Comp AI raises $34M Series A for agentic security and compliance platform

Comp AI, a cybersecurity and compliance startup, said Thursday it has raised a $34 million Series A round led by Roo Capital and Grand Ventures.

The company was founded in January 2026 by Lewis Carhart (CEO), Claudio Fuentes (COO) and Mariano Fuentes (CTO). The three previously built LeapAI, a workflow platform that grew to over one million users before being shut down. That experience gave them hands-on knowledge of building with large language models and exposed them to the tedious SOC 2 compliance process.

Comp AI is developing an agentic platform in which AI agents help draft security policies, collect evidence for audits and continuously monitor whether a company meets compliance controls. Carhart said the software helps companies meet and maintain security requirements, but does not replace independent audit review or humans. People still review and approve agent-drafted policies, support controls and maintain the agentic workflow.

The company also offers AI-powered penetration testing, where the platform proactively tests codebases and infrastructures for vulnerabilities. The Series A capital is expected to support product expansion. Comp AI has raised $37.5 million in total funding to date.

Carhart said rapid adoption of AI is creating a need for continuous and potentially autonomous security and compliance platforms. He noted that audits are not designed to show in real time what changed after they are completed. Comp AI is starting with permissions and accountability as it builds toward a security layer that can monitor and validate such risks more continuously.
