Open Signup, PCI DSS, and Agent-Run Vendor Reviews
The waitlist is gone. Anyone can sign up and start a workspace — no invite, no waiting.
This release also puts the agent runtime from June to work on the most tedious loop in GRC: vendor reviews. Every workspace gets its own agent email address. Send a questionnaire or evidence request from a vendor's Communications tab, and when the vendor replies, the agent triages the attachment, links it to the vendor with recorded provenance, and threads a conversational response. Accept the evidence and the review cadence advances on its own. CAIQ v4.1 and CCM Lite questionnaires join the catalog, alongside ISO 27001 and pen-test evidence playbooks.
PCI DSS lands as a first-class framework: full-fidelity ROC and SAQ assessments with an in-app report, a summary matrix, and export. And the dashboard now shows evidence-backed assurance — scores derived from the actual evidence behind each control, with drill-downs and an attention card for what needs action.
- Trust centers serve at your own domain root — trust.acme.com, clean URLs, no redirect — with versioned resources and expiry reminders
- Integrations map evidence to control coverage, with scoping, one-click AWS connect, and per-assertion sync outcomes
- Crosswalk any two frameworks through the SCF hub, with a controlled mapping vocabulary and provenance
- Global command palette, unified activity-and-comments feed, rich-text descriptions, and tabbed list views
- Workspace scoping enforced at the database layer, plus a security and reliability hardening pass from a full codebase review
episki, rebuilt around agents
The biggest release in episki's history — a ground-up, agent-first rewrite. Agents plan, execute, and surface work for approval across a unified compliance platform, with new Risk, TPRM, Trust, and AI Governance modules.
Agent-first GRC: what changes when AI runs the program
Most GRC tools added AI as a feature. Agent-first GRC treats agents as the operator — drafting policies, answering questionnaires, and running the program with humans approving the work that matters.
