Everpure Buys 1touch to Accelerate Secure GenAI and Agentic AI Deployment

1touch

Everpure has acquired 1touch to directly address one of enterprise AI’s most urgent barriers: making GenAI and Agentic AI secure enough for real-world, large-scale deployment.

The acquisition strategically expands Everpure’s platform beyond infrastructure performance into intelligent data governance, embedding security, visibility, and AI accountability at the core of enterprise data environments.

With the acquisition of 1touch, Everpure aims to strengthen its ability to help enterprises operationalize AI initiatives by integrating advanced data discovery, classification, and semantic intelligence into its platform.

The move positions Everpure to support organizations transitioning AI projects from pilot phases to full-scale production while ensuring governance and compliance.

1touch Serving Regulated Global Enterprises

1touch already serves some of the world’s most regulated industries, with clients including Cigna, American Express, BNP Paribas, AmerisourceBergen, Prudential Financial, and NatWest Group, among others.

These enterprises operate across financial services, insurance, healthcare, and government – sectors where data governance, privacy, and regulatory compliance are mission-critical.

By bringing 1touch into its ecosystem, Everpure expands its footprint in highly regulated environments, enabling enterprises to gain visibility and contextual intelligence across both legacy and cloud-based data systems.

Charles Giancarlo, CEO of Everpure, said: “With 1touch, we are taking the next step in helping organizations not only gain control of their most valuable asset – data – but also understand, enhance, and contextualize that data for actionable intelligence.”

Ashish Gupta, CEO and President of 1Touch.io, said: “Data is the lifeblood of the AI era, but without the proper controls and semantic context, it remains an untapped resource. By joining forces with Everpure, we can eliminate the barriers that have kept enterprises from realizing the true ROI of their data.

Together, we will further expand the Everpure platform to provide a level of contextual intelligence that is unmatched in the industry – giving customers the foundation they need to move AI projects from pilot to production at record speed and trust.”

The acquisition of 1touch is expected to enhance Everpure’s ability to embed semantic intelligence and governance directly into enterprise data workflows, enabling AI systems to operate in secure and compliant environments.
