Zero-Effort SOC 2 Evidence Collection
How MergeWhy captures SOC 2 CC8.1 evidence from your existing GitHub workflow. No spreadsheets, no screenshots, no manual evidence gathering.
The CC8.1 Evidence Trail
SOC 2 CC8.1 requires evidence that changes are authorized, tested, and approved before deployment. For engineering teams using GitHub, this evidence already exists in pull requests. The challenge is capturing it in a structured format that auditors can evaluate.
Automated Capture
MergeWhy installs as a GitHub App and observes your existing workflow. When a PR is opened, it begins capturing evidence: the description, linked tickets, review comments, CI results, and approval status. When the PR is merged, it seals this evidence with a SHA-256 cryptographic hash and evaluates it against your enabled compliance frameworks.
From Evidence to Audit Bundle
When audit season arrives, generate an audit bundle with one click. MergeWhy compiles all evidence records for the audit period, evaluates them against CC8.1 requirements, and packages everything into a downloadable ZIP with executive summary, control matrix, and per-change evidence details. What used to take weeks of manual preparation now takes minutes.
