Probo

Probo is an open-source compliance management platform founded by compliance and security professionals Antoine Bouchardy (CEO) and Bryan Frimin (CTO), both experienced ISO 27001 auditors. The company likely started operations in 2023 or 2024, with its foundation rooted in regulatory standards and audit-readiness expertise. Probo operates independently with no identified parent company or subsidiaries, focusing exclusively on their single product and related compliance services.

The platform is designed to help startups and modern technical teams streamline compliance workflows by providing an accessible and transparent alternative to proprietary and inflexible models. Probo offers a freemium business model wherein the core platform is freely available as a self-hosted open-source solution. Additionally, it provides paid "white-glove" managed services, including audit coordination and expert support to minimize internal burden. The company emphasizes rapid audit readiness, community-driven development, and customizable, risk-based compliance programs suitable for markets such as SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and enterprise IT.

Though Probo's headquarters location has not been publicly disclosed, co-founder details suggest presence in the US and EU regions. The company currently has a small, likely 2–10 member team and does not maintain formal social media profiles or have external funding, continuing on a bootstrap model. Probo’s offerings include support for multiple certifications like SOC2, GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO standards, with integrations to various industry-standard tools to facilitate compliance automation and documentation.
