In less than a year, Pluto has reached multi-million-dollar ARR, secured more than 1 million endpoints, and built a customer base of more than 40 enterprises, including multiple Fortune 500 organizations
Pluto Security today announced its emergence from stealth with $42 million in total funding, multi-million-dollar annual recurring revenue, more than 1 million endpoints secured globally, and more than 40 enterprise customers, including Oscar Health, Workato, Sixt, AlphaSense, and Fortune 500 organizations.
Led by CEO and co-founder Shahar Bahat, Pluto is a female-led company building the security layer for the AI workspace, giving enterprises visibility, contextual risk assessment, and real-time control across the AI tools employees use, the AI supply chain around those tools, and the applications, agents, and automations they create.
Pluto’s latest financing is an approximately $34 million round led by Jump Capital, bringing total funding to $42 million. The seed round was led by TLV Partners, with participation from additional investors.
“Security has traditionally been built around stopping things, but that model breaks down when the business is moving faster than security can evaluate every new tool,” said Bahat. “We took a different approach from the beginning: understand what users are trying to accomplish, understand their intent, and give security teams the context to enable that work safely rather than simply block it. We’ve built that philosophy into both our product and our community, listening closely to security professionals, researching the risks they are encountering, and creating tools that help them move forward. That combination of enablement, user understanding, and community has been a major part of how Pluto has grown so quickly.”
A Different Growth Engine
While many emerging AI security vendors are still establishing their first enterprise relationships, Pluto has built a community-driven, inbound go-to-market motion around the problems security professionals are already experiencing.
The company combines its product with security research, community tools, and free resources designed to help practitioners understand emerging AI risks. One example is Plutonium, a free AI supply chain security hub powered by Pluto’s proprietary RisksDB, which helps security professionals assess risks across AI supply chain components such as skills and extensions. Thousands of security professionals are already using and contributing to Plutonium. Pluto says this combination of community, research, and product has created a powerful inbound motion and helped accelerate enterprise adoption.
“Pluto has built a fundamentally different GTM engine for cybersecurity,” said Saaya Pal, Partner at Jump Capital. “The clearest example is Plutonium, their AI risk database — there was no good public data on what AI tools are actually doing inside enterprises, so the team built it and gave part of it away. Hundreds of practitioners use it every week, and most of Pluto’s pipeline now walks in the door. But that instinct shows up everywhere in how Shahar, Gil, and Tal build. Solving distribution this early is the hardest thing to retrofit later, which is why we led.”
Every Employee Is Now a Developer
AI is reshaping the enterprise endpoint by turning employees into developers and product builders. Tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cowork, Lovable, and Base44 allow employees to build applications, agents, automations, and workflows without traditional development teams.
Those tools also introduce a new AI supply chain spanning skills, extensions, packages, MCPs, models, and other dependencies. According to Pluto, employees across its customer base are using hundreds of supply chain components while building thousands of applications.
Pluto combines endpoint visibility, contextual analysis, and real-time enforcement, allowing security teams to block malicious skills, restrict unsafe agent actions, and prevent access to sensitive data or credentials without stopping legitimate work.
Expanding Pluto’s Platform
The new capital will support continued investment in Pluto’s product, research, and U.S. expansion as the AI supply chain evolves.
“What stood out to us about Pluto was a fundamentally different approach to a rapidly growing problem,” said Rona Segev, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at TLV Partners. “As AI reshapes how people work, Pluto gives security teams a way to understand what’s happening and act with precision, rather than simply blocking innovation. That philosophy is deeply embedded in the company, and the speed of its growth shows how strongly it resonates with enterprises.”
Pluto has grown to more than 50 employees across the United States and Israel. The company was founded by Bahat, Tal Ofer Regev, and Gil Maman, cybersecurity veterans with backgrounds spanning Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, Bridgecrew, and Israel’s Unit 8200.
Bahat previously held senior cybersecurity leadership roles at Microsoft and Palo Alto Networks and is a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree. Regev previously served as VP of R&D at Palo Alto Networks, where he managed more than 150 people. Maman spent more than six years in Israeli Military Intelligence in technical leadership roles spanning advanced cyber R&D and security engineering.
