7AI is a cybersecurity company that builds an agentic platform deploying swarms of autonomous AI agents to perform security operations work, including alert triage, incident investigation and threat hunting. The product is designed to automate the repetitive, high-volume tasks that overwhelm security operations center (SOC) analysts.
The company reports significant operational traction: within roughly ten months of launching from stealth, its agents processed more than 2.5 million alerts and completed over 650,000 security investigations, reducing investigation times from hours to minutes and eliminating an estimated 95 to 99 percent of false positives in its workflows.
7AI was founded in 2024 by Lior Div and Yonatan Striem-Amit, the former co-founder/CEO and co-founder/CTO respectively of cybersecurity company Cybereason, both with backgrounds in Israel's Unit 8200. Their prior experience scaling an endpoint-security company informs 7AI's enterprise go-to-market and technical approach.
The company launched from stealth in February 2025 and announced a $130 million Series A in December 2025 led by Index Ventures, with participation from new investor Blackstone Innovations Investments and existing seed backers Greylock, CRV and Spark. The company and press described it as the largest cybersecurity Series A on record, bringing total capital raised to $166 million.
7AI operates in the increasingly competitive agentic-security category, where multiple startups and incumbents are racing to automate SOC operations. Its differentiation rests on a multi-agent architecture and the founders' track record, positioning it to compete for enterprise security budgets as organizations look to reduce analyst burnout and accelerate response.
