About
DataGrail is a comprehensive agentic data privacy platform designed to help organizations manage complex privacy obligations with the power of AI. At its core is Vera, DataGrail's fully integrated AI privacy agent that delivers context-aware recommendations, automates tedious privacy workflows, and supports human oversight at every step—without requiring prompt engineering. The platform's Live Data Map provides continuous visibility into where personal data lives across an organization's tech stack, proactively alerting teams to new systems and changes. Its Full DSR (Data Subject Request) Automation handles fulfillment across 2,500+ connected applications, dramatically reducing manual workload. Consent Management ensures websites stay compliant 24/7, while Automated Assessments enable teams to generate accurate PIAs and DPIAs in minutes rather than months. DataGrail also addresses emerging challenges like AI governance, responsible data discovery, and sensitive data identification across data sources. A built-in Risk Register helps teams find and remediate risks before they become regulatory problems. Supporting all major privacy regulations—including EU GDPR, US CCPA (California), CPA (Colorado), and VCDPA (Virginia)—DataGrail is trusted by some of the world's most recognized brands. It is particularly suited for legal, privacy, and security teams looking to replace legacy tools like OneTrust with a more automated, scalable solution. Customers report over 75% reductions in time spent on consent policy management and significantly faster DSR processing.
