About

Zania is an agentic AI platform transforming enterprise Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC). Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Palo Alto, California, Zania builds autonomous AI agents that execute complex security and compliance work - from controls testing and risk assessments to full audits - with provable accuracy in minutes. The company's purpose-built AI agents deliver 94%+ accuracy while operating 30× faster and at 90% lower cost than traditional methods, with less than 0.01% hallucination rates.

Backed by NEA, Anthropic, and Menlo Ventures, Zania has raised $18M in Series A funding to scale its operations. The company serves Fortune 500 enterprises and Big Four audit firms, helping organizations maintain perpetual compliance across frameworks including SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR. Led by CEO and Founder Shruti Gupta - former CISO at Airbnb, Instacart, and Brex - Zania's team combines deep GRC expertise with cutting-edge AI capabilities to help security leaders focus on strategic priorities instead of manual compliance work.
