We do it by deploying cost-efficient AI agents that discover, test and remediate vulnerabilities across enterprise environments.

With teams across New York, San Diego, Paris, and Amsterdam, we already won 100+ customers and raised $26M in funding from top investors including Balderton Capital, Uncorrelated Ventures and YCombinator.
