Defend the world's data and intelligence to spark innovation and nurture trust
Our Story
Relyance AI was born from a simple realization: you can't secure what you can't see.
In late 2019, co-founders Abhi Sharma (CEO) and Leila Golchehreh (Chief Strategy Officer) recognized that legacy privacy and security tools were fundamentally broken for the AI era. Static scans and manual workflows couldn't keep pace with dynamic data flows and modern development velocity.
They envisioned something different: an AI-native platform that could track every data journey in real-time, from source code to cloud runtime to AI models. A platform that would turn data visibility from impossible to automatic.
Today, Relyance AI is the first AI & Data Security platform that maps complete data journeys, giving organizations the visibility and control they need to innovate confidently while staying secure and compliant.
We're building the future where data protection accelerates innovation instead of slowing it down.
Our Mission
To secure the future of data-driven enterprises by making every data journey visible, controlled, and compliant, from the first line of code to the final AI output.
Data Journeys™: Beyond Static Security
Traditional tools scan data at rest. We track data in motion.
Our proprietary Data Journeys™ technology provides the complete picture of how data flows through your systems, from code commit to cloud runtime to AI models. This continuous intelligence eliminates blind spots and enables proactive protection.
