Nudge is a solid way to discover SaaS and AI across a workforce. But the full product is priced per user and bought through a custom quote, and what you get is a dashboard. FailSafe publishes its plans, lets you sign up with a card, and hands you a posture audit mapped to the frameworks an auditor or insurer asks about. Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. No agents.
Most SaaS security tools, Nudge included, route you through a quote to actually buy. FailSafe is built around three things the rest of the category makes hard.
Plans are published from $149 per month. No "contact us" wall to learn what it costs, and no quote sized to your headcount. Pick a plan, pay by card.
Sign up, connect Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace with read only access, and start. No demo gate, no order form, no implementation project.
No agents to deploy. Your first scan runs as soon as you connect, most finish within the hour, and you leave with a compliance mapped PDF you can act on.
