TouchBrick

TouchBrick, based in Tampa, Florida, builds an AI-powered data protection platform for enterprises. Its zero-trust "Privacy Sentinel" scans an organisation's databases, data lakes and cloud storage to identify sensitive information, then extracts and tokenises it using AI-generated synthetic data so systems keep working while real personal and financial data is kept out of harm's way.

TouchBrick was co-founded by Jason Melo (CTO), a serial entrepreneur who previously founded crypto exchange Paxos and tax technology company Exactera, and Shayra Antia (CEO). The platform helps enterprises in regulated sectors such as finance and healthcare meet compliance requirements including GDPR, CCPA and HIPAA while training AI and machine learning models on their own data.
