Nearly every day we read a message from a customer who almost lost something real (savings, a business, peace of mind) and didn't. For me, those messages are what we actually deliver as a company.

Is a $1.1 billion valuation exciting? Honestly - yes. But it's a stepping stone, not a finish line. Tens of millions of people are still "protected" by software built for a decade that's over. It's our mission and commitment to reach as many of them as possible.

To our team: a million people around the world sleep safer because of what we all built together. I’m so proud of what we built together. Thank you.

To our investors and partners: you stood by us through thick and thin. Thank you for your trust and partnership.

To our customers: Thank you. You realized the world is changing before most of the industry did. We'll keep working day and night to keep you safe.
We've only just started - and I've never been more excited to get to work.

TLDR: We raised $40M at a $1.1B valuation. A million people now pay for Guardio, and we crossed $150M in ARR.

Consumer cybersecurity hasn't really changed in 20 years. Meanwhile, AI scams are going wild, and honestly, just a fraction of humanity is protected.

Read below why we think consumer cybersecurity is one of the biggest opportunities in AI.

Israeli cybersecurity startup Guardio raised funds from investors including Assaf Rappaport, the founder of cloud security firm Wiz, in a round that values the company at $1.1 billion https://t.co/wAjlZHCvQE

That's the core of the problem: the old tools protect your device. But you are not a device. The text about a package. The call from your "bank." The site that looks exactly like the real one. These attacks don't target your computer. They target your judgment, in a tired moment, on whatever screen is in your hand. And soon, not just you: the AI assistants that browse, shop, and click on your behalf will need protection from deception too.

So we built Guardio around an alternative approach: protect the person, not the device. We watch the places scams actually reach you: messages, email, calls, browsing. And we stop them before you ever tap the link, even when a scam hops between devices, like a phone call that lures you into downloading malware on your PC. This is the level of protection a Fortune 500 security team takes for granted. I believe your parents, your child, and you deserve it too.

Have you noticed how malicious links are now being "𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐤𝐞𝐝"?
@nikitabier

X won't allow links in promoted posts to fight malvertising. Yet scammers love the challenge and trick X’s AI to amplify the same links that should've been blocked!

This is "𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠" 👇

@rauchg Bad actors move faster and more creatively than anyone. Big Tech isn’t built like a security company - they do what they can without risking core KPIs.
Adding some live examples hosted on vercel 🙂
