## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-25 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> "Audit management software" splits two ways for a freelancer, so here's both - the first list is much more likely what you want.
> 
> ## If you're a solo auditor/consultant running audits for clients
> 
> **1. AuditFile** - my default recommendation. It's explicitly built for small firms and sole practitioners: cloud workpapers with procedures, evidence, sign-offs, trial balance and reporting in one engagement file. $149/mo for the first user ($249 for Pro Plus), no contract, 14-day trial. Nothing else at that price gives you a real engagement file structure without enterprise onboarding.
> 
> **2. Suralink** - not a full audit platform, but the cheapest high-leverage add-on: it replaces the PBC/request-list email chase with a client portal. If you only buy one thing and already have workpapers sorted, buy this. Solo practitioners tend to see the ROI immediately in fewer chaser emails.
> 
> **3. CaseWare Cloud** - pick this if you want methodology enforced by templates and expect to hand work to a reviewer or a subcontractor later. It's the browser version of the desktop workpaper standard most reviewers already know, and you can adopt it one engagement at a time.
> 
> **4. Audora** - worth a look spe

Each page names the engine and the model, carries the date the question was asked, and lists the brands that appeared in the answer in the order the engine gave them, with the sources it cited. It is a measurement, not a ranking, not a recommendation and not a claim about the world. Brands that did not appear in an answer are not named on any public page.
