About Ethena

We’re a team of builders, writers, and problem-solvers who think running a compliance program shouldn’t feel like a scramble. So we build AI agents for ethics and compliance teams that handle the busywork and give your team its time back.

Let’s talk

Compliance teams deserve better than stitched-together tools

Ethena brings training, policies, disclosures, and hotline into one platform of AI agents, purpose built for those who own compliance.

The agents handle the administration: reviewing disclosures, spotting policy gaps, updating training from your real risk signals. You stay in the loop for every judgment call. The agents draft. You decide.

Our story

Roxanne Petraeus, an Army veteran, and Anne Solmssen, an engineer, started Ethena in 2019 because they’d both sat through the same tired training and figured a compliance team’s time was worth more than that.

Training was the start. Today, Ethena is a platform of AI compliance agents. They customize training to your real risk signals and policies, summarize hotline cases so investigations move faster, and flag policy gaps and disclosure conflicts for your review. An analytics layer underpins it all and shows your whole program in one place.

What we hold ourselves to

Building a product compliance leaders can trust starts with a team that works the same way.

Play to win

We hire people who are good at what they do, and expect them to chase greatness. We compete together, win as a team, and are not satisfied with second place.

Embrace feedback

We embrace every part of feedback: giving, receiving, and soliciting. We give it directly, but with kindness and tact. We receive it eagerly, but without forgoing curiosity and contextualization. We solicit constantly and with examples of vulnerability. Because we’re at our best when we’re all trying to be better.

Do our training proud

We live the values our training teaches. We work with empathy, learn from our mistakes, and prioritize personal and organizational health as we grow. Importantly, we work as hard on our organization as we do on our product in order to create a space that models the behavior we hope to see in others.

Humor is human

We spend a third of our days at work. That time shouldn’t be miserable. Tell a joke in a meeting, send that funny gif. We take our work seriously, not ourselves.
