AegisAI
Agentic AI email security that stops AI-crafted spear phishing before the inbox.
About
AegisAI is an AI-native email security company founded in 2025 by former Google Safe Browsing and reCAPTCHA leaders Cy Khormaee and Ryan Luo. Instead of signatures, it deploys autonomous AI agents that analyze the intent, context and identity behind each message in real time, with its Vanguard agent following suspicious links and attachments across the open web to defeat adversarial CAPTCHAs and cloaked pages. It raised $49M total ($36M Series A led by Battery Ventures, July 2026) and counts Mesh, LangChain and Lokker as customers. Deployment is MX-free via Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 APIs in about five minutes. The company claims 90% fewer false positives; the deeper technical detail behind its proprietary LLMs is not public.
