Frequently asked questions
What does DataSnipper actually do?
DataSnipper is an add-in for Excel used by audit and finance teams to collect and verify evidence. It matches documents, extracts data from forms, invoices and contracts, compares document versions, and lets agents run end-to-end procedures such as tests of detail, revenue testing and controls testing. Every result links back to its source document so a reviewer can sign off.
How is DataSnipper priced?
DataSnipper sells three plans — Start, Accelerate and Elevate — plus add-on modules including the Financial Statement Suite and UpLink. No list prices are published on the pricing page; plans are quoted after a demo, so buyers should expect an annual subscription quote and a sales cycle before rollout.
Is our client data used to train AI models?
No. DataSnipper's security page states its AI runs on pre-trained models only and that DataSnipper does not fine-tune or train any AI on customer data. DocuMine stores input for up to 24 hours, Advanced Document Extraction deletes processed documents within 24 hours, and data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2 or higher in transit.
Which certifications does DataSnipper hold?
DataSnipper states it is SOC 2 Type II compliant and aligns with GDPR and the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework; it also references the EU AI Act. No ISO 27001, HIPAA, FedRAMP or ISO 42001 claims appear on the security or trust pages. SOC 2 and penetration test reports and a SIG questionnaire are available as confidential documents.
How heavy is implementation?
Light. DataSnipper installs as an add-in for Excel and Excel Online, and the vendor says it works the way teams already work, pulling evidence into Excel instead of forcing a new system. Single sign-on is included on all plans; directory sync, external guest access and premium support require the top Elevate tier.
What support is included?
All plans include the Knowledge Base and Academy, Customer Success Guidance and a Global Business Support Hour, per the pricing page's feature list. Premium Services and Premium Support are limited to the top Elevate tier. DataSnipper publishes no response-time SLA.
