ComplianceAide Platform Overview
A clear walkthrough of ComplianceAide from public trial to workspace, evidence capture, assessment, dashboards, reports, policies, and MSP workshop follow-up.
ComplianceAide turns evidence into assessments, dashboards, and action plans.
Start from the public trial page, open a guided workspace, upload or capture evidence, run a framework assessment, and generate the outputs an MSP or security team needs to move work forward.
1. Start from the public trial page
The fastest entry point is ai.complianceaideai.com/trial. A new user chooses the setup, enters a company name and work email, and receives a secure sign-in link.
- No implementation project is required to start.
- MSPs can begin with their own internal workspace or a customer workspace.
- The first useful outcome is evidence organization, not a perfect compliance score.
2. Create a workspace with real scope
Each workspace should map to a client, business unit, assessment project, or focused initiative. The scope note is the first place to say what the team is trying to assess.
3. Let the Guide keep the user moving
The Guide keeps the workflow readable. It surfaces status, next actions, and useful shortcuts while evidence is being reviewed or an assessment is running.
- Ask the assistant what to do next.
- Use Guide actions for status, policy generation, summaries, and follow-up.
- Keep the workspace open while long-running work completes.
4. Upload evidence before running the assessment
ComplianceAide works best when the user gives it evidence first: policies, spreadsheets, exports, screenshots, diagrams, backup status, tickets, and identity or endpoint data.
- Upload individual files rather than expecting compressed archives to be parsed automatically.
- Read unsupported-file warnings before running the assessment.
- Ask the assistant to summarize what the evidence proves and what is still missing.
5. Use Eyes when evidence is visual
Some evidence lives in a dashboard, remote tool, CSV viewer, VDI session, or screenshot. Eyes lets the user capture what is visible and turn it into workspace context.
- Open the evidence on screen.
- Click Eyes, Start, choose the screen or window, then stop after capture.
- Ask the assistant to summarize what Eyes saw before relying on it in the assessment.
6. Run the framework assessment
Pick the framework that matches the customer conversation. For many MSP readiness sessions, NIST CSF 2.0 is a good first pass because it produces broad security-program coverage without over-specializing too early.
- Large assessments can take 15-40 minutes depending on evidence and framework size.
- Use partial previews carefully while the full result finishes.
- Turn top gaps into owners, dates, and evidence requests.
7. Generate visual outputs and customer-ready follow-up
After evidence is in the workspace, ComplianceAide can create dashboards, summaries, reports, policies, and remediation plans that make the findings easier to discuss.
Need a hands-on version?
The evidence-to-assessment workshop is the companion exercise: it gives MSPs a fictional evidence pack and a 60-minute runbook for practicing this flow.
