Wald.ai
Wald.ai is a Palo Alto-based context intelligence company that lets enterprises use generative AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok without leaking sensitive data. Its context-aware DLP engine uses specialized small language models to detect and redact confidential information in real time, then restores it in the response, giving regulated industries a governed, single-pane way to adopt AI without blocking it. Founded in 2023 by Vinay Goel and Ritesh Ahuja, the company closed a $4M seed round in December 2024.
Teleskope
Teleskope is a New York-based data security company that builds what it calls the industry's first agentic data protection platform. Founded in 2022 by former Airbnb security engineers Elizabeth Nammour and Julie Trias, it autonomously discovers, classifies, and protects sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, and on-premises environments, then automatically remediates risk through redaction, masking, encryption, and access fixes. The platform uses smaller, fine-tuned models to read business context, aiming to move teams beyond alert fatigue toward real action.
