Privado

Privado is a privacy management platform that automates compliance workflows and delivers personal data visibility across web, mobile app, backend, and third-party software. The company's core offering centers on automating privacy assessments, data maps, and risk discovery to help privacy teams reduce manual effort and maintain regulatory compliance. Privado's platform scans codebases to identify how personal data is collected, processed, and shared — a capability TechCrunch described as analogous to "Grammarly for code privacy issues." This code-level analysis enables organizations to detect privacy risks at the development stage rather than after deployment. The platform supports product privacy management by providing evidence-based documentation of privacy practices, moving teams from policy statements to verifiable proof of compliance. It also includes website privacy auditing capabilities, a category that G2 has formally recognized as a distinct market segment. Privado targets privacy engineering and privacy operations teams at technology companies, offering tools to build and maintain data maps, conduct privacy impact assessments, and monitor third-party data flows. The company operates a Privacy Engineering Center of Excellence (CoE) and hosts the Bridge Summit, an annual technical privacy conference for practitioners. The company was co-founded by Vaibhav Antil (CEO), Jasdeep Singh (CRO), and Prashant Mahajan (CTO), and has received funding from investors including Insight Partners and Sequoia Capital, raising at least $14 million. Privado operates across the US, Europe, and India.
