Privado connects with source code management tools (including GitHub) to scan code for privacy issues, monitor data usage, identify data flows and notify developers of problems such as excessive privileges or data leakages to logs. The product surfaces a data privacy score for existing products and flags privacy and data-security issues as engineers write new code—founders describe it as “Grammarly for code.” Privado also offers a free Android tool that generates Play Store data safety reports and is expanding that into an open-source privacy code-scanning project. The company is post-revenue, has signed six-figure contracts, and monitors more than 600,000 code commits; its clients include Here.com, Thrasio and Zego. Pricing is based on the number of code repositories or products it scans and monitors. Privado was founded last year and is based in Pune, India and Delaware; it plans to grow its tech, increase headcount to 25 people, and expand its open-source community.
