Autire vs CORAA

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.

CORAA is an audit engine for Indian CA firms that automates ledger scrutiny, vouching, reconciliation, working papers, and audit workflows. Its internal-audit system organizes client delivery across scopes of work, data requests, risk and control matrices, cycle programmes, evidence, observations, management responses, action tracking, and recurring monitoring. The engine tests the full ledger and suggests classifications and findings; auditors can accept or override those suggestions and retain professional judgement and sign-off. CORAA supports working papers and reports including Form 3CD, CARO 2020, Schedule III, and an Independent Auditor’s Report under SA 700. Connections include a desktop connector for Tally Prime, OAuth for Zoho Books, and Excel uploads for SAP S/4HANA, NetSuite, Busy, and Marg; MS Dynamics and QuickBooks are listed as coming. The cloud service works in a browser on desktop, laptop, tablet, or mobile, and Android and iOS are also listed. The 10-entity pack costs ₹30,000, with unlimited users and all features included. A free trial is available; there is no free plan.
