Published SOC 2 Type II

EOS One publishes SOC 2 Type II

Winner: EOS OnePublished SOC 2 Type IIEOS One publicly identifies its SOC 2 report as Type II (controls assessed over a period of time, not only at a point in time). Ninety advertises SOC 2; its public materials do not specify the report type. That does not mean Ninety is Type I or that its controls are weaker.

Is EOS One the official EOS software?

EOS One is the official EOS® software, built and co-owned by EOS Worldwide, the organization behind Traction and the Entrepreneurial Operating System. Every tool follows the methodology as the book teaches it.

Gino Wickman, the creator of EOS, is an investor in EOS One. EOS One is also backed by AIX Ventures, the same firm behind Perplexity, Lovable, Windsurf, and Wispr Flow, and by Draper Associates (Tim Draper), early investors in Tesla and SpaceX who also back xAI (Grok).

Does EOS One include AI?

Every EOS One plan includes Atlas, an AI Chief of Staff that works inside the official software. Atlas knows your V/TO, Scorecard, Rocks, Issues, and To-Dos, so it can help you prepare for meetings and keep the team on track.

Because Atlas runs on top of the official EOS toolset, its help stays grounded in EOS as it is meant to be run.

Ninety offers its own AI assistant, Maz, on its paid plans, with personalized meeting prep on Thrive and Legacy. Ninety's MCP connection for outside AI assistants requires Thrive or Legacy. In EOS One, Atlas and MCP are included on every plan.

How simple is EOS One to run?

EOS One is focused on EOS and nothing else. Your leadership team opens it, sees the tools from the book, and gets to work without learning a broader platform first.

What EOS tools are included?

Everything your leadership team needs to run EOS lives in one place: V/TO, Accountability Chart, Scorecard, Rocks, Level 10 Meeting, Issues List with IDS, To-Dos, and Processes. It works whether you self-implement from Traction or work with an EOS Implementer.

Does EOS One have mobile apps?

EOS One has native apps on the App Store and Google Play, so your team can check the Scorecard, update Rocks, and capture Issues from anywhere.

How much does EOS One cost compared with Ninety?

EOS One is $10/user/month, with a 30-day free trial and no credit card required.

Ninety publishes tiered pricing: a Free plan at $0, Essentials at $12, Accelerate at $14, and Thrive at $16 per user per month, with a 30-day trial.

What support do you get?

Concierge Support from real people is available when you need it. Our team can help you set up EOS One step by step, so your leadership team is running its first Level 10 Meeting quickly.

Who is EOS One for, and who is Ninety for?

Ninety is a capable, established platform with many teams already using it. EOS One is the right fit for leadership teams that want their EOS software to come from EOS Worldwide itself, with AI included and one simple per-user price.
