About

AI is moving faster than compliance. We're fixing that.

Every financial services firm is adopting AI. Most are doing it without their compliance team knowing. ShieldAI gives compliance officers the tools to say "yes" safely — not just "no" slowly.

The problem we're solving

In 2024, employees at financial services firms started using ChatGPT, Copilot, and dozens of other AI tools — often without telling anyone. Analysts pasted deal memos into LLMs. Associates uploaded client financials to AI summarizers. Portfolio managers used AI research tools connected to material nonpublic information.

Compliance teams had no visibility. The tools they had — spreadsheets, email threads, quarterly vendor reviews — were built for a world where new software deployments happened quarterly, not hourly.

The SEC named AI governance a 2026 examination priority for registered firms. FINRA issued guidance on AI supervision obligations. The EU AI Act created new compliance requirements for high-risk AI systems. And most firms were still managing AI approvals in shared Google Sheets.

ShieldAI replaces that spreadsheet with an automated, auditable platform built specifically for financial services compliance teams.

Principles

What we believe

Compliance-First Design

Every feature we build starts with the question: will this stand up to a regulatory examination? We don't ship governance theater — we ship controls that actually protect firms.

Simple Pricing, No Gotchas

Financial software vendors love per-seat pricing that punishes growth. We don't. Unlimited users on every plan. Your compliance team shouldn't need a budget negotiation to add a reviewer.

Built for the People Who Get Blamed

When an analyst pastes deal data into ChatGPT, it's the CCO who gets the call from the SEC. We build for the people whose jobs depend on having the right controls in place.

Part of the Arcline platform

ShieldAI is built by Nolan Ventures, a vertical SaaS studio focused on compliance-heavy industries. Our products share a common platform — battle-tested authentication, billing, document generation, and audit infrastructure — so we can move fast without cutting corners on security.

We build the software that regulated industries actually need: purpose-built, affordable, and designed for the people who use it in the field. No enterprise sales cycles. No $200/user/month seat pricing. Just tools that work.
