imper.ai is a New York-based cybersecurity company that builds an identity verification platform purpose-built for the workforce. It prevents impersonation and account takeover across the employee lifecycle - from hiring to help desk account recovery - by pairing an Impersonation Detection Engine that reads hundreds of network, device, and behavioral signals with an AI-driven contextual verification layer that confirms the real person behind a session using role-specific questions that cannot be sourced from breached data. Founded in 2024 by veterans of Israel's Unit 8200, the company launched publicly in December 2025 with $28M in total funding backed by Redpoint Ventures and Battery Ventures.
