Overview

Nudge Security is an Austin-based cybersecurity startup that secures AI and SaaS at the "Workforce Edge," the point where employees select and use cloud applications. Its platform automatically discovers all SaaS and AI tools, integrations, human and non-human identities, and user activities within minutes, then applies policy-driven, just-in-time nudges through the browser, Slack, or Teams to steer employees toward safe behavior. Key capabilities include day-one discovery, proprietary risk intelligence, automated guardrails, identity governance workflows, and continuous security posture monitoring. Since launching in October 2022, the company has recorded 3× year-over-year ARR growth for two consecutive years, shipped more than 60 feature releases in the past 12 months, and onboarded nearly 200 customers across software, financial services, healthcare, biotechnology, and entertainment sectors. Customers such as Reddit praise the product for delivering complete SaaS visibility within hours of deployment. The new funding will fuel further product innovation and go-to-market expansion as Nudge Security broadens governance of workforce interactions with AI and SaaS.
