RiskPal

What RiskPal does

RiskPal is a UK-based SaaS company headquartered in Woodbridge that provides a cloud-based platform for digital risk assessments, primarily serving organizations with personnel operating in high-risk, hostile, or unfamiliar environments. The platform addresses fragmented, spreadsheet-based risk assessment workflows by offering configurable templates, approval workflows, collaborative editing, analytics, and an integrated Safety Advice Suite — supported by AI-assisted knowledge retrieval, generative content drafting, and process automation, all positioned within a human-in-the-loop model. Customers span media and broadcast (ITN, News UK, The Telegraph, ITV News, Channel 5, The Washington Post), NGOs and humanitarian organizations (ACLED, EBU, IREX, Born Free, CPJ), higher education (NFTS), and corporate travel-risk functions.

The company operates a hybrid SaaS-plus-services revenue model, combining subscription access to the platform with professional consulting, retained risk management support, and training services. Pricing is quote-based with annual billing, and the go-to-market combines enterprise field sales (a "Book a Demo" motion) with self-service onboarding and trial access. Partnerships with WorldAware (global intelligence feeds) and Hotspot Cover (travel insurance) embed RiskPal into adjacent safety workflows. The company holds ISO 27001:2022 and Cyber Essentials certifications, supporting procurement by security-sensitive enterprise and public-sector-adjacent buyers.

Founded around 2020 by Colin Pereira and David Holley — both with 20+ years of frontline risk management experience — RiskPal remains privately held, founder-led, and bootstrapped, with no disclosed institutional funding and a headcount of 1–10. Operational scope is stated as Europe, EMEA, and global, though revenue concentration is likely anchored in the UK and Western European media and NGO markets.
