AuditCue

AuditCue is a B2B SaaS governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platform founded in 2022 in Chennai, India, by Gaurav Kulkarni and Naren Janakiraman. The platform is purpose-built for CISOs and compliance teams in regulated markets, enabling organizations to manage the full audit lifecycle — from evidence requests and audit readiness through workpapers, risk visualization, third-party risk management (3rd and 4th party), ESG and sustainability reporting, and document management. Unlike conventional check-the-box compliance tools, AuditCue is designed to continuously operationalize risk and integrate controls across the enterprise. The company raised $1.5 million in a seed round led by Kalaari Capital, is a Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) member, and has been featured in Bessemer Venture Partners' 'The Rise of Cloud AI in India 2024' report. AuditCue operates out of IIT Madras Research Park in Chennai with a presence in San Francisco.
