Overview
Asula Labs is a data security platform that uses artificial intelligence to help enterprises protect sensitive information while enabling AI development. It scans and classifies data across data stores such as Snowflake, Databricks, and S3, then enforces security and privacy policies so only authorized users can access specific data and in ways that comply with regulations. A distinctive feature is generating privacy-preserving copies of data, which lets data science and engineering teams build and test AI models on realistic data without exposing the real sensitive details. The company operates on a B2B model targeting large enterprises that want to leverage AI and large language models securely, backed by investors like Y Combinator. The goal is to let organizations unlock the value of their data for AI applications without compromising privacy or compliance.
