What Onspring Technologies does

Onspring Technologies LLC is a privately held, cloud-based GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) software provider founded in 2010 and headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas. The platform is built on a no-code/low-code SaaS architecture with a modular product surface — a unified GRC Suite plus more than a dozen specialized modules spanning risk management, compliance management, internal audit, third-party risk, policy management, business resiliency, incident management, CMMC 2.0, data privacy, regulatory change, OMB A-123, POA&M, and a FedRAMP Class C-certified GovCloud offering for federal agencies. Technology differentiators include pre-built regulatory content libraries (ISO, NIST, CMMC, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI DSS), real-time dynamic workflows, role-based dashboards, native surveys/attestations, and an AI layer — branded Onspring AI and launched in October 2025 — that is powered by Anthropic's Claude models and integrates with partners Black Kite (cyber-aware document mapping) and Ascent (regulatory change intelligence). Pre-built connectors cover DocuSign, Microsoft 365, Google Drive, and Slack, with API access for additional custom integrations.

Revenue is generated primarily through annual SaaS subscriptions structured around four platform tiers (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) and three licensing models (By Users, By Products, Hybrid) priced via quote, with implementation services bundled into certain license types and billed separately as professional services when required. GTM motion is sales-led: direct enterprise field sales supported by inside sales for mid-market, a dedicated government sales motion for FedRAMP-bound accounts, and an annual Connect User Conference included with licensing. Customer base is dominated by mid-market and enterprise organizations across healthcare (Humana, University of Kansas Health System), insurance (American Family Insurance), media and entertainment (Warner Bros. Discovery, jetBlue), retail (Costco), technology distribution (Avnet), telecommunications (TDS), hospitality (Northgate Resorts), travel (Amex GBT), and federal agencies via the GovCloud offering.

Onspring is bootstrapped apart from a 2023 investment by Capital IP Investment Partners LP, and operates with no public listing or disclosed parent company. Recognition includes #1 ranking from Info-Tech Software Reviews for six consecutive years, G2 Momentum Leader / Best Support / High Performer badges, multiple Software Advice and Capterra best-of awards, and SC Magazine recognition for three consecutive years on the business resiliency product. Leadership includes co-founders Chris Pantaenius and Chad Kreimendahl, and CISO Nichole Windholz (2025 CyberSecurity Breakthrough CISO of the Year).
