Vircon Legal advised Compuvi: the US-incorporated AI platform behind Confinaid: on its pre-seed funding round at a USD 2.5 million valuation, closed July 2025.
About Compuvi & Confinaid
Compuvi is a US-based AI platform founded by Ataberk Çiftlikli. Its flagship product, Confinaid, is an AI-powered insider risk shield designed to prevent the internal communication risks that traditional firewalls miss: data leakage, KVKK/GDPR violations, and competition law exposure that originate from within the organization.
Confinaid sits across three layers:
- Real-time protection: AI agents analyse every outgoing email before “Send” is pressed and block high-risk communications in seconds.
- Historical risk remediation: the platform scans existing email archives to surface and contain risky messages from years past.
- AI Rewrite: instead of just blocking risky text, Confinaid rewrites it in a compliant, professional tone so workflow stays uninterrupted.
Round Details
The pre-seed round was led by an international private equity fund (LP identity remains confidential at the investor’s election; deal documentation reviewed by reporting parties). The valuation reflected strong pre-launch demand: pre-orders from financial services, retail, telecoms, and technology sectors all preceded the close.
Proceeds will accelerate the August 2025 product launch and expand the Istanbul-based engineering and AI team.
Vircon’s Role
Vircon Legal represented Compuvi in the transaction: counsel scope included corporate structuring across the US C-Corp parent and Türk subsidiary, founder equity and ESOP planning, term sheet negotiation, definitive documentation, and closing mechanics. Our Türkiye-side expertise on ESOP design, KVKK compliance, and US flip-up structures bridged the cross-border deal architecture.
