Openlane vs Vanta

Your program lives on one record instead of a stack of modules, so when you change a control, everything connected to it stays in step — no reconciling the same fact across tools. Vanta sells that coverage as products bundled and gated across its tiers.

• No separate risk or access product to buy alongside compliance.
• Your asset and personnel registry is a named product area with its own record.

Author your own controls, then automate against the exact objects you see in the product through the same GraphQL API the console runs on. Vanta documents three separate APIs, and a token issued for one can't call the others.

• Map one control across every framework that shares the requirement.
• GraphQL API, webhooks, and a CLI — one surface, not several.
• Tokens scoped by object and action.

Access follows the work as it changes, layered from the whole organization down to a single object, so permissions reflect what people do rather than what a certification cycle last signed off. Vanta gates Access Management to its Plus tier and above.

• Included on every plan, with unlimited users and no per-seat fee.
• Exempt a member or domain from SSO while MFA stays enforced.
