About Lanai

Lanai is building the Enterprise AI Navigation System to solve one of today's most critical challenges: Enterprises can't see, protect, or scale their AI usage. Unlike traditional tools that rely on static APIs or manual configurations, our AI Empowerment Platform dynamically discovers every human-AI interaction, protects sensitive data, and transforms scattered experiments into systematic success.

At Lanai, we're not just building software; we're crafting a culture of excellence and innovation. Our values shape our work:

  • Curiosity: We continuously learn, question, and share knowledge.

  • Community: We embrace diversity and unite in purpose.

  • Clarity: We communicate openly and make decisions efficiently.

We move fast, prioritize delivering true customer value, and strive to earn and maintain trust with the people we serve and each other. As part of Lanai’s founding team, you'll embody these values and help shape the future of work in the AI era.
