Framework tracking, audit evidence, and control status.
Compare / GRC automation
GRC tracks compliance. Valty translates it into financial proof.
GRC platforms manage frameworks, track control status, and produce audit evidence. Valty sits above GRC to translate that evidence into financial exposure, board-ready proof artifacts, and remediation ranked by business impact.
Connect your GRC evidence to ValtyGRC evidence → EBITDA exposure → board-ready proof.
Valty reads GRC evidence; it does not replace framework management or audit workflows.

The GRC automation workflow produces output without a proof chain.
A compliance framework manager that tracks control implementation status, collects evidence artifacts, and produces audit-ready reports. The platform answers "are we compliant?" but typically does not translate the gap into financial materiality or produce a proof artifact designed for a board or IC audience.
Valty reads the output and connects it to internal evidence.
GRC automation evidence enters Valty as a source signal. It is normalized into an evidence object with owner, freshness, and confidence — the same structure as internal controls and findings.
Evidence becomes a financial estimate with visible assumptions.
The FAIR-style exposure model consumes the connected evidence. Every estimate shows method, confidence band, and source coverage — not just a number.
The claim leaves as a proof artifact, not a dashboard screenshot.
Board packs, proof cards, and IC briefs export with source, confidence, freshness, and blocked-claim state. Claims that are stale or unsupported are labeled before they leave the platform.

DimensionGRC automation workflowValtyClaim note
EBITDA / dollar translationControl gaps surface as compliance findings. Financial impact is not calculated — the business meaning of a gap is left to the reader or an external consultant.Control state from GRC becomes an input to the FAIR-style exposure model. The financial estimate stays tied to the source evidence with method and confidence visible.Design-partner stage — GRC source connector coverage varies by platform and tenant configuration.
Board-ready proof artifactAudit reports and compliance scorecards. Useful for auditors; not designed for CFO or board consumption. Financial context is absent.A proof pack translates the compliance evidence into a board brief with exposure, owner action, and blocked-claim ledger. Claims that are stale or inferred are labeled before export.Artifact scope depends on which GRC source systems are connected and how fresh the underlying evidence is.
PE hold-period workflowCompliance dashboards show aggregate control health. Remediation priority is typically set by framework severity, not business impact or hold-period economics.Portfolio operating cadence ranks remediation across portfolio companies by financial delta per dollar spent. Hold-period context is explicit.Design-partner stage — portfolio rollup requires access to source systems across portfolio companies.
Method transparencyCompliance scoring uses framework-defined criticality. The link between a control gap and a business consequence is not shown.The FAIR-style model exposes assumptions, frequency distributions, and magnitude drivers next to the estimate. The buyer can challenge the number before it becomes a board claim.Valty does not replace GRC-managed compliance state; it adds a financial and proof layer on top.
Claim disciplineCompliance status is often binary (pass/fail). Evidence freshness, collection method, and owner are tracked within the platform but not surfaced in the export artifact.Every claim leaving Valty carries source, confidence, freshness, and publication state. Claims blocked by stale or missing evidence are labeled in the proof pack.GRC evidence must meet Valty freshness thresholds to publish as a board claim.
