Ryft, founded in 2024, raised $8 million before the acquisition and has built infrastructure for managing data workflows in AI environments.</p> <p>The timing is not coincidental. As enterprises move to deploy large language models across their data estates, they discover a cascading governance problem: models require access to sensitive data, but access without guardrails creates compliance risk and litigation exposure. Data governance software becomes a regulatory tax on AI adoption. Whoever builds the most efficient tax collection apparatus will own the market.</p>
