Australian-built. Data hosted in Sydney.
See your NDIS audit-readiness gaps before an auditor does.
GuardRail scans your own policies against every Practice Standards indicator, cites the exact evidence it found, and surfaces what's missing — so the first time someone audits your readiness, it's you. Not the auditor.
Free tier · 3 scans / 12 months · no credit card · ~10 min from signup to first finding.

How GuardRail works
From policy pile to auditor-ready pack in three steps.
No live-call onboarding. No 30-day implementation. Free tier starts in your browser, no card.
STEP 01
Tell us your provider profile
~10 seconds
Pick your support categories, registration class, AI use, and audit cycle. We map the Practice Standards modules + indicators that actually apply to your org.
STEP 02
Upload your policies. Run a scan.
~5 minutes
Drop in your policy library — PDFs, DOCX, scanned docs. GuardRail's scanner reads each policy against every indicator and cites the exact paragraph it found the evidence in.
STEP 03
Hand the auditor a pack they can work from
Instant
Get a per-indicator readiness PDF with status, citations, gaps, and a 90-day remediation plan. Share via the Trust Hub for external reviewers without giving them workspace access.
Why pay for compliance software
You could DIY this. Here's what it actually takes.
An honest breakdown. NDIS audit-prep consultants charge A$5–15K per cycle. The spreadsheet route is free but eats 15–25 hours of office-manager time. GuardRail Professional is A$149/mo (or A$1,490/yr — save ~17%). Free tier covers the first scan.
| Audit-prep step | DIY in spreadsheets | Hours | With GuardRail | Time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Map your audit pathway | Read 200+ pages of Practice Standards | 1–3 hr | Auto-routed from your profile | 10 sec |
| Find every indicator that applies | Cross-reference modules manually | 2–4 hr | Auto, every scan | Instant |
| Match policies to indicators | Spreadsheet, paragraph-by-paragraph | 6–10 hr | AI scan with citations | ~5 min |
| Build evidence index | Word doc, manual | 3–5 hr | Auto from scan output | Instant |
| Write 90-day remediation plan | Drafted from scratch | 3–5 hr | Auto-generated, gap-ranked | Instant |
| Total per audit cycle | Spreadsheets + Word | 15–27 hr | A$149/mo or A$1,490/yr | ~10 min |

Why GuardRail
Built specifically for the work Australian regulated-care teams already do.
Built for Australian regulated care
Not a US compliance tool with NDIS skin. The Practice Standards modules, APP 1.7–1.9 transparency, AI Safety Standard guardrails, and Quality and Safeguards Commission registration paths are all first-class.
