What it is
Hanzo is a platform for enterprise legal and compliance teams that need to preserve and review information from collaboration tools, websites, and social media. Its work can support audits, investigations, data subject access requests, and litigation. Chronicle captures website and social content, including interactive pages and authenticated journeys. Illuminate supports discovery across email and collaboration systems and can preserve data in place across Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Workspace, Jira, and Confluence. Spotlight AI interprets context, sentiment, and relationships, and records why it surfaced content. Hanzo connects to enterprise sources including Slack, Microsoft, Google, and Atlassian; listed data sources also include Asana, GitHub, internal SaaS tools, email, web, and social media. Customers can request one-time or ongoing collection and apply filters to limit overcollection; automated redaction is available. Chronicle retains data according to customer instructions, while Illuminate deletes it after a legal hold or compliance obligation is removed and keeps an audit record. Hanzo says stored customer information uses unique 256-bit encryption keys and reports SOC 2 Type 2 certification achieved in October 2019. Pricing is on request, and the company lists client support and domain support through implementation and adoption.
