New Delhi [India], April 15: In boardrooms and backend war rooms alike, compliance has long been the fire no one wants to fight--but everyone must. Each audit cycle brings the same chaos: scattered documentation, unclear responsibilities, sleepless nights, and that last-minute scramble to "look ready."
As regulatory frameworks evolve and cyber threats intensify, the stakes have never been higher. For modern businesses, especially in sectors like fintech, BFSI, and SaaS, managing compliance is no longer an annual event--it's a daily reality. Yet, most organizations are still trapped in outdated systems, juggling spreadsheets, emails, and siloed tools that can't keep pace.
The result? Teams feel overwhelmed, leaders lack visibility, and companies are constantly at risk of non-compliance. In an age where trust, transparency, and resilience are currency, the traditional compliance model is simply broken.
That's where Assist steps in--not just as a product, but as a mindset shift.
The Vision Behind Assist
The idea for Assist wasn't born in a boardroom--it came from the trenches.
For over a decade, the team at QRC Assurance worked alongside hundreds of organizations--helping them navigate compliance audits, manage security risks, and align with global standards like PCI DSS, ISO 27001, GDPR, and more. And every single time, they saw the same struggle: compliance was reactive, fragmented, and painfully manual.
"It was the same story across the board," recalls Vamsi Krishna, CEO of QRC Assurance. "Despite best intentions, companies were treating compliance like a one-time project, not a process. We knew something had to change."
That realization sparked a mission: to build a solution that doesn't just manage compliance--but transforms how it's experienced.
A solution that would be smart, scalable, always-on, and made for modern security teams.
And so, Assist was born.
What is Assist?
At its core, Assist is India's first homegrown Continuous Compliance Solution--a powerful, all-in-one platform that helps organizations manage compliance, audits, risks, and documentation with precision and simplicity.
But Assist is more than just a tool--it's a strategic shift in how companies approach Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). It transforms scattered, spreadsheet-driven processes into a centralized, real-time ecosystem where every control, every audit task, and every risk update are always visible and always actionable.
Whether you're a fast-growing fintech startup aiming for PCI DSS certification or a multi-country enterprise navigating complex data privacy mandates like the DPDP Act, Assist adapts to your scale and security maturity.
