With AI-powered summaries, you’ll see exactly what changed in your policy drafts so you can review and approve with confidence.

When you edit a policy in Vanta and submit it for approval, Vanta’s AI automatically highlights the key changes between the previous and new versions. This summary helps both editors and approvers quickly spot what’s new, saving everyone time.
