Overview
At Ditan AI, we set out to replace a time-consuming, manual audit process with an AI-driven MVP. The first prototype mapped and defined workflows for control testing and workpaper generation, allowing AI agents to test evidence, perform attribute checks, and produce documents ready for auditor review.

Process
Auditing covers a broad range of activities, from financial reporting to operational reviews. To make the problem more approachable, the team narrowed the scope to SOC 2 cybersecurity audits, a high-demand area where accuracy, documentation, and compliance are critical.

01
Mapping
I began by learning how the founders collected and organized evidence, identified bottlenecks in auditor workflows, and determined which tasks could realistically be automated with their current technical capabilities. This foundation gave me enough context to start envisioning what an automated SOC 2 audit workflow might look like.

Wireframing
I created simple wireframes in Figma, using free UI kits to rapidly prototype flows from uploading evidence to reviewing controls. This provided a foundation for quick feedback.

Prototype
Facing an upcoming client demo, I built an interactive Figma clickthrough. This process revealed gaps in our flows, prompting me to expand the prototype, refine navigation, and add supporting screens for a seamless demo experience.

Outcome
A clear, functional flow for an AI-driven audit workflow
An interactive prototype to support client demos and investor discussions
A foundation for future iterations based on auditor and client feedback
