What you likely need

You're an early-stage technical founder with a clear compliance-automation thesis and a co-founder in place, but ZeroTB has yet to raise external funding. Your immediate priorities are validating revenue traction with early customers and packaging that proof for a pre-seed raise. Your strong engineering background and prior co-founder experience at TechKraft give you credibility to move fast.

Are these your current priorities?

We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.

  • fundraisingPrepare a pre-seed pitch deck anchored on ZeroTB's early customer wins and audit-time reduction metrics to approach compliance-focused angels and seed funds.
  • fundraisingApply to Y Combinator's next batch — ZeroTB's compliance-OS positioning and AI-native focus align well with YC's current portfolio appetite, and the Marl Accelerator relationship is a warm reference.
  • positioningSharpen your ideal customer profile around Series A SaaS companies facing their first SOC 2 audit, where the pain of 6-month timelines is most acute and budget authority is clear.
  • introsLeverage your former CISO background to get warm introductions to security-conscious CTOs and CISOs at growth-stage startups who are the primary buyers of compliance tooling.
  • hiringHire or bring on a part-time GTM advisor with experience selling security/compliance SaaS to startups, since your team currently skews heavily technical.
  • tacticalConsider open-sourcing a lightweight component of ZeroTB's compliance engine on GitHub to build developer trust and inbound interest — your existing 66-repo account gives you a head start.
  • positioningPublish a clear comparison against Vanta and Drata that highlights ZeroTB's deterministic compliance engine and autonomous remediation, since those are your most-cited competitors.
