Overview

Dimeri Internal Audits is a web-based tool for planning and managing internal audit engagements, fieldwork, findings, and committee reporting. It is best suited to organisations with audit committees or regulatory oversight, particularly those working within African regulatory frameworks. Its free workspace makes it possible to start with a small team, but access to workpapers, reporting, and connectors depends on the plan.

Key features

Planning and engagement management

The risk-based annual plan, coverage mapping, audit calendar, and resource utilisation tracking connect audit priorities with scheduled work and team capacity. That is useful for teams coordinating a portfolio of engagements; it offers less to organisations looking only for a place to record individual audit tasks.

AI-assisted workpapers

Dimeri can draft workpapers from an engagement’s scope and prior findings, including procedures, observations, and conclusions, with version history. This gives auditors a structured starting point, while the history helps track revisions. Workpaper management may require an upgrade, so the free workspace should not be treated as a complete workpaper system.

Findings, remediation, and reporting

Findings can include severity, root cause, and management response, link to risks and controls, and move into follow-up actions with automated overdue reminders. This gives audit teams a way to keep remediation visible after fieldwork. Reports include executive summaries, findings, and recommendations and can be exported to PDF or Word, though automated reporting may require an upgrade.

Standards, security, and access

Dimeri says its workflows align with IIA Standards, King IV, PFMA, and AGSA requirements, a relevant fit for organisations working under those frameworks. It also says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, workspaces are isolated, and customer data is not used to train AI models. Owner, Admin, Member, and Viewer roles, an activity audit trail, and Business-plan SAML single sign-on provide controls for managing access.

Pricing

Dimeri’s plans are priced in ZAR. The free audit workspace supports planning, engagement management, and findings tracking for up to three users. The pricing page’s Free plan is free (billed R0/ forever) and includes 10 AI messages per day, AI dashboard access, and basic GRC research and drafting; it has no export, connectors, or custom dashboards. Free includes standard email support, but teams should confirm which audit capabilities are covered before relying on it for workpapers or reporting.

Starter: 300.00 ZAR per month (billed R300/ month). It adds unlimited AI messages, research mode, and policy and checklist drafting. It suits teams needing more AI use, but does not include the export and custom dashboards included at the next tier.
Professional: 500.00 ZAR per month (billed R500/ month). It includes everything in Starter plus PDF, Word, and Excel export, custom dashboards, and Kanban boards. Priority email support is included.
Business: 700.00 ZAR per month (billed R700/ month). It adds Excel, Google Drive, OneDrive, and SharePoint connectors to Professional. It also includes SAML single sign-on and priority email support.
Enterprise: custom pricing. It includes the full record modules, including Internal Audit, Risk Register, AI-linked Controls, AI Reports, team collaboration, dedicated onboarding, and an African regulatory corpus. This is the plan to consider when the full module set is needed.

The plan descriptions do not give a trial term or seat allowances beyond the free audit workspace’s three-user cap. Teams should weigh the cheaper plans against the limits on exports, connectors, and audit-module access.

Platforms

Dimeri Internal Audits runs on the web. Organisations requiring a desktop or mobile app should look at alternatives with those platforms.

Who it's for

Dimeri identifies listed companies, public sector entities, financial institutions, state-owned enterprises, and organisations with audit committees or regulatory oversight as intended users. Its alignment claims and African regulatory corpus make it particularly relevant to teams working with IIA Standards, King IV, PFMA, or AGSA requirements. The free workspace is a practical starting point for a small audit team; larger teams or those requiring integrated workpaper management and reporting should examine the upgrade requirements.

Pros and cons

Pros: Risk-based planning, coverage mapping, scheduling, and resource tracking sit alongside findings follow-up, giving teams a connected view of audit work.
Pros: AI-assisted workpaper drafts draw on engagement scope and prior findings, with version history to track changes.
Pros: The free audit workspace supports up to three users and includes planning, engagement management, and findings tracking.
Cons: Workpaper management and automated reporting may require an upgrade, limiting the free workspace for teams that need a complete audit workflow.
Cons: The free plan has no connectors or exports, while connectors start at Business, priced at 700.00 ZAR per month.
Cons: The product is web-only, and Enterprise pricing is custom.

Alternatives

Consider Internal Audit Software to compare a broader set of products. Archer Audit Engagements & Workpapers is a paid option with web, mobile, desktop, API, extension, and self-hosted platforms; choose it if that platform breadth matters. Guardial Audit Management offers a free trial and custom proposal pricing that scales with modules and program size, which may suit teams seeking a proposal tailored to their program. PonoAudit is a paid option with a free trial and Android, iOS, and web access; its Essentials plan is 99.00 USD per month for five full seats, unlimited collaborators, and 10 GB storage. CORAA is a paid option with a free trial and mobile and web apps; its 10-entity pack costs 30000.00 INR per once and includes unlimited users and all features, with a minimum purchase of 10 entities. SmartSuite Enterprise Service Desk is a paid option with a free trial and web, iOS, and API platforms; compare it if those platforms or its Team plan, priced at 15.00 USD per month billed annually, better fit your needs. OrviQ is another paid option with API and web platforms. Protecht uses annual license fees based on named active users, with marketplace templates and its Operational Resilience module costing extra; choose it if that licensing structure fits your organisation. Riskonnect offers a paid integrated risk management platform across Android, iOS, API, and web, with pricing based on project size, complexity, and customisation.

Verdict

Dimeri Internal Audits is a strong fit for audit teams at African enterprises and public bodies that need planning, workpaper drafting, findings follow-up, and reporting in one web workspace. Its free audit access lowers the barrier for a team of up to three, but the need to upgrade for workpaper management, automated reporting, or connectors can change the economics. Choose it for its audit-cycle coverage and stated alignment with regional frameworks; look elsewhere if you need mobile or desktop access, or require a full audit workflow without plan uncertainty.
