WiseBee raises $2.5m to advance AI autonomous cybersecurity

By Vriti Gothi

WiseBee has raised $2.5 million pre-seed funding round, led by Frontline Ventures and BrightCap Ventures, with participation from a US-based investment firm and several seasoned angel investors from the global cybersecurity community.

Co-founded by CEO Stoyan Stoyanov and CDO Taha Kazi, WiseBee is redefining the cybersecurity landscape with its Agentic Cyber Risk Mitigation Platform an integrated solution that unifies threat intelligence, risk analysis, and attack surface monitoring into a single autonomous ecosystem. Purpose-built for mid-market organisations facing enterprise-grade threats, the platform empowers overstretched security teams with 24/7 protection that extends far beyond traditional alert systems.

With the newly secured capital, WiseBee will accelerate platform development, expand its autonomous threat resolution capabilities, enhance system integrations, grow its global workforce, and strengthen its product-led go-to-market strategy. The company is also preparing for its next funding round while cultivating a community-driven approach to cyber defence, fostering collaboration between security leaders, regulators, and innovators.

Unlike conventional security tools that generate alerts and leave remediation to human teams, WiseBee’s AI-native agents deliver full-cycle remediation. These agents autonomously detect, assess, and neutralise risks in real time addressing the operational and resource limitations that mid-sized security teams often face.

Already gaining traction with early adopters, WiseBee is collaborating with a diverse customer base that includes a US local government and organisations in FinTech, banking, and space technology sectors across Europe. Pilot initiatives are also underway with CISOs from government, defence, and telecom sectors. The company benefits from the guidance of strategic advisors drawn from leading technology and security firms, including SecurityScorecard, VMWare, Box, Amazon, Deloitte, Verizon, and Google.

With strong early market presence across CEE, the UK, DACH, and the US West Coast, WiseBee is positioning itself at the forefront of autonomous, AI-driven security – providing a scalable, intelligence-led defence framework that meets the operational realities of regulated mid-sized enterprises in the digital-first economy.
