BforeAI builds the PreCrime™ platform, a behavioral AI–powered predictive attack intelligence and digital risk protection solution that predicts and preempts malicious campaigns. The company says PreCrime monitors 98% of the Internet, predicts threats an average of 18 days ahead, and posts a 0.05% false positive rate. BforeAI recently launched a PreCrime Guarantee and a breach protection pledge with a leading global cyber insurance provider, reimbursing customers up to ten times their service contract if impacted by a covered failure. The company has grown substantially over the past year, was named a 2024 Gartner Cool Vendor for AI in Banking and Investment Services, and relocated its headquarters to New York. It plans to use the new funding to expand sales resources, strengthen partnerships, enhance the PreCrime platform and accelerate market expansion into utilities, pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors. BforeAI is led by CEO and founder Luigi Lenguito. BforeAI offers predictive attack intelligence and digital risk protection services through its AI-driven PreCrime™ platform. The platform ingests massive datasets and analyzes Internet metadata to map and predict malicious infrastructure, establish baselines, and detect anomalies to deter attacks before they execute. The company says this enables a preemptive active defense posture; CEO Luigi Lenguito stated BforeAI is automatically blocking thousands of attacks every day. Customers worldwide include large social media platforms, financial services organizations, and global manufacturers in the medical device, food service, and home electronics industries. BforeAI raised $15M in a Series A round and intends to use the funds to expand operations and development efforts. Early investors Karma Ventures, Karista, and Addendum Capital participated alongside lead investor SYN Ventures and a new investment from the Partnership Fund for New York City. Bfore.AI develops an AI-driven predictive cybersecurity platform called the PreCrime Network that forecasts threats in hours rather than weeks. Its core software originates from a decade-long research programme funded through France's iLAB grant regime. The product focuses on identifying vulnerable vectors into enterprise IT networks and the company claims a 0.05% false positive rate. Bfore.AI has integrated with partners such as Quad9 for DNS intrusion blocking and works with the Global Cyber Alliance, ThreatStop, and CDRF Labs. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Montpellier, France, the startup is expanding its product capabilities and partnerships. The recent Series A funding will be used to drive expansion and bring new features for northern European markets and North America.
