Yak

Centralizing data for auditors

The Yak wordmark, white on Yak blue

We partnered with Yak to build a memorable brand and critical functionality so they could start landing their first customers.

Yak’s colour system — Charcoal, Blue, Green, Bear pink and Cream swatches with their hex values

The brand came first: a wordmark and stacked monogram, a colour system built around Yak's blue and cream, and a marketing site that puts the product in front of auditors.

The marketing site’s feature section — “Drive your IT audits with next-gen software”, document request and collection

Inside the product, auditors run each engagement step by step — document requests and control mapping, SOC 2 controls tables, client dashboards and a test paper editor — so audits stay on track.

The SOC 2 controls table — control language, owner, client status and evidence
The test paper editor — controls with their test steps, results and evidence
Three “Demo SOC 2 Engagement” progress cards — preparation, walkthrough, testing and review
The engagement steps timeline — audit period, planning, control language, walkthroughs and testing across the summer
