate card. Quotes scale with headcount and frameworks. Buyer-reported and marketplace starting prices for a small company on one framework commonly land around $10,000–$14,000 per year. That is the cost for one organization. An MSP reselling Vanta-style work to 10 clients would be buying 10 of those licenses — or sending each client to buy their own. Nuronus is $99/mo for 10 clients.

At a Glance
Internal GRC vs. MSP Compliance as a Service
MSPs who looked at Vanta say the same thing: it is built for an internal compliance team, not for managing 20 different small businesses. That is the split. Vanta helps one company pass its own audit. Nuronus helps an MSP productize that work and bill it monthly.
Vanta
Single-tenant internal compliance
Vanta automates evidence collection, control tests, and audit workflows for one organization — typically a startup or mid-market company getting SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA for itself. Strong integration library. Sold through a quote.
Nuronus
Multi-tenant MSP compliance
Nuronus is the other job: one MSP login, many clients, white-label reports, and a single control set mapped across 11 frameworks. Self-serve. Free to start. Priced so you can mark it up as a $350–$1,500/client/month service.

Why MSPs Pick Nuronus Over Vanta
Four Differences That Matter
Multi-tenant vs. one company per login
Vanta’s workflow assumes one security team, one audit, one org. An MSP with 12 healthcare clients would be running 12 Vanta-style programs. Nuronus is one login, every client, every framework — the workflow MSPs already described when they said Vanta is built for internal teams.
Flat $99 for 10 clients vs. a quote per company
Vanta’s starting price is reported in the low five figures per organization per year. That math does not survive resale to SMBs. Nuronus Starter is $99/mo for 10 clients and all 11 frameworks, so you can charge $500/client/mo and keep the margin.

Vanta is sold through a demo and a quote. Nuronus is self-serve: sign up, use the preloaded demo client, connect a live tenant, and send a white-label report the same day.
MSP frameworks Vanta is not aimed at
CJIS, CMMC POA&M/SSP drafts, FERPA, PIPEDA, and Loi 25 are in Nuronus because MSPs get asked for them. Vanta’s catalog is strong for a company’s own SOC 2/ISO path; it is not an MSP service desk.
An Honest Take
When Each One Wins
Choose Vanta if…
- •You are one company getting your own SOC 2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA

- •You want Vanta’s integration catalog and auditor ecosystem for that one org
- •A five-figure annual contract for a single company is the budget
Choose Nuronus if…
- ✓You are an MSP productizing compliance across many small-business clients

FAQ
Vanta vs Nuronus, Answered
Is Nuronus a Vanta alternative?
For an MSP, yes — that is the comparison buyers actually make. Vanta is the right tool when one company is automating its own audit. Nuronus is the right tool when an MSP is delivering that work to many clients from one dashboard.
Can an MSP just buy Vanta for each client?
You can, at roughly a five-figure annual license per client. Most MSPs cannot mark that up to a $500/month SMB retainer. Nuronus is $99/mo for 10 clients so the service line has margin.
Does Vanta have a free plan?
No public free tier. Nuronus is free for 2 clients, full platform, no credit card, no time limit.
When does Vanta make more sense than Nuronus?
If you are a single organization — not an MSP — getting your own SOC 2 or ISO 27001, Vanta is purpose-built for that internal program. Nuronus is not trying to be that product.
Is Vanta multi-tenant for MSPs?
Vanta is built around one company’s compliance program. Nuronus is multi-tenant: one MSP, many clients, row-level isolation, white-label reports.
What does Nuronus cost compared with Vanta at 10 clients?
Nuronus Starter is $99/month for 10 clients. Ten Vanta-style licenses, using publicly reported starting prices, is typically five figures per client per year. Verify a current Vanta quote; the order of magnitude is the point.
