    Led · Seed · Mar 2025

    AIceberg offers an AI trust platform providing enterprise-grade security with real-time, automated validation of AI application traffic across speech, text, images and source code. The system combines expertise in machine learning, cybersecurity and automation to enable safe, auditable AI deployments. Key features include safety guardrails that prevent unsanctioned or illegal content and automatic redaction of personal or sensitive information. The platform detects AI-specific attack vectors such as prompt injection, prompt leaking and jailbreaking, and performs security analysis for agentic workflows. It emphasizes compliance, transparency and auditability through explainable, non-generative AI models and provides enterprise observability into prompts, objectives and prompt/response pairings. Led by CEO Alex Schlager, the company plans to use the proceeds to expand operations and accelerate development efforts; it raised $10M in Seed funding.
