What happened

Between the Oct 9, 2025 and Jan 2, 2026 captures of Vanta's pricing page, Pulse recorded 4 changes: Scale plan removed from pricing structure; Core plan renamed to Essentials with expanded agentic policy generator capabilities; Vanta AI Agent enhanced across all tiers with new 'agentic' capabilities - agentic search, agentic evidence checks, agentic policy generation, and agentic issue management; Vanta consolidated from two-segment pricing model ('Vanta for Startups' with Core/Plus and 'Vanta for GRC Professionals' with Growth/Scale/Enterprise) to a unified four-tier structure (Essentials, Plus, Professional, Enterprise). Pulse files it as a packaging change (plan removed, plan renamed, feature change, package change) with a downward direction.

Vanta's previous recorded change was "Vanta Enhances Core Plan with AI Agent and New Compliance Services, Removes Pen Test Benefit" (Q3 2025). Before that Pulse recorded "Vanta Enhances Growth Plan with Access Requests and Issue Management Features" (Q2 2025), "Vanta Restructures Pricing with New Offerings for Startups and GRC Professionals, Introducing Plus and Enterprise Plans" (Q1 2025) and "Vanta Enhances Growth Plan with 5 New Reports and Multiple Policy Approvers, Despite Risk Dashboard Removal" (Q4 2024). Vanta has been tracked since 2023-12-09.
