The founding team combines experience in audit leadership with expertise in scaling AI platforms and enterprise systems. Co-founders include Snir Kodesh, a two-time founder who sold his first company to Lyft and previously led engineering at Retool and Lyft; Eliot Walker, former CTO of Lyft's fleet division with experience at Amazon; Andrew Li, a seasoned engineer from Lyft and Augmedix; and David Coulombe, the former VP of Internal Audit at Lyft. The team's background blends audit, applied machine learning, and scalable systems development to address what they identify as an overlooked area in enterprise technology.
The platform integrates into existing workflows and can be deployed as a SaaS or self-hosted solution to ensure data control. It operates with zero-data retention policies for its AI models and is SOC 2 Type II certified. The service is built for both enterprises and professional firms, aiming to reduce manual work and allow teams to focus on strategic risk management. Petual's system can analyze entire data populations, automate evidence annotation, and identify deviations proactively.
