Frameworks sold one at a time
Sprinto lists additional frameworks as an add-on. Teams carrying several standards compare that with licensing by scope.
Comparison
An alternative to Sprinto
Sprinto and Noru both put AI at the centre of compliance and both can host in the EU. They differ on how privacy is run, how frameworks are licensed and how far AI acts on its own — set out from Sprinto's own pages.
Why alternatives
What teams tell us they are re-evaluating
Common reasons teams evaluate other options.
Privacy as a separate module
Sprinto sells Privacy Management as a module for mature GRC teams. Privacy functions that want records kept current from the systems themselves look for a different shape.
Autonomy needs an approval trail
Agents that act on their own still need a record an auditor will accept of who decided what. Teams weigh how much the AI does unreviewed.
EU regulation in depth
NIS2, DORA and the EU AI Act land on teams that scoped their programme around SOC 2 alone.
Noru vs Sprinto: Key Differences
| Feature | Noru | Sprinto |
|---|---|---|
| Published framework catalogue | 30+ frameworks, mapped once and reused | 25+ automated out of the box; 200+ digitised |
| NIS2 and DORA | Supported | DORA framework page; NIS 2 offering |
| AI approach | Cortex drafts from your evidence; humans review and decide | Autonomous AI agents for evidence, fixes, vendors and trust |
| Pricing model | Platform plus capability packages, scoped per deployment | Not published; two tiers, extra frameworks as add-ons |
| Data residency | EU data residency by default | AWS; EU primary region in Frankfurt among others |
| Privacy records from source code | Article 30 records derived from code and CI, using an open privacy taxonomy | Privacy Management module; code-derived records not stated |
Privacy records from your code
Article 30 records and a data map derived from source code and CI, run on the same control library as your security frameworks.
AI that drafts, people decide
Cortex drafts policies, mappings and legal-basis reasoning from your evidence; nothing enters your programme until a person accepts it.
Licensed by scope
You license the capability packages your obligations require, priced by the scope each one governs, rather than unlocking frameworks one by one.
EU residency by default
Every customer's evidence, policies and personal data are stored and processed in the EU. AI inference is the one activity that may leave the EEA, under EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
Why Noru
Where Noru is different
What sets Noru apart for faster, smarter compliance.
Moving from Sprinto
Evidence that comes from your own systems is collected again by Noru once the integrations are connected; policies, risks and vendor records come across, and controls are re-mapped once. We scope the move during the demo.

What is the best Sprinto alternative?
Noru is a Sprinto alternative for teams whose privacy and EU regulatory obligations sit alongside SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Records of processing are derived from your code, GDPR, NIS2 and DORA run on one control library, and AI drafts while people decide.
How is Noru different from Sprinto?
Sprinto describes autonomous AI agents and states 25+ frameworks automated out of the box. Noru covers 30+ frameworks from one control library, derives Article 30 records from source code, and keeps every AI output a draft until a person accepts it.
How much does Noru cost compared with Sprinto?
Neither publishes prices. Sprinto quotes two tiers and lists additional frameworks as an add-on. Noru licenses the platform plus the capability packages your obligations require, priced per deployment. Book a demo for a written quote against your scope.
Does Noru train AI on our compliance data?
No. Customer data is never used to train, fine-tune or evaluate any model — Noru's or a provider's — and every AI feature runs under zero data retention terms, so the model provider returns the output and keeps no copy of the prompt or response. Both commitments are contractual, in Section 4.6 of our Terms and Sections 3.5–3.6 of our DPA. Ask every vendor you shortlist for the same in writing.
