What a SOC 2 audit costs, and what drives the number
Sage Audits SOC 2 engagements start at $12,000. That is one fixed package fee covering the readiness assessment, the Type 1, and the Type 2 at Security scope, and it does not change whether you run a six or twelve month observation period.
Above that floor the fee moves with how much has to be tested: the complexity of the system in scope, how many controls are in scope, how many Trust Services Categories you add beyond Security, and how much of your evidence already exists in a usable form. The calculator below turns your answers into a real range, and we quote a fixed fee before work begins.

Common Questions
SOC 2 pricing questions
How much does a SOC 2 audit cost?
Sage Audits SOC 2 engagements start at $12,000. That is one fixed package fee covering the readiness assessment, the Type 1, and the Type 2 at Security scope. The final figure depends on the complexity of the system in scope, the number of controls, and how many Trust Services Categories you add beyond Security.
What determines the cost of a SOC 2 audit?
Four things: the complexity of the system in scope, how many controls are in scope, how many Trust Services Categories you include beyond Security, and how much of your evidence already exists in a usable form. A Type II costs more than a Type I because every control is tested across the full observation period.
How much does a SOC 2 Type 2 audit cost?
At Sage Audits the Type 2 is part of a package starting at $12,000 that also covers readiness and the Type 1, rather than being quoted on its own. A Type 2 costs more than a Type 1 because every control is tested with samples drawn from the whole observation period rather than at a single date.
Is SOC 2 a certification?
No. SOC 2 is an attestation framework, not a certification. A licensed CPA firm examines your controls against the Trust Services Criteria and issues an opinion, so what you receive is a report rather than a certificate. People search for SOC 2 certification cost, but what they are buying is a SOC 2 examination.
