Folta

Folta Inc. is a Japanese company specializing in AI security solutions, offering a secure browser extension that enables organizations to manage and monitor generative AI tool usage effectively. Founded in 2025 and headquartered in Japan, Folta develops innovative AI security services. The company has successfully completed a deal as of April 24, 2026, securing funding to enhance its offerings.

The founder's background in technology positions Folta to address current digital security challenges. Folta's core offering is its secure browser extension that integrates seamlessly with commonly used web browsers such as Chrome and Edge. This extension enables organizations to create a secure workspace by monitoring and controlling the use of generative AI tools, including popular services like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. By providing visibility into employee interactions with AI, Folta helps organizations enforce compliance with internal guidelines on data handling and prevent unauthorized information sharing.

The service is particularly beneficial for sectors that handle sensitive information, such as finance, healthcare, and manufacturing, and is implemented across various geographical markets, including Japan and other regions with a focus on advanced technology adoption. Folta’s solutions address the challenges of shadow AI usage, incident management, and operational compliance, ultimately facilitating a safer and more controlled digital environment for enterprises. Folta's revenue model is primarily based on subscription services for its secure browser extension, allowing businesses to implement the tool across their organizations on a per-user basis. This enables clients to manage and monitor generative AI usage without significant changes to their existing infrastructure.

Clients subscribe to Folta’s service, gaining access to features such as real-time monitoring, risk detection, and reporting capabilities. Given the critical nature of data security, organizations are likely to invest in Folta’s solutions to mitigate risks associated with AI usage while maintaining operational efficiency. Partnerships with enterprise clients across various industries further bolster Folta’s revenue stream, allowing for tailored support and enhanced compliance solutions. In April 2026, Folta raised an undisclosed amount in venture funding from new investor Dai Nippon Printing.

The company plans to utilize this funding to develop next-generation AI security services and expand its offerings, enabling organizations to safely adopt AI while enhancing operational efficiency. Future initiatives include expanding into new geographic regions, focusing on markets with a strong demand for AI security solutions.
