7AI Launches With $36 Million in Seed Funding for Agentic Security Platform

7AI has launched an agentic security platform, which uses AI agents to handle repetitive tasks.

7AI on Wednesday announced the launch of an agentic security platform, which leverages AI agents to automate repetitive tasks that consume significant security team resources

The Boston, Mass-based company says its specialized AI agents are designed to take over essential ‘non-human work’, such as enriching signals, triaging alerts, searching for known threats, and correlating telemetry. 

According to 7AI, its autonomous ‘swarming agents’ can categorize threat alerts (whether they are cloud, email, identity, or EDR threats) and then dispatches the appropriate agents.

The agents are capable of investigating relevant components using data from multiple sources within the enterprise environment. 

The platform also provides actionable conclusions — based on the customer’s specific policies and other factors — for analysts, playbooks or ticketing systems.

7AI was established in 2024 by Cybereason founders Lior Div and Yonatan Striem-Amit. The company has raised $36 million in seed funding from Greylock Partners, Spark Capital, and CRV.

The security firm says its solution is already used in production by dozens of organizations. 

“Our mission isn’t to make people more efficient at non-human work—it’s to give tedious but necessary tasks to AI agents that are faster, more consistent, and infinitely scalable,” said Div, the CEO of 7AI. “By offloading these essential tasks, 7AI empowers security teams to focus on high-value priorities that move the needle and improve their overall security.”
