Snapshot
Continue to About ↓- What it does
- Cortea is an AI software platform that helps audit firms and internal audit teams review audit work before sign-off.
More detail
- Its AI agents cross-check figures, disclosures, and assertions across the audit file, flag inconsistencies and apparent compliance gaps, and link each finding back to the source document for the auditor to review, approve, or override.
- It is positioned as a quality layer alongside existing audit systems rather than a replacement for the firm's systems of record.
- Best for
- External audit firms (financial statement and IT audits) and internal audit, compliance, or risk teams that want structured, traceable AI-assisted document review against frameworks such as ISA (UK) 315, IFRS, UK GAAP, and IDW/HGB, while keeping their own methodology and auditor judgement.
- Pricing
- No public price is listed.
More detail
- Cortea states that pricing depends on the use case, workflow complexity, document volume, and deployment model, and is scoped during an initial conversation or pilot discussion.
- No subscription tiers, minimums, per-engagement fees, onboarding costs, or overage charges are
- Main limitation
- Firms looking for a full audit management system or fully autonomous audit — Cortea does not replace systems of record and auditors must still review, approve, and sign.
More detail
- Also a poor fit for buyers who need self-serve signup or a published list price, since access is via a booked demo and pricing is a custom quote.

About
- Cortea is an AI software platform that helps audit firms and internal audit teams review audit work before sign-off.
- Its AI agents cross-check figures, disclosures, and assertions across the audit file, flag inconsistencies and apparent compliance gaps, and link each finding back to the source document for the auditor to review, approve, or override.
- It is positioned as a quality layer alongside existing audit systems rather than a replacement for the firm's systems of record.
What it helps with
- Audit teams spend too much time chasing documents and running repetitive manual checks as evidence volumes and reporting
- Reviews across engagements are inconsistent, and disclosure or compliance gaps can be missed before reports are issued.
- Firms need reviewability and defensibility, with every finding traceable back to the source document and review workflow
- Audit report quality review before sign-off needs a structured, repeatable step that fits existing methodology.
