Compuvi, the LegalTech and RegTech artificial intelligence company behind compliance platform Confinaid, has closed a seed funding round at a $40m post-money valuation.
The round is backed by Turkish investor Islam Yildiz and Istanbul-based Ozay Law Firm, led by founding partner Merter Ozay. Ozay Law Firm takes a dual role in the deal, participating as both a financial backer and Compuvi’s strategic legal partner in the region. Further institutional and strategic investors are expected to be named in the months ahead.
The capital will be directed towards three areas: advancing the artificial intelligence engineering underpinning Confinaid, building out go-to-market operations across the United States and European Union, and completing enterprise-grade security certifications including SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, and ISO 42001. Compuvi also plans to broaden Confinaid’s policy library, deepen integration coverage, and develop its human-in-the-loop review tooling across its target sectors.
Over the past year, Compuvi brought Confinaid from its initial release through to its first generally available enterprise version, secured places in programmes including NVIDIA Inception and Cloudflare for Startups, began commercial engagements with enterprises in regulated industries, and established legal and compliance advisory relationships across the United States, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.
Confinaid is a preventive legal and compliance risk intelligence platform operating at the crossroads of LegalTech and RegTech. It serves regulated enterprises across financial services, healthcare, legal, telecom, energy, and listed technology sectors, with the platform designed to address compliance risk at the point of creation rather than after the fact.
The combined investment from Ozay Law Firm and Yildiz is framed by the company as a strategic alignment between capital and domain expertise, with the law firm’s decision to place its own capital alongside a legal partnership described as a form of structural validation that purely financial backing cannot replicate.
Investor Islam Yildiz said, “While many AI solutions in the market are focused on solving similar problems, Confinaid has developed a unique approach in the field of Preventive Compliance. I was impressed by the platform’s deep expertise and clear vision, both rooted in the real-world needs of legal, compliance, and ethics teams. I believe Confinaid is creating an entirely new category within enterprise compliance technology.”
Ozay Law Firm founding partner Merter Ozay said, “Modern enterprises face a new generation of legal and compliance risk that demands new infrastructure. Confinaid is the first platform we have seen that approaches this challenge with the legal rigor, technical depth, and architectural seriousness the moment requires. We believe in this thesis enough to back it with our own capital, and to stand alongside Compuvi as its strategic legal partner in the region as it scales globally.”
Compuvi founder and CEO Ataberk Ciftlikli said, “Our thesis since founding has been that preventive compliance becomes a competitive advantage in the AI era, not a cost of operating in it. This financing accelerates everything we are building toward. The partnership with Ozay Law Firm, simultaneously as an investor and our strategic legal partner in the region, brings a level of alignment that goes beyond capital alone. We are grateful to Yildiz and to Ozay for their conviction in this moment.”
