Coverage
Standards & questionnaire types
We draft against the files your buyers send. Answlane is an independent concierge service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or a representative of Shared Assessments, the Cloud Security Alliance, or other framework owners.
Common formats
What we typically draft
| Type | What it is | How we help |
|---|---|---|
| SIG | Standardized Information Gathering questionnaires and related enterprise vendor security spreadsheets. | Map questions to your answer library; draft cells citing your policies and prior responses; export XLSX. |
| CAIQ | Consensus Assessment Initiative Questionnaire formats used in cloud/SaaS security reviews. | Produce first-pass answers grounded in your control narrative and SOC 2 materials; flag gaps for your owner. |
| Custom packs | Buyer-specific Excel or Word security questionnaires outside standard templates. | Normalize questions to library themes; draft in the buyer’s format; return XLSX or DOCX. |
Approach
Your materials, not invented controls
Evidence-first
Drafts cite policies, SOC 2 reports, and past answers you supply. Missing evidence is called out—not fabricated.
Library reuse
Approved wording is retained so subsequent SIG, CAIQ, or custom packs start closer to consistent.
Your sign-off
Framework names appear because buyers use them. Your team remains responsible for accuracy and submission.
