Autire vs CAGos

Autire is a browser-based platform for employee benefit plan audits, linking planning, testing, and financial statement delivery. Firms can set materiality thresholds, risk logic, and templates for reuse across engagements. Its client portal handles plan-specific document requests and follow-ups based on AICPA and DOL requirements. Auditors can upload a trust report PDF to extract plan activity and build a trial balance. Testing rules apply to all available participant records, including contributions and distributions. The platform groups audit exceptions by root cause for review and generates financial statement packages from tested and verified data using firm-approved templates. Autire says it maintains SOC 2 Type 2 controls, encrypts stored data with AES-256 and data in transit with TLS 1.2+, and hosts data in US AWS regions. Audit data is retained for seven years, and Social Security numbers are not required to complete an audit. The company says all support staff are former EBP auditors and that direct DOL inspection and peer review support is included in the per-audit fee. Pricing is on request, and the service is intended for business users.

CAGos is a cloud-native, multi-tenant practice-management platform for Indian Chartered Accountant firms. Its modules bring client CRM, HRMS, GST-compliant billing, an encrypted document vault, workflow and task management, compliance deadlines, and payments into one service. Firms can import more than 1,000 clients from CSV or Excel and reuse GST and PAN details across workflows. Users can configure client workflows, reminders, staff roles, and access controls without code. The platform tracks GST, TDS, ITR, and ROC deadlines, generates GST-compliant invoices, and exports client lists, invoice ledgers, and compliance summaries. Razorpay integration supports UPI, cards, net banking, recurring NACH mandates, and hosted payment links. CAGos says data is held in Indian data-center regions and user actions are captured in immutable audit logs. The 14-day trial includes all features and modules without a credit card.
