Lyrie.ai Exits Stealth With $2M to Secure the Agentic AI Economy
Dubai-based Lyrie.ai has emerged from stealth with $2 million in pre-seed funding to build autonomous cybersecurity for AI agents, launching an open 'Agent Trust Protocol' for verifying and authorizing them.
Lyrie.ai, a Dubai-based cybersecurity startup, has exited stealth with $2 million in pre-seed funding to secure the fast-emerging 'agentic AI' economy. Its platform provides autonomous penetration testing, adversarial red-teaming, and vulnerability research aimed at protecting AI agents deployed across enterprise and government systems.
At the core of the launch is the Agent Trust Protocol (ATP), an open cryptographic standard the company is proposing for AI-agent identity verification, scope enforcement, and tamper detection. Founder Guy Sheetrit argues that today's AI agents are 'effectively anonymous,' operating without the security foundation the technology now demands.
Built by OTT Cybersecurity, Lyrie.ai has been accepted into Anthropic's Cyber Verification Programme and is already preparing for a Series A. The pre-seed capital will fund engineering and go-to-market as it positions ATP as foundational infrastructure for AI-agent security.
