Noida-headquartered data privacy and compliance startup GoTrust has raised $400,000 in a pre-seed funding round led by Aevitas Capital Private Limited, with investments from other angel investors. The recently raised funds will be used to fuel product development, build the team, and drive the growth of the startup in domestic as well as international markets.
Established in 2023 by Himanshu Gautam, GoTrust offers a welcoming platform purpose-built to help organizations manage the challenges of cross-border data protection laws. Its main products include consent management, data mapping, and risk assessment, all focused on streamlining compliance processes and building customer trust.

GoTrust's privacy compliance platform is compatible with current enterprise infrastructure, permitting businesses to operationalize critical functionalities. Some important features include self-discovery, data subject rights (DSR) automation, third-party risk management, and centralized policy governance. The tool also features a DPO Runbook, that offers guided regulatory compliance monitoring on prominent regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and India's DPDPA.

The startup insists that its solution can substitute uneven, manual compliance processes with a safe, accessible, and user-centric counterpart, allowing businesses to reduce risk, save time, and build digital trust. Built to be scalable for any size company, GoTrust is focused on serving startups and enterprises alike in a climate of growing regulatory pressure globally.

With data privacy taking the center stage of organizational priorities, GoTrust is joining a fast-growing market dominated by international players such as OneTrust, Securiti.AI, and SISA Network Intelligence. The vision of the company is to arm organizations with the capabilities to ensure compliance while staying ahead of emerging data protection norms.
