As 70% of legal, compliance, and privacy leaders cite rapid generative AI adoption as their top concern, SolidCore.ai steps in to provide enterprises with a secure pathway to deploy AI safely. Founded last year by cybersecurity veterans Eric Chiu and Hemma Prafullchandra, the company emerges from stealth with $4M in seed funding led by Runtime Ventures, alongside Epic Ventures and notable angel investors from the cybersecurity sector.
SolidCore.ai empowers organizations by delivering an immutable system of record fully integrated within their cloud environments. This platform forms the backbone for effective risk identification, monitoring, and resolution, allowing enterprises to deploy LLM-based applications and agents confidently. By bridging the gap between accelerated AI adoption and enterprise security requirements, SolidCore provides real-time visibility into every prompt and response, continuous monitoring, and audit-ready documentation without slowing innovation.

Consequently, organizations receive instant alerts if AI applications access or share unauthorized information. CIOs are promptly notified about new GenAI projects bypassing governance protocols or existing applications that switch to unapproved models. Teams can also monitor high request volumes that may indicate denial-of-service attacks or financial alerts.
“Enterprises are facing enormous pressure to capture the value of GenAI or risk being passed by the competition. With SolidCore, they can deploy GenAI applications at the speed innovation demands, confident that threats and compliance risks will be flagged in real time,” said Eric Chiu, co-founder and CEO of SolidCore.ai. “The first wave of enterprise migration to the cloud drove massive business value, but it opened significant security and compliance gaps. The stakes are even higher with GenAI, and SolidCore gives enterprises the missing infrastructure layer they need to move with speed.”
The founders bring proven enterprise experience. Eric Chiu previously founded HyTrust, securing cloud infrastructure for major financial and defense clients, including Bank of America, United Healthcare, Honeywell, and U.S. Central Command. Hemma Prafullchandra served as HyTrust’s CTO before joining Microsoft as CTO for M365 Security and Compliance and later as AI Security, Privacy, and Data Residency Architect, overseeing GenAI security implementations.

“The stakes are incredibly high for every organization to integrate GenAI into their existing products and new innovations while maintaining rock-solid security and compliance,” said Hemma Prafullchandra, co-founder and CTO. “We all agree on the potential of GenAI, but the creative and nondeterministic nature of LLMs pose novel risks. SolidCore provides organizations comprehensive visibility and continuous risk and compliance insights they need to use GenAI in a safe, secure and trustworthy manner.”
SolidCore supports multi-cloud environments and integrates directly at the API level, ensuring no performance impact. Its capabilities include complete capture of every AI interaction, real-time violation detection, continuous compliance monitoring aligned with NIST AI RMF and ISO/IEC 42001, and audit-ready evidence generation.
Industry leaders recognize SolidCore’s value. “Enterprise clients are searching for a partner who can help them promote trust and transparency with GenAI,” said Doug Barbin, President and National Managing Partner at Schellman. “SolidCore helps organizations ensure their LLM applications meet their compliance and security commitments.”
With partnerships across NVIDIA Inception, Google Cloud Builders, Microsoft Founders Hub, and AWS Activate, SolidCore stands out as a seed-stage startup with extensive industry backing. David Endler, co-founder of Runtime Ventures, added, “Eric and Hemma know this challenge better than anyone. With SolidCore, they’re building the observability and compliance foundation that enterprises need to move fast and stay safe.”
