Port Louis

What Port Louis does

Port Louis is a Brazilian technology company founded in 2004 and headquartered in São Paulo that develops AI-powered automation solutions for legal and regulatory audits. Its core product, PortData (also branded PortData.tech), is a SaaS platform that integrates with Brazilian courts and issuer databases nationwide to perform automated searches of individuals, legal entities, and real estate properties, structure data rooms automatically, and generate customizable risk reports. The platform's proprietary in-house algorithms execute routine and repetitive legal tasks and can interact with existing client system interfaces without requiring additional development, reducing due diligence timelines from weeks to days.

The technology stack combines natural language processing for document capture and reading, process automation for legal audit workflows, anomaly detection for risk alerts (including CNPJ monitoring with Federal, State, and Municipal Revenue authorities), and knowledge retrieval for legal research. The company is LGPD-compliant, with privacy practices formalized effective December 2024. Port Louis maintains a strategic partnership with Ibradim (Brazilian Institute of Real Estate Law), embedding PortData into the institutional ecosystem of Brazilian real estate legal practitioners.

Port Louis operates a B2B SaaS business model with recurring subscription revenue on a quote-based pricing structure (no public tiers disclosed). The company sells primarily through direct enterprise field sales and partnership-led demand generation, targeting law firms, real estate developers and incorporadoras, financial market participants (FIIs and investment funds), and corporate enterprises in sectors including agro, retail, pharmaceutical, telecommunications, and energy. It serves more than 300 clients and is privately held, founder-owned and operated by co-founders Eduardo Noronha (CEO) and Renata Soares (CSO), with partners Adroaldo Frantz (CTO) and Erica Saito (Market Development Director), and has not raised institutional capital.
