What is NAVEX?
Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Lake Oswego, Oregon, NAVEX is a private GRC software company. Its NAVEX One platform serves more than 13,000 organizations worldwide and supports 88 million people.
NAVEX One is a cloud GRC platform that brings reporting, policy management, compliance training, disclosures, regulatory change, risk management and third-party risk into connected workflows. Its Nira AI agent supports routine work and guidance, while shared data, dashboards, benchmarking and APIs give compliance teams a common operating view. Organizations can start with one solution and add capabilities as their programs mature, rather than deploying the full suite at once.
The platform covers speak-up and incident management, policy lifecycle and attestations, learning, conflicts and disclosures, integrated risk management, third-party risk, regulatory change and analytics. It also supports localization, multilingual delivery, global hosting and AI-assisted features. The breadth is a strength for large programs, but the modular portfolio and enterprise implementation mean buyers should expect configuration work and a learning curve; G2 reviewers mention advanced-feature complexity and limited customization.
NAVEX primarily targets large and regulated organizations, including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, higher education and global employers. Pricing is annual and quote-based, shaped by company size, regions, selected solutions, reporting volume and workflow complexity; NAVEX says bundles can save up to 30 percent. There is no public entry price or standard free trial, although individual policy packages are offered as Foundation, Professional and Enterprise editions.
