219 Rue Saint-Denis, Paris, Ile-de-France, 75002, France

Overview

Escape builds AI agents that automate the entire security lifecycle, from attack-surface discovery through continuous testing and remediation, directly within engineering workflows. Founded by CEO Tristan Kalos and CTO Antoine Carossio, the platform replaces legacy scanners and manual penetration-testing processes with software that simulates attacker behaviour in live systems to uncover configuration, authentication, and business-logic flaws. In a recent assessment, Escape’s technology scanned 5,600 publicly available applications and surfaced more than 2,000 high-impact vulnerabilities, including 175 instances of personal-data exposure, demonstrating its ability to operate at scale and speed. The company positions itself as a solution for security teams that are outnumbered and overwhelmed by the pace of AI-driven software development. With fresh capital, Escape plans to deepen its AI agent capabilities—such as logic-aware penetration testing—and to grow its engineering and go-to-market teams. Expansion efforts will target enterprise customers across the United States and Europe. No revenue figures were disclosed in the article.
