Why We Built Qwari
After a decade of helping companies struggle through manual compliance processes, we saw the same pattern repeat: regulatory requirements were evolving faster than compliance teams could adapt. The FDA June 2025 cybersecurity guidance, EU AI Act enforcement, and DORA requirements created an unprecedented demand for continuous compliance—not just annual audits.
Traditional tools focused on frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO 27001, but nothing existed to automate the domain-specific, technical evidence collection that regulators now demand. SBOM generation, AI model lineage tracking, incident-to-disclosure workflows—these weren't nice-to-haves anymore. They were table stakes.
We founded Qwari to bridge this gap. By combining Jake's deep understanding of regulatory requirements with Luke's expertise in AI-powered automation, we built the platform we wished existed: one that connects to your existing systems, automatically collects evidence, and generates submission-ready compliance packs for the regulations that matter most.
Our mission: Make continuous compliance effortless so regulated companies can focus on innovation, not paperwork.
