Vault Platform is an enterprise-grade app for safely recording and reporting misconduct at work. This could be anything from harassment to bullying, discrimination, theft, fraud, or any kind of ethical dilemma or misbehaviour. It is designed to help employees feel safe to speak up about things that concern them at work and to receive updates that their organization has taken action. You are in complete control of your data with Vault Platform. You may include evidence of misconduct in the form of text, screenshots or photos. The reports you create remain privately and securely stored on your device until you are ready to submit them directly to your employer. You decide when and how to submit the reports. No one can access unsubmitted reports on your device. When you choose to submit a report you can identify yourself or remain anonymous. A third option, GoTogether(™), will only submit a record when another Vault Platform app user in your organization names the same specific individual giving you the power of reporting misconduct through strength in numbers.

Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Vault Platform at free against Diligent Boards's freemium. Vault Platform also leads on review sentiment (50% vs 28%) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Diligent Boards's advantage is rating (3.2 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (55 vs 10). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Diligent Boards holds the better App Store score, 3.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Diligent Boards has 55 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 28% of Diligent Boards's written reviews are positive against 50% of Vault Platform's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 15, 2026 respectively.
