The company builds an enterprise AI governance and enablement platform — branded AI Comply — that helps organizations build AI system inventories, apply policies, map compliance to global regulatory frameworks (EU AI Act, ISO 42001, NIST RMF, GDPR), conduct automated risk assessments, and generate audit-ready reports. Enzai was incorporated on August 13, 2021 (UK Companies House number NI681546) and raised a $4M seed round in September 2023 led by Cavalry Ventures with participation from Seedcamp, Techstart Ventures, and angels. The company holds ISO 27001 certification (since 2023, audited annually by NQA) and integrates with over 50 enterprise tools. Enzai serves financial services, healthcare, insurance, HR, and government customers globally.

Saidot offers a SaaS platform for AI governance that connects AI system inventories with knowledge graphs of risks, models, and controls to automate risk identification, mitigation suggestions, and compliance workflows. Targeted at enterprises and governments, particularly in Europe, it supports safe AI deployment through features like automatic control inheritance, step-by-step EU AI Act templates, evidence reuse across systems, and integration with existing GRC tools. Its knowledge graph enables dynamic updates as AI components change, distinguishing it by reducing manual governance efforts and enabling scalable, adaptive compliance for both in-house and third-party AI. The platform serves public and private organizations, with case studies in financial services, human resources, and media.CB Insights profile Saidot product page Saidot homepage
