About MontroAI tools are the new shadow IT. 26 of the top 50 shadow apps discovered in 2025 are AI tools. 70% of ChatGPT users hide their usage from their employer.

We help European IT and security teams discover, control, and comply across every SaaS app and AI tool in their organisation — before regulators or auditors do it for them.Purpose-built in Dublin. Not retrofitted from a US tool. Not bolted onto a legacy platform.We're at an exciting stage — product in build, first design partners coming on board, and a market that's wide open.
