Est. 2019 HQ United States Employees 124 Funding $87.1M Updated 2026-02-10
What it is

AI-native data governance and privacy compliance platform that automatically maps data flows at the code level, replacing manual data inventories and questionnaire-based compliance tracking. Co-founded by Leila Golchehreh (in-house data protection attorney) and Abhi Sharma (engineering). $62M+ total funding: Series A $30M (Menlo Ventures + Unusual Ventures, Sept 2021), Series B $32M (Thomvest Ventures lead + M12/Microsoft, Oct 2024). Vendor profile claims $87.1M — discrepancy unresolved, may include undisclosed rounds. SOC 2 Type II compliant (announced completion). Primary users: Chief Privacy Officers, DPOs, in-house privacy counsel, Deputy GCs (Patreon confirmed), legal ops teams handling data governance. Key features: automated data mapping via code-level scanning (‘Data Journeys’), DSR (Data Subject Request) management, consent management (including mobile CMP), contract analysis for privacy obligations, AI governance (EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF mapping), ROPA automation, shadow AI detection. Named customers: Samsara (case study published), Dayforce/Ceridian (CPO Sheila Jambekar testimonial), CHG Healthcare (Privacy Officer Heather Allen testimonial), Allen AI (case study video). Competes directly with OneTrust (incumbent, expensive, complex — active migration program targeting OneTrust customers), BigID (data intelligence), Transcend (DSR automation). Key differentiator: code-level scanning that maps data flows from source code in real-time rather than relying on manual questionnaires — the ‘AppDynamics for privacy’ approach per Menlo Ventures. Privacy Essentials tier: implementation in 2-3 hours. OneTrust migration: 5 business days. Enterprise platform: 15-minute initial vendor visibility. Exhibited at Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit 2026. G2 profile with reviews — users praise compliance management capabilities. Reddit: mentioned positively in r/privacy and r/gdpr as OneTrust alternative. Forbes coverage of CEO on AI governance business value. Enterprise pricing, not publicly listed. Privacy Essentials tier has transparent pricing. 30-day free AI Governance trial. ~124 employees, San Francisco HQ. Not relevant for solo practitioners, small law firms, litigation, criminal, family, or immigration practice. Core audience is in-house privacy/compliance teams at mid-to-large enterprises.
