VC @JumpCapital. Excited about all things cybersecurity, infrastructure and AI

[Jump Capital @jumpcapital]

Cybersecurity companies are raising bigger rounds earlier. But more capital also comes with a higher bar. Or as, Jump Capital Partner @saayanath put it in a @SPGMarketIntel article, “The bigger rounds buy you the scope to actually build a platform, but they also compress the window to prove it.”

We unpacked what’s behind the shift, how AI is changing what security companies need to build, and why capital is increasingly concentrating around fewer, higher-conviction bets: https://t.co/Mdzu2wmUqy

Endlessly grateful to keep doing this thing! LFG

[Jump Capital @jumpcapital]

We've closed our 8th fund at $350M.

We're putting it behind founders chasing the leapfrog moments AI is opening in legacy industries: the places manual process and complexity kept better software out.

Thanks to @Yueqi_Yang at @theinformation for the write-up: https://t.co/1P7waaDQr3

@LayerxSecurity LayerX saw early that the browser would become a critical security layer in the AI era.

Huge congrats to the team on today’s announcement with @Akamai.

Shoutout to @zsparta, @saayanath, @GlilotP, and @DellTechCapital.

Always blown away by the @Standard_Kernel team and what they’re unlocking with their system to optimize GPU kernel gen.

[Standard Kernel Co. @Standard_Kernel]

We built a system combining program analysis and LLMs to transform and optimize PTX. By operating at this shared layer across DSLs (e.g. Triton, TileLang, ThunderKittens, CUTLASS), our system learns the best ideas from each and generates kernels that outperform all of them (1/5)

Above Security emerges from stealth with $50M to tackle insider risk in the age of AI agents.

Proud to participate alongside Ballistic, Merlin, Norwest, and QP Ventures.

Excited for what Aviv, Amir, and team are building.

[Above Security @abovesec]

Checkmate, insider threat.

Above Security is out of stealth and ready to play: with $50M in funding 🎉

We have been stuck in the reactive trap in insider risk for too long - it's time to make prevention proactive and, well, human.

We have a utilization problem.
GPUs are running <30% capacity.

@Standard_Kernel (@anneouyang + @ChrisRinard ) unlocks up to 4x performance.

[Saaya Nath Pal @saayanath]

Agree? Disagree? Either way, if you’ve got thoughts and are building in cyber let’s meet at RSA next week.

[Jump Capital @jumpcapital]

At RSA, one thing is clear: security is lagging how systems actually run.

@saayanath and @pasha_aqil share 5 shifts we’re seeing from non-binary endpoints to agent security.

We’re looking for builders in this space:

[Saaya Nath Pal @saayanath]

It’s rare to find founders so perfectly and uniquely suited to solve a problem, let alone a problem of this magnitude and importance. Proud to lead @Standard_Kernel’s seed round.

[Anne Ouyang @anneouyang]

Excited to share @Standard_Kernel's seed round and some reflections on what we’ve learned about kernel generation and what we believe is next. Grateful to our amazing team, supporters, and the broader community pushing this space forward.

[Saaya Nath Pal @saayanath]

Proud to support @TrueFoundry as they raise $19M Series A to push AI deployment to the next level! 🔥
Big milestone for an amazing team. AI should be effortless and they’re making that happen!

Historically, RPA's goal was to automate routine tasks but it frequently encountered limitations... Studies have cited failure rates of 30-50% for RPA projects

At @FoundationCap, we believe that LLMs are a game-changer for RPA
