Security without a security hire
You're not going to hire a security team this year — the budget is a product roadmap. But the questionnaires keep arriving and the launches keep shipping. Notra is a $149-per-audit option when a full consultancy engagement is not the right fit, with evidence attached to findings that pass verification.
The three pains, named
A big prospect sends a security form with rows like 'do you test for vulnerabilities?' and every honest answer is a promise. Now the answer is an attached report with proof — see the questionnaire playbook.
Days before launch and the security box is empty. Free scorecard on Monday, verified $149 audit on Tuesday, fixes by Friday — the pre-launch timeline, step by step.
Human engagements are quote-based and scope-dependent. Notra's Deep Audit is $149 flat, report in about an hour, and the honest comparison explains what each one buys.

$149, when it matters
If the scorecard flags something real, buy the Deep Audit: ~360 requests, ~60 minutes, up to 20 verified findings with the evidence for each.
$49/month, after launch
Monitor re-scans daily and emails you on every change — one more thing you don't need to hire for.
What it is not
Not a hire
Notra doesn't join your standup, triage your alerts, or design your architecture. It finds and proves the flaws on your live surface — the part that was unowned.
Not a letter
The report is evidence of testing, not a signed auditor document. If a deal requires that artifact, a manual engagement produces it.
Not magic
Known exploit classes, evaluated with supporting proofs where available — that's the range. Novel business-logic chains still need creative humans, and the report says when it found nothing.
What the deliverable actually looks like is in the sample verified report — read it before spending a dollar.
Questions founders ask us first
Do I need to understand security to use this?
No. You read a plain-English fix list, hand it to an engineer (or your own AI coding tool), and findings that pass verification can include the captured evidence needed to investigate.
Why not just hire a security consultancy?
Get the quote first. Human engagements vary by scope, depth, and deliverables and may take longer to schedule. Notra's Deep Audit is $149 and covers a different slice: it evaluates known exploit classes mechanically, while a consultancy can investigate creative chains and provide deliverables Notra does not.
What do I actually get for free?
The scorecard: about 16 passive checks on your live domain, roughly a minute, no card. It's enough to know whether the paid audit is worth it — and plenty of founders stop there and come back at their next launch.
