Question 1

What is CompliSun Guardian?

Accepted Answer

CompliSun Guardian is a compliance platform for fintechs and community banks. It uses AI and automation where appropriate to save time, drafts and recommends so the repeatable work is handled, and engages credentialed compliance professionals and licensed counsel when judgment is required, so a person owns every output.

Question 2

What is a fractional compliance officer?

Accepted Answer

A fractional compliance officer is a credentialed CCO or BSA officer who runs your compliance program part-time, on a monthly retainer, instead of as a full-time hire. At CompliSun the officer works inside Guardian, so your policies, risk assessments, and evidence stay in one place if the person changes.

Question 3

How much does a compliance platform for a fintech cost?

Accepted Answer

CompliSun Guardian starts free. Paid plans are Essentials at $39.99/month, Pro at $350/month, Scale at $750/month, and Enterprise at $5,280 to $22,000/month depending on modules and team, with additional usage available as an in-app purchase. Fractional compliance officer services and CompliSun Legal (hourly counsel, a flat monthly legal hotline, or a fractional legal team from $1,250/month) are priced separately.

Question 4

What is the difference between CompliSun and Vanta?

Accepted Answer

Vanta automates security and privacy frameworks such as SOC 2 and ISO 27001. CompliSun Guardian covers financial-services regulatory compliance, including AML/BSA, UDAAP, fair lending, marketing review, and state licensing, and pairs the software with compliance professionals and licensed counsel who own the results.

Question 5

Do I need a BSA officer for a bank partnership?

Accepted Answer

In practice, yes. Sponsor banks and their regulators expect fintech partners to designate a qualified BSA/AML officer, maintain a written program, and complete an annual independent review. CompliSun can supply a fractional BSA officer and run the program in Guardian.

Question 6

What happens if my compliance officer leaves?

Accepted Answer

CompliSun fills the seat with a credentialed compliance professional, with no gap, because your entire program already lives in Guardian. Bank partners and examiners see continuity rather than a restart.

Question 7

Is CompliSun Guardian SOC 2 compliant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CompliSun Guardian maintains a SOC 2 Type 2 report covering its security, availability, and confidentiality controls. Reports are available to customers under NDA.

Question 8
