Clover Security Raises $36 Million to Secure Software by Design

The cybersecurity startup embeds AI agents into widely used tools to identify design flaws and eliminate them early.

Funding

Cybersecurity startup Clover Security on Tuesday emerged from stealth mode with $36 million in seed and Series A funding from Notable Capital, Team8, and SVCI.

Founded in 2024, the Tel Aviv-based company aims to provide ‘design-led product security’ through AI agents that can identify vulnerabilities before code is committed.

Relying on AI agents embedded in popular tools, including Confluence, Cursor, GitHub, Jira, and Slack, Clover detects design flaws and helps address them early.

The AI agents, the company says, replicate the thinking of security engineers, anticipate where security defects appear, and apply security principles during the design phase.

Clover says its agents can provide security insights in real time, suggest secure patterns, and automate reviews of all code changes.

By identifying drifts before production, the company helps build software that is secure-by-design and accelerates delivery.

The company says its solution is already used by dozens of entities across the banking, fintech, and technology sectors, including Fortune 500 companies.

Clover, which is also backed by several angel investors, will use the new funding to expand product and go-to-market teams.

In the current AI-native development environment, “teams are moving faster and building more than ever. Security teams are left alone to manage unprecedented complexity. Clover changes that by helping product security teams scale by working where products start, in design,” Clover co-founder and CEO Alon Kollmann said.
