Askeal, the AI cybersecurity assistant that gives verifiable, expert-backed answers
AI security startup Askeal launches with $1.1 million pre-seed, pairing generative AI with 270+ vetted cybersecurity experts for verifiable answers.
Askeal, cofounded in August 2025 by Roxane Suau, launched an AI cybersecurity assistant that combines generative AI with a vetted community of more than 270 expert contributors and 178 public sources, backed by a $1.1 million pre-seed round. The tool answers natural-language security questions with evidence-backed, verifiable assessments, supporting CVE remediation guidance, URL, domain and hash lookups, and log analysis with IOC extraction. Its beta opened in February 2026, reaching 500 testers across 69 countries in two and a half months; the product is currently free, with paid plans and contributor revenue share planned. Its neuro-symbolic technology was developed with the Montpellier Laboratory of Computer Science, Robotics, and Microelectronics.

Intezer adds native response automation without separate SOAR
Intezer launched Workflows, native response automation inside its AI SOC, letting teams automate remediation without a separate SOAR platform.
Intezer announced Workflows, a native automation and response builder inside its AI SOC platform that lets security teams run post-investigation actions such as closing alerts, isolating hosts, and updating tickets without a separate SOAR. Workflows are created through natural language via MCP, inherit full investigation context, and are logged for audit, with per-tenant routing and customer communications aimed at MSSPs. The announcement cites Intezer's AI SOC Report 2026 finding that nearly 1% of real incidents trace back to lowest-severity alerts.
