Cybersecurity startup Comp AI has raised $34 million in Series A funding to develop AI agents for security and compliance automation. The company aims to streamline tedious processes like SOC 2 audits for enterprise clients.
Why it matters
The rise of agentic AI in the cybersecurity sector represents a shift toward automating complex regulatory and compliance workflows.
Comp AI , a cybersecurity and compliance startup, announced that it has raised a $34 million Series A round on Thursday. The round was led by Roo Capital and Grand Ventures.
The company was founded last January by Lewis Carhart (CEO), Claudio Fuentes (COO), and his brother, Mariano Fuentes (CTO). Claudio and Mariano had been building startups together for nearly a decade, met Carhart a few years ago, and invited him to join LeapAI, a workflow platform they were building. Claudio was the CEO and co-founder, while Carhart served as head of growth and Mariano was a senior full-stack engineer. The startup ran for about two years, growing to more than a million users, but they eventually decided to shut it down after not finding a “sticky enough use case to warrant continued investment.”
