The problem it solves

Security questionnaires and RFP security sections arrive constantly and stall deals while your team copies answers from old spreadsheets and hunts through policy docs. This agent drafts a complete, sourced response for every question in minutes, citing the source document and version, and flags only the questions a human truly needs to answer. Your security team reviews and signs off instead of starting from scratch.

Who it's for

  • B2B SaaS security and GRC teams fielding frequent buyer questionnaires
  • Sales engineers and solutions consultants who own RFP security sections
  • Compliance managers maintaining SOC 2 and policy documentation
  • Trust and security leads at fintech, insurtech, and healthtech companies
  • Deal desk and revenue operations teams unblocking late-stage deals

What it does

  1. 1

    Ingest the questionnaire

    Accept the questionnaire as a file upload, email attachment, or pasted text and parse it into a structured list of questions organized by section.

  2. 2

    Search your answer library

    Query your connected Google Drive, Confluence, or Notion library for prior answers and policy language that map to each question.

  3. 3

    Match policy and compliance evidence

    Pull relevant language from SOC 2 reports, penetration test summaries, security policies, and data processing agreements to support each answer.

  4. 4

    Draft sourced responses

    Generate a complete draft answer for every question, citing the source document and version and noting a confidence level.

  5. 5

    Flag the gaps

    Identify questions with no good match, mark them clearly, and produce a gap report summarizing exactly what the security team must address.

  6. 6

    Deliver the package

    Return the formatted draft with gap flags and send a summary notification to your configured Slack channel or email for review.

  7. 7

    Hand off for sign-off

    Leave the final review and submission to a human, so nothing goes to the buyer without approval.

Key benefits

  • Turn around questionnaires in minutes instead of days, keeping deals moving
  • Every answer cites its source document and version for fast verification
  • Confidence scoring and gap reports focus your security team only where it matters
  • Reuse approved answers consistently so responses stay accurate and on-message
  • Delivers a complete draft package, not a pile of half-filled cells
  • Keeps a human in the loop for review and final sign-off before submission

Sample use cases

A 200-question vendor security questionnaire lands the week a deal is meant to close.

The agent parses every section, drafts cited answers from your library, flags the handful of true gaps, and returns a review-ready package the same day.

An RFP includes a dense security and data-handling section pasted into a Google Doc.

The agent ingests the pasted text, maps each item to your SOC 2 and policy docs, and produces a complete draft response with source citations.

A prospect asks about a control your current docs do not cover.

The agent marks the question as a gap, summarizes what is missing in a gap report, and notifies the security lead in Slack so they can supply the answer before submission.

Two questionnaires arrive in the same week from different buyers.

The agent drafts both from the same approved answer library, keeping wording consistent and freeing the team to review rather than rewrite.

Key integrations

  • Google Drive

    Stores the answer library, prior questionnaire responses, and policy and compliance documents the agent searches.

  • Confluence

    Alternative answer library and policy repository the agent can query for matching prior answers.

  • Notion

    Alternative answer library and compliance doc source for retrieving approved response language.

  • Slack

    Receives the finished response package and gap report notifications for human review.

  • Gmail

    Accepts questionnaires as email attachments and delivers the completed draft package to recipients.

Security questionnaires are a recurring tax on B2B software sales: every buyer asks a slightly different version of the same controls, and the answers already exist somewhere in a SOC 2 report, a policy doc, or a prior response. This agent treats your answer library as the single source of truth, retrieves the best match for each question, and keeps wording consistent across every response that goes out.

Because each draft answer carries a source citation and a confidence level, reviewers can move fast and trust what they are signing off on. The gap report concentrates human effort on the small set of questions that genuinely need a new answer, so your security team spends its time on judgment rather than transcription.

Getting started

  1. Import the workspace — Drag the template zip into the Gamut agent import dialog to create your own copy of the agent.
  2. Run agent onboarding — A setup session starts automatically and the agent-onboarding skill asks for your company context, which systems to connect, and your notification preferences.
  3. Give it a first questionnaire — Upload or paste a real security questionnaire and let the agent return a sourced, gap-flagged draft package.

Frequently asked questions

Does the agent submit answers to buyers on its own?

No. It produces a ready-to-review draft and a gap report, then notifies you in Slack or email. A human reviews and signs off before anything goes to the buyer.

Which systems does the Security Questionnaire Responder work with?

It reads your answer library and policy docs from Google Drive, Confluence, or Notion, and delivers the finished package and gap notifications through Slack or Gmail.

How is this different from filling out questionnaires manually or with a generic tool?

Instead of copy-pasting from old spreadsheets, the agent maps every question to your approved answers and current SOC 2 and policy documents, cites the source and version, and flags only the genuine gaps. You review a complete draft rather than starting from a blank sheet.

How does it handle questions it can't answer from existing materials?

It marks each unmatched question as a gap, includes it in a gap report summarizing what is missing, and notifies your security team so they can fill it before submission.

Where do the answers come from and can I trust them?

Answers are drawn only from your connected answer library and compliance documents, with a citation to the source document and version plus a confidence level on each response so reviewers can verify quickly.

What does it cost to use this template?

The template itself is free to import from the Gamut marketplace. You run it in your own Gamut workspace and connect your existing Google Drive, Confluence, Notion, Slack, or Gmail accounts.
