Free tool to get SOC 2 compliance

You know when you try to sell to bigger customers, and they ask you if your data is secure?

They ask if you have a SOC 2?

Googling "SOC 2" leads you down a rabbit hole about compliance and policies. And you bump into a compliance tool that costs $10k-$15k to help you. There is no pricing... You had to find the pricing or ask around on the Indiehacker forum.

This is disingenuous. Makes you wonder do you even need SOC 2 compliance? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24486697

I know it's all overwhelming. I am learning that SOC 2 is confusing, and to qualify for bigger customers, you need to show your SaaS tool and your data is secure. Doing that shouldn't be a $10k-15k problem...
