Lakera, a San Francisco, CA-based real-time generative AI security company, raised $20M in Series A funding.
The round, which brought the total amount to $30M, was led by Atomico, with participation from Citi Ventures, Dropbox Ventures, and existing investors including redalpine. As part of this round, Atomico Partner Sasha Vidiborskiy will join Lakera’s board.
The company intends to use the funds to invest further in its product development and expand its presence in the US, where it already has a foothold in Silicon Valley.
