Opsin raises $21M to track enterprise AI agents and flag risky behavior
Opsin, an AI security and governance startup, announced Thursday that it raised $21 million in a funding round led by SYN Ventures and Race Capital. The roughly 20-person startup will use the fresh capital to expand its sales and engineering teams.
Key points
- Opsin raised $21 million in a round led by SYN Ventures and Race Capital.
- The startup monitors corporate AI agents, mapping their data access and flagging risky activity.
- Capital from the round will go toward growing Opsin's sales and engineering teams.
Founded by MIT alumnus James Pham and Oz Wasserman, who both previously worked at Abnormal Security, Opsin focuses on monitoring autonomous AI agents across workplace systems. The platform tracks where agents are active, maps the data and tools they can reach, and monitors their behavior to flag potential risks, such as accidentally exposing confidential files.
The investment comes as non-technical employees increasingly deploy agents powered by providers like OpenAI and Microsoft. Opsin aims to help enterprises manage software like ChatGPT Enterprise and Microsoft Copilot safely, as investors and security firms warn that sprawling agent deployments expand potential attack surfaces.
