Be one of the first named reviewers MSPs work with.
MSPs serving small businesses have no security lead, and every client on a plan needs a named reviewer four times a year. Value Aligners brings that work to you as briefs built from scored assessments. Joining is free and your rates are your own.
Recurring review work, starting where discovery usually ends.
Independent advisors spend unpaid time finding clients and running discovery, and never see inside the MSPs that need them most.
Briefs built from scored assessments, routed through the MSP, plus a named-reviewer role that recurs every quarter for each client on a plan.
- Briefs with sector, frameworks and findings
- A recurring reviewer role, four times a year per client
- Your rates, no exclusivity
- A founding place among the first three advisors
Good advisors spend too much time finding the next client.
- Client acquisition is cold outreach, and leads arrive with no context.
- Every engagement starts with unpaid discovery you could have skipped.
- The MSPs that need a security lead never let you see their workflow.
- Invoicing and collection take time away from the work.
A brief you can say yes to in five minutes.
The evidence that ranked the client's gaps becomes your brief. You decide whether to take it.

Applyvciso.valuealigners.com/↗What advisors ask us first.
What am I signing as named reviewer?
That you reviewed the evidence shown, on the date shown. The attestation to the insurer stays the MSP's and the client's. You are not certifying the client.
Will this put me in conflict with MSPs?
No. Reviewer and advisory work is routed to you through the MSP, not around it.
Is there exclusivity?
None. Keep every client you bring, and pay nothing on them.
Who sets my rates?
You do. The per-review fee is set with founding advisors.
