FEHA is disrupting the GRC market by transforming passive compliance tools into intelligent systems that actually perform risk and compliance work—not just track it.
The problem is fundamental: most GRC platforms store documents but don't evaluate them, creating a dangerous illusion of compliance that fails when real auditors arrive. Security tools flood teams with alerts but provide no help prioritizing fixes. Organizations drown in data while compliance teams remain overwhelmed.
Our AI-powered suite actively does the analytical work. FEHA GRC uses AI to review evidence and validate compliance claims. Guard Risk serves as an AI assistant for auditors and risk professionals. 3rdComply performs AI-driven third-party risk assessments with 24/7 monitoring. TraceRisk automatically triages security issues and recommends solutions.
Unlike competitors like Vanta and Drata who focus on task management, our AI is trained to understand regulations, assess evidence, and perform actual GRC work. We're building comprehensive coverage of all regulations—international and local—because compliance doesn't stop at popular certifications.
This turns compliance from a resource drain into a strategic advantage, making enterprise-grade GRC intelligence accessible to mid-market organizations globally.

Our distinctive positioning targets the underserved mid-market segment (50-5,000 employees). These organizations face enterprise-level compliance obligations but lack the resources of larger corporations. They need intelligent automation, not just more software. While competitors like Vanta and Drata focus primarily on North American customers and standard certifications, our multi-regional presence and commitment to comprehensive regulatory coverage positions us uniquely for global expansion.
We operate from dual hubs—Amsterdam (EU/MENA) and Singapore (APAC)—enabling localized support across time zones while understanding region-specific regulatory nuances. Our go-to-market strategy combines direct sales with strategic partnerships, working with organizations that share our vision to make GRC accessible and effective.
Despite pivoting to technology only in 2024, we've already achieved international customer adoption across Netherlands, Germany, UAE, UK, Singapore, Australia, and the USA—demonstrating both product-market fit and our ability to serve diverse regulatory environments.
Our AI-first architecture enables rapid scaling without proportional increases in support costs. As we expand framework coverage and refine our AI models, each improvement benefits our entire customer base simultaneously. Our multi-product strategy creates natural upsell pathways—customers starting with FEHA GRC often expand to Guard Risk or 3rdComply. We're targeting 10,000 companies by 2030, currently bootstrapped with plans for external funding in 2027 to accelerate exponential growth.

FEHA operates with a lean team of approximately 20 specialized professionals, deliberately structured to bridge regulatory expertise and cutting-edge technology.
Our founder brings 15+ years of hands-on experience in IT audit, risk management, and compliance across global organizations including DHL, Heineken, FedEx, APG Asset Management, and ASML. This deep operational background ensures our solutions address real-world challenges rather than theoretical compliance scenarios—we've lived the problems we're solving.
The team combines three critical competencies: compliance and risk experts who understand regulatory nuances across frameworks, DevOps engineers ensuring robust and scalable infrastructure, and AI engineers developing the intelligent models that differentiate our products. This multidisciplinary blend is essential—building effective GRC AI requires both domain expertise to train models correctly and technical excellence to deploy them reliably.
We're a fully remote organization, enabling us to support customers across multiple time zones in EU, MENA, and APAC seamlessly. This structure also allows us to attract top talent regardless of location.
Practicing what we preach, FEHA is ISO 27001:2022 certified and pursuing ISO 42001 certification to demonstrate our commitment to responsible AI development and EU AI Act compliance—ensuring customers can trust both our expertise and our operational standards.

FEHA's vision is continuous compliance—where organizations maintain regulatory readiness in real-time through AI that actually performs GRC work, transforming compliance from a cost center into a strategic asset.
Our 2024 pivot from consulting to technology was a strategic course correction, recognizing that advisory work alone couldn't scale the impact we envisioned. This transition required rebuilding our business model and developing new capabilities, but reinforced our commitment to building solutions that genuinely work, not just look good in demos.
Despite this recent pivot, we've already achieved significant traction with customers across seven countries (Netherlands, Germany, UAE, UK, Singapore, Australia, USA), validating our product-market fit and ability to serve diverse regulatory environments. We're deepening our presence in EU, MENA, and APAC through strategic partnerships with organizations that share our mission to make GRC accessible and effective.
Currently fully bootstrapped, we've maintained focus on customer value and product excellence. Our goal is serving 10,000 companies by 2030, and we're planning external funding in 2027 to accelerate this growth—expanding framework coverage, scaling AI capabilities, and building our partner ecosystem.
Our AI-first architecture means improvements scale instantly across our entire customer base, making growth efficient and sustainable. Each new regulation or framework we add benefits all customers simultaneously, creating compound value as we expand.
