Episode Synopsis

In this episode of UnF*ck My Startup, we sit down with Pukar Hamal, the founder of SecurityPal, who has defied the conventional VC playbook. Pukar shares the story of his last startup, where a mind-numbing 200-question security questionnaire almost killed a game-changing deal. That frustration led him to create SecurityPal, a company that literally does the work for you by having a team of 250 experts and AI to complete these questionnaires. He raised a $20M seed round from one of the best firms in the world and then did what every VC fears most: he became profitable.SecurityPal offers a free trust center at freetrustcenter.com to help companies communicate their security posture easily and deflect questionnaires.Links:Security PAL: https://www.securitypalhq.com/Pukar Hamal's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pukarhamal/ Adam Robinson's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/retentionadam/Find out morehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/retentionadam/https://www.youtube.com/@retentionadamhttps://www.rb2b.com/
