Pluto Security Raises $42M to Protect Corporate AI Without Blocking Innovation
AI security startup Pluto Security emerged from stealth on October 13, 2026, announcing it has raised $42 million for its security solution aimed at enterprise AI tools. According to the company's blog, its product is designed to provide complete enterprise-grade security for employees using AI agents, coding tools, browser extensions, and more—without hindering innovation or blocking access to tools.
Co-founder and CEO Shahar Bahat said in the blog post that Pluto currently protects over 1.5 million endpoints for enterprise customers worldwide, spanning multiple industries, including several Fortune 500 companies. Even some of the world's leading AI companies trust it to protect their own AI environments, he added. The company has reached millions of dollars in annual recurring revenue (ARR), he noted.
Early investor TLV Partners said on LinkedIn that it has supported the Pluto team since the early stages and witnessed it build a customer base of more than 40 enterprises in less than a year. TLV believes Pluto is building the security layer for the AI workspace, enabling enterprises to embrace AI innovation without sacrificing security. Jump Capital also posted about the investment on LinkedIn.
