Ownership & transparency

GRC Platforms is operated by Better ISMS, the same company that builds ISMS Copilot, heyGRC, ISMS Directory, and GRC Agents Directory.

Two of those, heyGRC and ISMS Copilot, are GRC software. To keep the catalog neutral:

• They are not catalog entries and are never ranked here.
• They appear only as clearly labeled house products in the footer, so you always know which links are ours.

We prefer a catalog with no house entries over one where you have to wonder whether a listing is promoting the owner.

Data sourcing

The catalog is curated by us from public sources: product documentation, company sites, and public filings. Category assignments reflect each platform's main product focus. Descriptions are written by us, except a paid listing, whose text is supplied by the company, reviewed against our rules, and marked on its page.

Ranking

Listings are alphabetical within every view. Nothing on this site is ranked by payment, and no platform can buy a better category, a badge, or placement.

Paid listings

Listing on request is paid from 9 November 2026; submissions received before then are still reviewed as before. The fee buys a review against our rules and publication within 48 hours of payment, or a full refund, never rank. Most of the catalog was added by us from public sources, without payment. We mark every link to a vendor's site from a listing rel="sponsored", paid or not.
