A procurement-stage decision guide. Every cell below cites the Secureframe page it came from, and carries the date we last verified it. If a row looks out of date, email us at hello@raizehq.dev and we'll re-check.
When Raize Orion is the better fit
You need IASME Cyber Assurance or ISO 22301 (neither is on Secureframe's public frameworks list).
You need EU data residency by contract (data hosted in eu-west-2, sub-processors in the EU).
You want a single all-in price per tier that does not climb with team size or framework count.
You want a UK-based team and direct founder access during the trial / first quarter.
You need NIS2 Art. 23 reporting-clock infrastructure documented end-to-end.
When Secureframe may be the better fit
You need US-government frameworks (FedRAMP, CMMC 2.0) or AI-governance frameworks (ISO 42001, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF) — Secureframe ships these and Raize does not today.
You want Secureframe's ML-powered security-questionnaire automation at the depth they have invested.
Your buyer base is US-only and EU data residency is not a procurement gate.
You want their established auditor-partner network with in-platform auditor provisioning.
Including this block is intentional — buyers spot one-sided comparisons instantly, and that costs more trust than it earns.

Framework catalogue
Raize Orion
10 frameworks, all bundled at Enterprise; 3 / 6 / 10 at Starter / Growth / Enterprise
Secureframe
Large public catalogue (30+) incl. SOC 2, ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS, NIS2, CMMC 2.0, FedRAMP, plus an AI line (ISO 42001, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF)
Note: Secureframe lists a broader catalogue than Raize, including US-government and AI-governance frameworks Raize does not ship today. If you need those, that breadth is a real advantage — see "when Secureframe may be the better fit".
Bundled, with a built-in 24h / 72h / 1-month reporting clock (per-source SLAs, anchored on upstream signal time)
Secureframe
NIS2 listed as a supported framework; reporting-clock anchoring + per-source SLAs not documented on the public page
Note: Both support NIS2. The contrast is the documented in-app Art. 23 reporting-clock tracker — verify Secureframe directly for your NIS2 obligations.
Sales-led, GBP-default. Three tiers, no per-employee scaling.
Secureframe
Not published — quote-based, three tiers (Fundamentals / Complete / Defense). No public figures, per-employee, or per-framework rates on the pricing page.
Note: Neither vendor publishes full pricing. Third-party estimates circulate for Secureframe but are not stated on their own site, so we do not assert them here.
Native (eu-west-2, London) — data does not leave the EU
Secureframe
US-headquartered, AWS-hosted, GDPR-compliant; no specific EU/UK data-residency region stated on the public security page
Note: Both honour GDPR. We could not verify an EU-residency commitment on Secureframe public pages — confirm directly if residency is a contractual gate.
Your evidence base + control catalogue migrates with you — we import existing evidence + policy adoption history under a structured engagement.
Auditor portal tokens get re-issued under Raize's scope-bounded model. Your existing auditor sees the same data with a new login URL.
Sub-processor list updates from Secureframe's to ours (Supabase, Vercel, Stripe, Resend, Anthropic, Voyage, Sentry, Cloudflare, GitHub). Customers must be informed under your DPA terms.
Billing moves to GBP-default, sales-led contract. MSA + DPA on request.
30-day overlap window standard for migration of compliance-in-flight programmes.
