Onna

Onna Technologies, Inc. is a New York- and Barcelona-based software company that provides a Knowledge Integration Platform designed to help enterprises manage, search, and act on unstructured data from various workplace applications. The platform is used for eDiscovery, information governance, compliance, and AI data enablement, helping organizations unify fragmented data across tools like Slack, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Dropbox, and Zoom.

Onna was founded in 2015 by Salim Elkhou, who envisioned a platform that could break down data silos and make enterprise knowledge more accessible and actionable. The company has grown steadily, expanding its presence across North America and Europe, and serving a global customer base that includes major brands like Dropbox, Electronic Arts, Lyft, Carvana, and NewsCorp.

Onna has raised over $50 million in venture funding. Key investors include:

• Atomico
• Dawn Capital
• Dropbox
• Slack Fund

One of its most notable rounds was a $27 million Series B in 2020, which helped accelerate product development and market expansion.

Onna’s platform is built to centralize and standardize unstructured data from cloud-based tools. Key features include:

• eDiscovery: Streamlines legal processes like data collection, legal hold, and early case assessment.
• Information Governance: Helps manage compliance and risk through centralized data control.
• AI Data Pipeline (Beta): Connects enterprise data to large language models (LLMs) using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
• Data Archiving & Migration: Preserves and transfers data in a searchable, compliant format.
• Data Activity Monitoring: Tracks sensitive data usage to prevent misuse and ensure privacy.

In 2023, Onna was acquired by Reveal, a legal tech company focused on AI-powered eDiscovery. This acquisition is expected to enhance Onna’s capabilities in legal analytics and expand its reach in the legal tech ecosystem.

Onna continues to innovate with features like:

• Smart Actions: Automate tagging, flagging, and workflow triggers.
• Natural Language Search: Powered by LLMs like ChatGPT and Google PaLM 2.
• Custom Connectors and APIs: Allow integration with proprietary or niche tools.
• AI Data Pipeline: Enables secure, compliant use of generative AI on enterprise data.

Onna promotes a culture of transparency, innovation, and trust. It emphasizes:

• Ethical AI use: With published AI principles focused on fairness, privacy, and transparency.
• Remote and hybrid work: With teams distributed across the U.S. and Europe.
• Diversity and inclusion: Actively hiring across regions and backgrounds to build a global, inclusive team

Onna serves a diverse user base that includes:

• Legal teams: For eDiscovery and litigation readiness.
• Compliance officers: For regulatory and privacy management.
• IT and data teams: For data integration, migration, and AI enablement.

The company also supports a growing developer and partner community through its Platform API, Help Center, and Onna Community, where users can share feedback, access early features, and collaborate on best practices.
