A free, read-only scan of one AWS account against the technical requirements that gate the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR). You get a findings report that names every blocker and states plainly what the scan could not verify, plus one rescan every 90 days.

See your FTR blockers before you submit, at no cost.
The AWS Foundational Technical Review gates ACE eligibility, co-sell, and the "Request private offer" button on your solution listing. Most partners only find out what is wrong after a submission comes back marked Action required.
The veriQU Free FTR Readiness Scan runs the same read-only assessment as the paid veriQU product against one AWS account: more than 150 checks derived from the FTR prerequisites, the AWS Marketplace SaaS product requirements, and the Well-Architected pillars FTR gates (Security, Operational Excellence and Reliability).
What the free scan includes
One AWS account.
A full scan and a findings report: a verdict, every blocking item named, and the FTR prerequisites in the order they actually unlock.
One rescan every 90 days, so you can measure progress.
A plain statement of what the scan could not verify. Checks that no API can settle are reported as unresolved with the question a human must answer, never as a pass.
What it does not include
Step-by-step remediation guides, unlimited rescans, one-click remediations, scheduled compliance reports and the draft Well-Architected review are part of the paid veriQU packages. You can upgrade from the console at any time.
What it can see, and what it cannot
veriQU reads your account through a cross-account IAM role you create from a CloudFormation template we provide. The role is read-only, requires an ExternalId, and explicitly denies S3 object reads, DynamoDB item reads, Secrets Manager secret values and KMS decryption. It reads resource configuration, including Lambda and ECS environment variables, and reports offending values by name only, never by content. Revoke access at any time by deleting the stack.
AWS infrastructure charges
The scan itself is free. Any AWS infrastructure charges in your own account are billed to you by AWS separately. An IAM role itself carries no AWS charge.
Highlights
Free scan of one AWS account against more than 150 FTR-derived checks, with a findings report and one rescan every 90 days.
Read-only by policy: the assessment role denies S3 object reads, DynamoDB item reads, Secrets Manager values and KMS decryption.
Honest about its limits: checks no API can settle are reported as unresolved with the question to answer, never as a pass.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
This listing offers a single free option with no charge. You scan one AWS account and receive a findings report showing what blocks the Foundational Technical Review. The scan runs through a read-only role. You can rescan that same account once every 90 days. Pricing does not scale, since there is only this one free dimension covering a single account. There are no paid tiers, usage add-ons, or quantity options in this listing.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one AWS account for this free scan?
One AWS account is a single account you connect through a read-only IAM role launched from a CloudFormation template. The free scan covers that one account only. Each separate account you want scanned would need its own connection and its own scan.
How often can I run the free scan, and does cost change with repeated scans?
The free scan stays free with no charge. You can rescan the same account once every 90 days. Running a rescan does not add any cost. There is no metered usage or per-scan fee tied to this free dimension.
What does the free scan actually return?
You get a findings report that shows what blocks the Foundational Technical Review across your account, Marketplace listing, and partner prerequisites. The scan runs checks through a read-only role and never writes to your account. First results appear quickly after you connect.

veriQU runs a read-only assessment of your AWS account against the technical requirements that gate the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR), then returns a sequenced remediation plan. It reads resource configuration, never stored data, and tells you plainly what it could not verify - so you find every blocker before you submit rather than after AWS sends it back.
