Startup program
Security from the first release
Prava AI for early-stage companies, with support shaped around your stage. Benefits are custom and agreed with each startup on application.
Who it is for
Early teams with real exposure
The program is for startups that handle customer data, ship software to others, or are preparing for their first security reviews.
Small teams carry the same attack surface as larger ones, with fewer people to watch it. The program gives early-stage companies a practical way to put endpoint protection, monitoring, attack-surface discovery and threat intelligence in place before an incident or a customer questionnaire forces the issue.
The guidelines below are indicative, not hard rules. We read every application and consider companies that fall outside them when the fit is clear.
Stage
Early stage
Typically pre-seed to Series A, or a comparable stage for bootstrapped and grant-funded companies.
Team
Small team
Usually a team that fits within the user limits of the Pro or Max plan, with a named person responsible for security.
Use
New to Prava AI
Generally companies that are not yet paying customers, with a genuine intent to run Prava AI in production.
What you can receive
Support shaped to your stage
Each startup receives a different mix. The exact terms are agreed case by case and confirmed in writing before anything starts.
Plans
Discounted plans
Reduced pricing on a Prava AI plan for an agreed term. The level and duration depend on your stage and needs. See pricing for standard plans.
Onboarding
Guided onboarding
A walkthrough of deployment, agent roll-out and alert routing, so the platform is useful from the first week rather than the first quarter.
Baseline
Security baseline review
A review of your external exposure, cloud configuration and identity set-up, with a short list of the changes that reduce the most risk first.
Compliance
Readiness help
Help preparing the controls, policies and evidence you will need for your own SOC 2 or ISO 27001 audit. The audit itself is carried out by an independent auditor you appoint.
Access
Founder office hours
Scheduled time with our security team to talk through architecture decisions, customer security questionnaires and incident preparedness.
Partners
Accelerator and VC route
Accelerators, incubators and investors can refer companies from their portfolio. Write to us to discuss a referral arrangement.

FAQ
Common questions
Is there a fixed discount or credit amount?
No. Benefits are agreed with each startup on application, based on stage, team size and needs. We confirm the exact terms in writing before you start.
Do we have to meet every eligibility guideline?
No. The guidelines are indicative. If you fall outside them but think the program fits, apply and explain why.
Will this make us SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certified?
No. We help you prepare for your own audit. Certification or attestation comes only from an independent auditor. Prava AI itself holds no certifications yet; see compliance for how the platform is designed to align with common frameworks.
Where is our data stored?
Customer data is stored and processed only in data centres in your own region, the same as for every Prava AI customer.
What happens at the end of the term?
We review the arrangement with you. You can move to a standard plan, change plan or leave. Billing on standard plans is monthly, with no annual lock-in.
Can an accelerator or investor apply on our behalf?
They can refer you, and we are happy to hear from programme managers directly. The application itself should come from the startup.
