Protostars is using AI to reinvent compliance for cybersecurity laws like the EU CRA and NIS2. Ahead of the Interceltic Business Forum, we spoke with the team about their mission, challenges, and what’s next.
Compliance is no longer just a checklist — it’s a strategic priority for businesses across Europe and beyond. That’s where Protostars comes in. Led by a team building full-stack AI for audit and compliance, the startup is rethinking how companies meet new cybersecurity laws like the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act.
We spoke with the Protostars team ahead of their participation in the Interceltic Business Forum this August in Lorient, where they’ll join other promising ventures tackling global challenges with Celtic-rooted solutions.
Protostars is building full stack AI for audit and compliance to help companies comply with fast-evolving cybersecurity laws like the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and NIS2.
We develop multimodal AI that streamlines compliance by eliminating control overlap, reducing audit redundancy, and enabling continuous, evidence-based assurance.
What makes us different?
We’re not just using AI to tick check boxes — we’re embedding security into software workflows and building a compliance architecture that works with developers, auditors, and CISOs alike. Think: less paperwork, more protection at scale.
Traditional software security audit reporting is time-consuming, costly, and prone to error. Consumers in digital markets globally benefit most from safe and secure products — and we help ensure that’s what they get.
Cybersecurity crosses borders, and the Interceltic Business Forum is at its best when it brings community and commerce together.
For us, it’s a chance to develop commercially-driven case studies and ensure that members are trading only with software that carries the CE mark — a signal of trust and compliance.
Fundraising remains critical to help us bridge long enterprise sales cycles.
We’re also laser-focused on achieving the compliance credentials needed to meet due diligence requirements from large enterprise customers.
Protostars is part of a new wave of Celtic startups pushing the frontier of AI, cybersecurity, and compliance — not just for efficiency, but for global trust.
On August 4th in Lorient, the Interceltic Business Forum to showcase their approach and explore opportunities for international expansion, collaboration, and growth.
🎟️ Join us in Lorient to meet the people building the future — securely.
