What Polymer does

Polymer Solutions, Inc. (formerly Predict Data, Inc.) is a New York-based, venture-backed software company founded in 2020 that provides an AI-powered data loss prevention (DLP) and data security posture management (DSPM) platform focused on real-time protection of sensitive information across SaaS and AI ecosystems. The platform combines identity-aware detection and response, AI-driven data classification (natural language processing for unstructured text and computer vision for images and screenshots), and automated remediation to identify, classify, label, and control data exposure in tools including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Google Drive, Dropbox, Notion, ChatGPT, and Claude. Modular product extensions include SecureRAG (a security gateway for LLM/RAG deployments), Human Risk Management (behavioral coaching and nudges), and AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM) for securing the AI/ML lifecycle.

The company sells primarily to enterprise customers in healthcare and financial services/insurance verticals, with named logos including RSA Security, ClickUp, Routefusion, Signify Health, Medly, and Edward Jones. Pricing is quote-based with a "Request a demo" sales motion targeting CISOs, CTOs, and security teams; revenue is generated through SaaS subscriptions. Polymer is SOC 2 Type II certified and supports compliance frameworks including HIPAA, CCPA, and GDPR. Distribution is enterprise field sales complemented by a Google Cloud Marketplace listing for cloud-procured deployment. Leadership consists of co-founder and CEO Yasir Ali and CTO Usman Malik; the company has raised approximately $9.96M in total disclosed funding across rounds from 2020 through 2024, led at the seed stage by Story Ventures.

Core offering

Polymer provides an AI-powered data loss prevention (DLP) and data security posture management (DSPM) platform that identifies, classifies, and protects sensitive information across SaaS and AI workflows in real time. The platform combines identity-aware detection, NLP-based classification, automated remediation, human risk management, and AI security posture management (AI-SPM) into a unified SaaS solution for enterprise security teams.

Product overview

Polymer is a unified data security platform combining DLP (Data Loss Prevention), DSPM (Data Security Posture Management), and AI-specific security capabilities. The core Polymer DLP/DSPM product provides runtime data protection across AI and SaaS ecosystems, while modular components including SecureRAG (for AI/LLM security), Human Risk Management (for employee training), and AI-SPM (for AI lifecycle security) extend functionality. The platform uses AI-powered classification, identity-aware detection, automated remediation, and behavioral coaching to protect sensitive data from both human and AI agent threats.

Direct peers

• Cyberhaven: Cyberhaven provides an AI-era data security and insider risk management platform that traces data lineage across SaaS, endpoints, and AI tools. Most direct competitor to Polymer's identity-aware DLP and behavioral risk approach.
• Nightfall AI: Nightfall AI is an AI-native DLP platform focused on detecting sensitive data across SaaS applications, email, and gen-AI tools like ChatGPT. Closely comparable in target customer (enterprise security teams), AI-first architecture, and emphasis on SaaS/AI data protection.
• Securiti: Securiti offers a unified data security, privacy, and governance platform spanning DSPM, DLP, and AI governance. Directly comparable product breadth (DSPM + AI controls) and similar enterprise buyer focus on compliance (GDPR, CCPA) and AI risk.
• Sentra: Sentra is a cloud-native DSPM platform that discovers, classifies, and secures sensitive data across cloud and SaaS environments. Closely comparable on the DSPM side of Polymer's positioning, with growing overlap into AI data security.

Broad incumbents

• Microsoft Purview DLP: Microsoft Purview bundles DLP, DSPM, and information protection across Microsoft 365, Azure, and Copilot. Largest incumbent by footprint; competes on price via bundling and is rapidly adding AI-aware DLP features that overlap directly with Polymer.
• Netskope: Netskope is a SASE leader offering CASB, DLP, and inline data protection for SaaS and web traffic. Comparable overlap with Polymer on SaaS DLP and cloud data security posture management for enterprise customers.
• Zscaler: Zscaler offers cloud-native Zscaler DLP and Posture Control as part of its Zero Trust platform, providing inline data protection across SaaS, cloud, and AI applications. Comparable on enterprise DLP and SaaS data governance buyer.
• Palo Alto Networks (Prisma & Cortex DLP): Palo Alto Networks offers enterprise DLP through Prisma SaaS and Cortex platforms with broad AI/ML-based classification. Competes for the same enterprise CISO budget that Polymer targets, with broader security platform leverage.
• Symantec DLP (Broadcom): Symantec DLP (now Broadcom) is a long-established enterprise DLP suite. Highly comparable on DLP use case and enterprise customer base, though typically deployed on-premises and less differentiated on AI/SaaS coverage.
• Forcepoint: Forcepoint provides enterprise DLP and risk-adaptive data protection across endpoints, cloud, and networks. Comparable on regulated-vertical (financial services, healthcare) focus and behavioral risk scoring, though more legacy positioning.
