TrustWorks — Pre-seed

Before its 2021 seed, the company (then QueryLayer, founded in Valencia in 2020 by Padraig O'Leary and Krzysztof Szypillo) raised a pre-seed round from Seedcamp and Pipedrive co-founder Martin Henk, used to build the platform during 2020 alongside privacy and security executives at scale-ups. The round was never announced on its own: it is only referenced retroactively in the December 2021 seed coverage, so no announcement date or amount is public and neither Crunchbase, CB Insights nor Tracxn lists it as a separate round.
