ZeroTB

What They’re Building

ZeroTB is an AI-native compliance automation platform that turns high-stakes security certifications like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA from a 6-month consulting nightmare into a week's product experience. By connecting directly to a company’s tech stack (AWS, GitHub, HRIS), ZeroTB automates evidence collection and uses AI to generate tailored policies, providing a real-time "audit-readiness" dashboard for growing B2B and AI-first startups.

The Problem

1. Startups lose big enterprise contracts simply because they don’t have the right security certifications in place. Getting certified usually means hiring costly consultants and spending months doing manual, tedious work.
2. Compliance lives in scattered spreadsheets and static checklists that are outdated almost as soon as they’re created, so no one fully trusts them.
3. Frameworks like SOC 2 and GDPR are packed with dense legal language that doesn’t translate well to fast-moving engineering teams, leading to confusion, burnout, and missed controls.

The Breakthrough

1. Unified Compliance Intelligence:ZeroTB doesn’t just slap AI on top of compliance. It uses a hybrid engine that blends structured control mapping with LLMs trained on real audit patterns. The result? Regulations get translated into clear, practical tasks your dev team can actually work on.
2. Automated Evidence Mapping:Instead of manually gathering proof, ZeroTB connects to the tools you already use like your code repo or access logs and automatically maps real activity to auditor-ready controls. It’s like having a system that quietly keeps your evidence organized in the background.
3. Opinionated Workflows:ZeroTB goes beyond listing requirements. It tailors them to your actual architecture and stack, scoping what matters and drafting context-aware policies that fit your company, no generic templates, no checkbox theater.

Why This Matters

ZeroTB represents where global trust is headed. As AI startups grow, trust becomes their real currency. By building this kind of “trust infrastructure” from Nepal, Ravi and the team are opening doors to enterprise markets around the world. They are ensuring that a startup’s geography doesn't limit its ability to sell to a Fortune 500 company, fostering Inclusion in the global digital economy through automated, verifiable security.
