Use Case · Customer Questionnaire Automation

Answer The 200-Question Security Survey From Live Evidence.

The platform turns the recurring customer-questionnaire grind into a live evidence query. Controls map to your real tenant data — SBOMs, scan results, policy decisions — not to a spreadsheet that goes stale the moment it's saved.

The Questionnaire Tax Is Not A Document Problem.

Every enterprise deal asks the same 200 questions in slightly different layouts. Most security teams maintain a master spreadsheet, copy answers across, then sweat the questions where the answer has changed since last quarter.

The real cost is not the typing — it's the staleness risk. An answer that was true at signing becomes a misrepresentation at renewal if the underlying control changed and nobody updated the canned text.

The platform inverts the workflow. Controls are derived from live tenant data. The LLM drafts the answer, grounded in that data, with the supporting evidence attached inline. The reviewer ratifies; nothing gets sent without a human signature, but the human is reviewing — not typing.

01

Spreadsheets Decay

The master answer doc was current six months ago. Today, half the answers reference deprecated tooling and the other half are subtly wrong. Nobody knows which half is which.

02

Framework Cross-Walks Get Hand-Coded Each Time

SOC 2 CC6.1 maps to ISO A.12.4 maps to DPDP Sec. 8 — every team rebuilds the cross-walk per questionnaire because no live map exists.

03

Evidence Lives In Three Tools

The control text says &quot;continuous vulnerability scanning&quot;. The evidence sits in three dashboards. Pulling proof for a single answer is its own afternoon project.

04

Long-Tail Questions Eat Senior Time

The 10 unusual questions per questionnaire — encryption-key rotation cadence, regional data residency, model-training data sources — pull engineers into review threads daily.

What It Does

Live Evidence, Mapped And Drafted.

Tenant-Grounded Evidence Store

Every artefact — SBOMs, scan results, policy decisions, audit logs, control narratives — lives in a queryable per-tenant store with cryptographic timestamps.

Framework Cross-Walks As Code

SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, PCI-DSS, DPDP, GDPR maintained as versioned mapping files; updates propagate to every in-flight questionnaire automatically.

Grounded LLM Auto-Draft

Each question routes to the Griffin family which retrieves matching evidence and drafts the response with the source artefacts cited inline. No hallucinated controls.

Regulator-Grade Export

Completed questionnaires export as PDF + signed JSON evidence bundle; revision history is preserved per question for audit and renewal cycles.

The Pipeline

From Inbound Survey To Signed Submission.

01
Ingest + parse

Upload the questionnaire (xlsx / csv / web-form export); the platform extracts every question and clusters by framework family.

02
Map to controls

Each question matched to internal controls via the versioned cross-walk; ambiguous matches surfaced for human disambiguation.

03
Evidence retrieval

For each control, the tenant evidence store returns the most recent supporting artefacts with timestamps and provenance.

04
Griffin draft

Griffin composes the answer grounded strictly in retrieved evidence; citations appear inline. Unsupported answers return as &quot;needs human input&quot;.

05
Reviewer ratification

Security reviewer ratifies, edits, or flags; edits feed back into the canonical control narrative for future re-use.

06
Signed export

Completed questionnaire exports as the customer-requested format plus a signed JSON evidence bundle and a per-question audit log.

Outcomes After Rollout.

Answers Stay True

Grounded in current evidence per draft
Edits feed canonical narrative
Stale-answer risk drops to zero

Cycle Time Collapses

Multi-day surveys close in hours
Reviewer effort shifts from typing to checking
Renewals don&apos;t restart from scratch

Audit Trail Is Free

Per-question evidence + signature log
Signed export per submission
Regulator-grade record retained per tenant

Sources include SBOM Studio for artefacts, scanner-suite for scan results, and comply-with-global-regulations for framework cross-walks.
