Welcome to GRC 2.0
We Built Joonbi Because Compliance Isn’t Working
Too many frameworks. Too much duplication. Not enough clarity. Compliance has become a system of spreadsheets instead of a system of truth. We are building Joonbi to change that, focusing on what actually matters.
Our Point of View
Disruption is now required.
Over time, compliance became fragmented, built around frameworks, audits, and certifications instead of the actual obligations organizations are required to meet.
The result is duplication, inefficiency, and a false sense of security. The same requirements are implemented multiple times across different frameworks. Ownership becomes unclear. Evidence is recreated instead of reused. And when scrutiny comes, organizations are left stitching together proof.
Compliance shouldn’t work this way.
It should be structured, transparent, and built on what actually matters, your obligations, your operations, and your ability to prove it.
Key Tenants of GRC 2.0
- Compliance should be built on obligations, not frameworks
- Evidence should be reusable, not recreated
- Ownership should be clear, accountable, and enforced
- Compliance should be continuous, not event-driven
- Defensibility matters more than certification
About
Get to know Joonbi
Joonbi is a native AI Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) platform that transforms how organizations operationalize regulatory requirements. Built on an obligation-level architecture, Joonbi decomposes complex laws and frameworks into unified, reusable requirements, eliminating redundancy and aligning compliance to real-world operations.
Unlike traditional GRC tools that prioritize audits and certifications, Joonbi enables capability-calibrated compliance where legal obligations, risk capacity, and governance execution are continuously aligned. The result is a rationalized, transparent, and defensible compliance posture, designed to scale with the organization and stand up to real-world examination.
A New Foundation for Compliance
Joonbi replaces fragmented, framework-driven GRC with a rationalized, obligation-based system of record. By decomposing hundreds of frameworks into a single set of non-redundant obligations, Joonbi eliminates up to 60% of compliance work before automation begins.
The platform produces a unified compliance architecture where one control, one owner, and one evidence set satisfies every applicable framework. With AI-driven guidance, real-time traceability, and continuous monitoring, organizations gain complete visibility into their obligations and a compliance posture that is efficient, accountable, and defensible under audit, regulatory examination, or insurance review.
It is time, now.
- Regulatory complexity is accelerating, driven by cybersecurity mandates, AI governance requirements, and expanding oversight across industries.
- At the same time, organizations are being asked to prove more, with less tolerance for ambiguity and less time to respond.
- The traditional model of compliance cannot keep up.
- Joonbi was built for this moment, providing a system that simplifies complexity, scales with change, and delivers clarity where it matters most.
Leadership
Jane Hein
Founder & CEO
Jane Hein brings more than 20 years of experience at the intersection of compliance, risk, and technology. She has led organizations through complex audits, large-scale system modernization, and regulatory recoveries in banking, insurance, healthcare, and education. She is often called on to stabilize critical programs facing deadlines, scrutiny, or operational risk.
While performing these roles, Jane developed a methodology to help organizations not only achieve compliance but sustain it. This approach – originally built using complex databases that required deep domain expertise – reduced redundancy, eliminated inefficiencies, and delivered measurable savings in the compliance management process. With the rise of AI, Jane saw an opportunity to leverage this methodology into a streamlined, repeatable process, laying the foundation for Joonbi.
The company’s name comes from Taekwondo, where “Joonbi” means the ready stance: not passive, not combative, but prepared. That stance reflects Jane’s belief that compliance should be practiced as confident readiness, not as a series of reactionary activities.
Jane holds the CISSP, CSPO, and CSM designations, and is recognized for making complex regulations clear and actionable. She focuses on building resilient teams and advancing compliance as a discipline that strengthens daily operations and drives long-term business performance.
