AI innovator’s new solution AIceberg enables organizations to safely and securely unlock the power of generative AI
AIceberg, a leading innovator of AI Trust; safety, security, and compliance technology, announced $10 million in Seed funding and the launch of their AI trust platform that provides enterprise-grade security with real-time, automated validation of all AI application traffic, from speech and text to images and source code.
The financing, led by SYN Ventures and Sprout & Oak, further establishes the company’s leadership position in pioneering AI transparency and compliance for enterprise and public entities.
“Organizations adopting generative and agentic AI face critical challenges in ensuring safety, security, and compliance,” said Alex Schlager, CEO at AIceberg. “Additionally, many are operating with a false sense of security because while AI TRiSM solutions powered by LLMs seem convenient, using LLMs to safeguard LLMs introduces systemic risks and architectural limitations that undermine their effectiveness. We are closing the security gap with AIceberg. Purpose-built, non-generative models to detect risk signals support safe AI adoption, AIceberg works independently of AI applications, using the content of input and output to detect and eliminate risks and power safe, secure, compliant use of generative models and agentic workflows across the enterprise. We thank our customers and investors for their support as we enter our next phase of growth and continue to innovate to ensure security and safety.”

AIceberg unlocks the power of generative and agentic AI and eliminates the risks by working as an AI firewall and gateway that monitors user prompts and model/agent responses for risk signals and enforcing security and organizational policies. As a result, organizations can mitigate risks and adapt swiftly to emerging threats with real-time responses, agentic action controls, and customized security policies. Additionally, with AIceberg’s advanced threat detection, security posture is always up-to-date for the latest attack vectors with real-time detection and mitigation against AI cybersecurity threats such as data leaks and unauthorized access.
Key features and benefits include:
- Guardrails for safety: Ensure only use case relevant AI interactions are permitted to prevent unsanctioned, unsuitable, or illegal content, and ensure privacy and automatically redact personal and sensitive information
- Up-to-date security posture: Detect common AI cybersecurity attack vectors like prompt injection, prompt leaking, or jailbreaking, and perform sophisticated security analysis for agentic workflows
- Compliance, transparency, and auditability: Powered by explainable, non-generative AI models, gain maximum accuracy and auditable from beginning to end
- Enterprise observability across all AI interactions: Understand common prompts, objectives, and intentions to improve user experience and gain valuable business intelligence from communication mining of prompt/response pairings
“The public and private sectors are eager to gain a competitive advantage by integrating AI tools, but without appropriate guardrails in place, these efforts can open them to great risk,” said Jay Leek, Managing Partner and Co-founder at SYN Ventures. “AIceberg’s deep domain experience and unmatched technological capabilities have quickly positioned them as the industry leader in developing solutions to make safe AI systems. We are thrilled to invest in the team.”
“AIceberg has an exceptional leadership and research team with deep expertise in AI, cybersecurity, and enterprise risk management,” said MJ Ramachandran, Partner at Sprout & Oak. “We partnered with AIceberg from its earliest days, recognizing the urgent need for enterprises—especially in regulated industries—to adopt generative and agentic AI safely and transparently. Our decision to incubate and invest early was driven by AIceberg’s pioneering approach to AI security, compliance, and explainability. We’re excited to continue supporting their mission to make AI adoption both powerful and responsible.”
