We're thrilled to be investing in

. Audit and compliance are among the most universal – and most painful – functions inside large enterprises. What makes this market so compelling, and so ripe for disruption, is its combination of scale, uniformity, and pain. Petual is a domain-specific AI platform built for audit teams. It automates the long tail of drudgery that internal audit teams must do. And SOX is just the beginning. Petual will turn every audit and compliance team into a proactive, AI-powered control system for the enterprise. Petual's founder

is a second-time founder who has previously led engineering at Retool and held senior engineering leadership roles at Lyft. Petual is a world-class team transforming how the largest enterprises in the world function, and we’re excited to be backing them.
