Collect Evidence. Map Controls. Generate Workpapers.
Petual handles the request chase, control mapping, and workpaper drafting so your audit team reviews instead of transcribes.
In a typical SOX cycle, most of the team's hours go to mechanical coordination
Chasing evidence requests, reformatting documents, and drafting workpapers consumes the time your team should spend evaluating controls and documenting findings.
- Evidence requests go unanswered for days, stalling the entire engagement
- Control mapping from evidence to criteria done manually, line by line
- Workpaper drafts start from blank templates, rebuilt engagement after engagement
- Senior reviewers spend hours reformatting instead of reviewing substance
From evidence request to finished workpaper
Petual connects to your audit environment and handles the mechanical layers so your team focuses on findings.
Connect and Configure
Link your audit management system and evidence repository. Petual maps your control framework once and learns your workpaper templates.
Automate Evidence Collection
Petual sends evidence requests, tracks responses, sends reminders, and routes received files to the right control bucket automatically.
Review, Not Transcribe
Petual drafts the workpaper, maps the evidence to criteria, and flags exceptions. Your team opens a near-complete file, not a blank page.
Everything the request-to-workpaper cycle requires
Purpose-built for audit and assurance workflows, not repurposed from a generic AI tool.
Evidence Request Automation
Draft and send evidence requests directly from your control matrix. Track responses, send reminders, and close the loop without spreadsheet chasing.
Control Mapping Engine
Petual reads received evidence and maps it to your control criteria. SOC 2, ISO 27001, and custom frameworks supported out of the box.
Workpaper Generation
AI drafts workpapers in your firm's format, pre-populated with evidence citations, control language, and exception narratives for manager review.
Exception Detection
Petual surfaces control gaps and inconsistencies automatically, flagging items for senior review before they reach the manager's desk.
Audit Trail and Sign-Off
Every AI action is logged with timestamps, user confirmations, and evidence references. Full chain-of-custody from request to signed workpaper.
Integrations
Connects with AuditBoard, Workiva, SharePoint, and your firm's document management system. Evidence flows in, workpapers flow out.
Built for assurance engagements, not generic document processing
