Nexusflow develops a conversational interface that leverages open-source large language models to synthesize data from disparate security knowledge sources and operate existing security tools via their APIs. The product is designed to run models behind a customer’s firewall or in the cloud and to let security teams issue natural-language commands for metrics, insights and tool operations. Founder and CEO Jiantao Jiao (a UC Berkeley computer science professor) cofounded the company with Jian Zhang (formerly director of machine learning software at SambaNova) and Kurt Keutzer (previously CTO at Synopsys). Nexusflow does not yet have customers, though Jiao says “many companies” are discussing proof-of-concept deployments. The company plans to use new funding for hiring, R&D and ongoing product development and intends to double headcount from 10 to 20 by year-end. The team positions the product to reduce toil in security operations centers by making it easier to find and act on security data using generative AI.
