Cosa fa Arden

Arden is the AI-native platform for internal audit and SOX teams. We build AI agents that automatically pull evidence from your stack, test controls end-to-end, and produce audit-ready workpapers in minutes instead of weeks. Internal audit is a massive but underserved market. Every public company in the US is required to do SOX testing, yet teams still run it through spreadsheets and screenshots. Arden is the engine that does this work.

AI agents that automate SOX control testing

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building an AI-native platform that automates internal audit and SOX control testing for US public companies. Our AI agents pull evidence directly from a company's IT stack, run control tests end-to-end, and produce audit-ready workpapers in minutes instead of weeks. This eliminates manual spreadsheet work and screenshots that audit teams currently rely on.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in San Francisco, CA, and the company will be based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where both of us live and where the concentration of enterprise SaaS and AI companies is. It's also where we can access experienced early users in finance and accounting and where YC itself is based.
