## About

Based in New York, US, and founded in 2023, Kobalt Labs, Inc. operates as an information technology company that offers SaaS-based solutions for FinTechs and banks. The company was founded by its CEO, Kalyani Ramadurgam, and CTO, Ashi Agrawal.

In December 2025, Kobalt Labs, Inc. raised USD 11 million in series A funding from First Harmonic, Alloy Labs, Y Combinator, and other unspecified investors also participated in the round.

Kobalt Labs offers Kobalt AI, which is an artificial intelligence-based copilot that allows FinTechs and banks to automate manual research tasks associated with risk management, specifically third-party vendor management. The firm’s product, Kobalt AI, functions as a risk co-pilot, which allows users to upload and connect internal policies, past compliance assessments, and vendor contracts into the Kobalt Vault. The company’s platform then surfaces and triages risks based on this data and external regulations, identifying conflicts such as clauses in new vendor contracts that contradict internal policies or recent laws.
