TerraTrue
TerraTrue is a San Francisco privacy and security platform that bakes compliance into the product-development process instead of bolting it on at the end. Founded in 2018 by two former Snap executives, it automates privacy, AI, and third-party risk reviews from intake to approval - flagging GDPR, CCPA, and AI Act issues while products are still being designed, not after they ship. Customers like Lyft, Roku, and Elastic use it to turn slow legal bottlenecks into fast, repeatable workflows.
