Cortea

Schönhauser Allee 180, Berlin, Berlin, 10119, Germany

Overview

Cortea develops AI-driven "Audit Quality Agents" designed to check audit reports, annual financial statements, footnote disclosures and working papers for inconsistencies, missing information and potential errors. Its agents work alongside existing audit systems and review workflows, preparing findings for auditors so teams can spend more time on professional judgment while retaining control over final outcomes. In the most recent audit season Cortea's technology supported the production of more than 4,000 audit reports and identified issues in every reviewed report, yielding multiple days of manual review time saved per engagement. The company is positioning to expand deeper integrations with major audit platforms and broaden its footprint in Germany, the U.K. and the U.S. Cortea emphasizes traceability, defensibility and alignment with audit standards as central design principles. The business recently raised €12 million in seed funding to accelerate product development and geographic expansion.
