Outerlimit raises $16M to build security layer preventing harm from rogue autonomous AI agents.

Outerlimit has emerged from stealth with $16 million in pre-seed funding to build a security layer for autonomous agentic AI.

The approach sidesteps alignment problems by treating all agents as potentially misaligned and enforcing predefined policies externally.
