6clicks was founded in mid-2019 in Melbourne, Australia, by Anthony Stevens (ex-KPMG partner), Louis Strauss, and Andrew Robinson. The company raised $5 million in early 2021 with backing from former PwC CEO Luke Sayers, followed by a $10 million Series A and a subsequent $15.8 million raise to fund expansion of its AI engine, Hailey. In 2025–2026, 6clicks secured a $20 million strategic investment to accelerate sovereign AI and GRC deployment across the Middle East and government sectors.
6clicks provides risk management, compliance management, vendor/third-party risk, policy management, audit management, and incident management in a single platform. Its Hailey AI engine automates control mapping, gap analysis, questionnaire completion, and framework harmonization across ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST, GDPR, Essential 8, and dozens more.
6clicks differentiates through its advisor-centric hub-and-spoke architecture, which allows consulting firms and MSSPs to manage compliance programs for multiple clients from a single console — a model uncommon among GRC vendors. This makes it especially popular with advisory firms and government contractors.
Best fit: Compliance consultancies, MSSPs, government agencies, and mid-market companies that manage multiple entities or clients and need a cost-effective AI-driven GRC platform.
Hands-on review pending.
