Octo Legal

What Octo Legal does

Octo Legal (legally Octo, Inc., incorporated in the US and operationally headquartered in Curitiba, Brazil) is a SaaS provider of Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) software founded in 2020. Its core product is a web-based platform that centralizes compliance documentation, risk assessment via a visual Matriz de Riscos, customizable policies, controls, and action plans, supporting frameworks including the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD), ISO, NIST, and OEA. The platform is built around no-code customization so customers can adapt workflows, fields, and structures to their own compliance programs without developer involvement.

The company serves three distinct segments through tiered subscriptions: small and mid-sized companies with up to 50 employees running single GRC projects internally (Gestão plan), compliance consultants managing multiple client engagements (Consultor plan), and large enterprises needing a full GRC platform (Enterprise plan). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the lower tiers operate on monthly subscriptions with self-serve sign-up, while the Enterprise tier is sold via a consultative, quote-based process with multi-year contracts.

Go-to-market is product-led for SMB users, with the company website as the primary acquisition channel and WhatsApp Business integration for direct sales conversations. Distribution is single-country (Brazil), with no disclosed international customers despite US incorporation. The company has 1-10 employees and has registered one funding event in May 2023 with Bossa Invest, indicating an early-stage profile with limited public financial disclosures.
