The AIceberg team is proud to announce seed funding to transform AI from a business risk to a competitive advantage.
“Organizations adopting generative and agentic AI face critical challenges in ensuring safety, security, and compliance. Additionally, many are operating with a false sense of security. 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 are used to detect risk signals and support safe AI adoption. AIceberg works independently of AI applications, using the content of input and output to detect and eliminate risks. Our AI Trust Platform powers safe, secure, and 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 AI security and safety.”
- Alex Schlager, CEO at AIceberg
The financing, led by SYN Ventures and Sprout & Oak, further establishes our leadership position in pioneering AI transparency and compliance for enterprise and public entities.
