Optro Platform

What it does

Optro is a governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platform that unifies internal audit, risk management, compliance, IT and cyber risk, and third-party risk on a single connected data model. Formerly AuditBoard, the company rebranded as Optro in March 2026. Rather than running a separate tool for each discipline, it links risks, controls, policies, and evidence in one repository, so a control tested once can satisfy requirements across multiple frameworks.

How it works

The platform centers on Optro AI, models trained on governance, risk, and compliance data that draft narratives, map controls to frameworks, and complete questionnaires under configurable practitioner review with a logged audit trail. Autonomous Testing, built on Midship technology acquired in May 2026, ingests unstructured evidence such as bank statements and access logs, runs attribute tests like access reviews and reconciliations, and returns Excel workpapers for reviewer sign-off. Optro Analytics tests full data populations, more than 30 frameworks map one control set across regulations, and connectors to more than 150 systems pull evidence from HRIS, ERP, cloud, and ticketing tools.
