High controversy — we do not recommend

Delve has been widely reported for compliance fraud allegations (including fabricated audit evidence). Y Combinator removed Delve from its portfolio in 2026. Delve denies intentional fraud and says it is still operating. ELI lists Delve for comparison only — we do not recommend it for new SOC 2 or GRC programs until trust is restored. Consider Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, or Sprinto instead.
