Overview

TrustCloud offers an AI-native security assurance platform purpose-built to help CISOs and CROs make data-driven security and risk decisions across hybrid IT environments. The platform combines AI- and API-driven automation to convert traditional GRC into a business enabler that reduces financial liability and accelerates revenue. In the last year the company introduced three capabilities—Hybrid Data Fabric, Continuous Control Monitoring on a Control Graph, and Assurance AI—to automate first‑party and third‑party risk and compliance assessments. Hybrid Data Fabric aggregates IT, business, security, and GRC data via 100+ integrations and an SDK; ConMon uses proprietary AI-driven relationship models to continuously test controls; Assurance AI applies ML, NLP, and RAG techniques over the Control Graph. Led by CEO Sravish Sridhar, TrustCloud serves hybrid enterprises and focuses on enhancing its AI capabilities and channel go-to-market motions. The company raised $15M in the reported round to support those plans. Kintent builds automation-first compliance products, including TrustShare (a live portal for sharing privacy and security information), TrustOps (tools to manage frameworks like CCPA and GDPR) and Respond, an AI engine that drafts answers to security questionnaires. The company emphasizes programmatic, truthful sharing of security and compliance information between vendors and customers. Kintent has grown quickly, reaching over $1M in annual recurring revenue within 12 months and serving more than 80 organizations, including Evisort, Jeeves, Snyk, Notarize and DataRobot. Founder and CEO Sravish Sridhar started Kintent in 2019 after co-founding Seven Numerals and Kinvey (the latter was acquired by Progress in 2017). The company plans to expand headcount from about 25 to between 50 and 60 by year-end and to invest in product expansion and support for additional compliance standards. Kintent intends to apply its automation and AI to reduce the manual burden of lengthy security questionnaires and to help CISOs transform compliance from a cost center into a trust and revenue enabler. Kintent’s core product, Trust Cloud, automates the tedious process of answering security and privacy compliance questionnaires by mapping systems and data to desired standards, generating remediation best practices, and continuously testing for validation. The platform assesses a customer’s technology landscape, classifies stored data (including PHI where relevant), and produces actionable recommendations to improve compliance. The company launched in 2019, developed the product in early 2020, and began selling in October 2020. As of the article, Kintent has 35 paying customers, 14 employees, and is in the high six figures in revenue, growing roughly 20–30% month‑over‑month since launch. CEO Sravish Sridhar, who previously sold Kinvey to Progress Software in 2017, says the seed will support hiring and continued product development. Kintent is also building a free DEI component for Trust Cloud to provide diversity metrics and reporting.
