Workstreet is the clearest SecurityPal alternative in this corpus: a done-for-you process rather than software you drive. Its distinctive angle is completing the whole questionnaire — the pitch explicitly targets the "AI does 80%, you finish the painful 20%" gap — and bundling questionnaires with vCISO, compliance implementation, and pen testing under one services relationship. The diligence items mirror any managed model: final-answer accountability, reviewer access to sensitive material, SLA conditions, and what happens to your knowledge base if you leave.

What Workstreet does
Workstreet describes itself as "the modern cybersecurity team to accelerate your growth" — a services firm augmented by AI rather than a software product. For security questionnaires, YAQ runs a four-stage workflow: build a knowledge base from your security documentation, generate AI responses against your security posture, review and validate with security professionals, and deliver completed responses to your team via Slack.
Public materials claim processing begins within 24 hours with completion in 24-72 hours depending on tier, coverage of every questionnaire format and delivery method (customer portals, Word, Excel, PDF attachments, web forms), and over 500,000 unique security questions answered. The broader firm covers SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, CMMC, HIPAA, HITRUST, PCI, CCPA, GDPR, and AIUC-1 programs, with customers including Clay, Cursor, and Granola.

Questions to ask Workstreet
Ask these questions in the Workstreet demo, then test the answers with your own content and approval process.
- Does the product answer customer requests, send vendor assessments, or both?
Workstreet mainly helps your team answer customer questionnaires and share security material. It is not a full third-party risk management system for assessing suppliers.
- Can every AI-drafted answer be traced to its source?
Workstreet says drafted answers use source material. In the demo, open several citations and test what happens when sources conflict or go out of date.
- Which questionnaire files and customer portals can it handle?
Workstreet documents file and customer portal support. Test a real spreadsheet, PDF, and difficult portal before buying.
- Which standard and custom questionnaires does it support?
Workstreet documents CAIQ and SIG support. Confirm the versions and import one of your custom forms during the demo.
- Does it include buyer-side vendor risk assessment?
Workstreet is not primarily a buyer-side vendor risk product. If you need to score suppliers before sending assessments, evaluate that separately.
- Can its trust center prevent repeat questionnaires?
Workstreet does not list a trust center as a core feature. If customer self-service matters, compare it with products that include one.
- How does review, approval, answer ownership, and audit history work?
Workstreet documents review and approval controls. In the demo, test a low-confidence answer, expert assignment, final approval, and the audit record.
- Does it connect to the systems your team already uses?
Workstreet lists 3 integrations across collaboration, other systems, and customer portals. Examples include Slack, Vanta, and Customer portals. Confirm what each connection can do, whether API work is required, and which plans include it.
- How are reused answers updated when policies, reports, or products change?
Workstreet does not explain how it handles content changes. Ask how outdated answers are flagged, who approves corrections, and whether updates reach every reused answer.
FAQ
Is Workstreet software or a service?
A managed service: AI drafts questionnaire answers from your documented posture and security professionals validate them, with delivery via Slack in 24-72 hours.
How is Workstreet different from questionnaire software?
It completes the entire questionnaire rather than automating a percentage and leaving the rest — the tradeoff is external reviewer involvement instead of in-house software control.
