About Norm Ai

Norm Ai is the Compliance AI Platform for legal standards-based reasoning & workflow automation.

We developed the first Domain Specific Language (DSL) for fully representing regulatory requirements in AI code. This DSL, deployed with our enterprise platform, enables Norm clients to transform workflows and apply compliance checks at the source of business activities.

By building and deploying Government-Grade Regulatory AI, we are setting the norms for compliance processes at the largest institutions in the world, and laying the groundwork for the deployment of AI agents more broadly in highly regulated workflows. Our client base includes firms with a combined $17 Trillion in AUM, and growing quickly.

Our Software Engineers came from Palantir, Google, Meta, AWS, Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. Our Legal Engineers are from Harvard Law, Stanford Law, Yale Law, Sullivan & Cromwell, Simpson Thacher, Davis Polk, Greenberg Traurig, the SEC, and FINRA.

We have raised capital over the past 18 months from Vanguard, Blackstone, Bain Capital, Coatue, Craft Ventures, New York Life, Citi, TIAA, Larry Summers, and Marc Benioff.
