Fifth Ace

Know where your security stands.

Ante is an 18-question security checklist your team can finish in one sitting. It gives you a score, tells you what to fix first, and keeps a record of incidents when they happen.

Every new organization gets 14 days of Pro. No card needed.

What Ante does

Plain-language questions

Eighteen questions that say what they mean. If one needs explaining, the explanation is right there. Your progress is saved, so you can finish between meetings.

A score you can explain

You get an overall score and a score for each area, so it is clear where you are strong and where you are not.

A ranked list of fixes

Ante puts the fixes in order, starting with the ones that matter most. Free shows your top three. Pro shows the whole list.

Ready-made question sets

Import a question set instead of writing your own, and work through it the same way as the quick start.

A record of incidents (Pro)

When something happens, write it down while it is fresh. On Pro, the incident log gives you a record for when someone asks what happened.

Review reminders (Pro)

Security is not a one-time job. On Pro, Ante emails you when it is time to review again.

Your history (Pro)

Every review is kept, so you can see how your score changes over time.

Your data, as a spreadsheet (Pro)

Download your answers and results as a CSV file whenever you like. Included in Pro.

You decide who sees your answers

Ante asks only for what the checklist needs. We see totals only, and looking at your answers needs an Organization Admin to switch that on. It switches itself off after 7 days.

Your whole team

Add people to your organization as Organization Admins or Members. Free is for one person. Pro is for everyone.

One sign-in for both apps

Sign in once at the portal for Ante and Cardea. Passkeys work too.

Priority support (Pro)

Anyone can send a Request from the portal. On Pro, yours is answered first.

Questions

What happens if Pro ends?

Nothing is deleted. You go back to Free, and anything past the Free limits is kept safe and comes back when you upgrade.

Do I need a card for the trial?

No. Every new organization gets 14 days of Pro, once for each app, with no card.

Is the price per person?

No. One price covers your whole organization, however many people use it.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes. Cancel whenever you like and keep using the Free plan.
