Existing investors Bain Capital, Craft Ventures, Vintage Partners and Maple Capital also took part, bringing the company's total funding to $120 million. The company did not disclose a valuation; according to sources cited by Globes, it is about $400 million. Daylight says its revenue grew more than fortyfold over the past year, and its customers include Lovable, LastPass, Rogo, dLocal and Miro.

Daylight's platform builds and customizes AI agents for each customer's systems, workflows and risks. The agents handle day-to-day security operations, while security engineers focus on decisions that require human judgment. Customers can choose a fully managed service, co-management alongside their internal team, or forward-deployed engineers.

The company was founded in early 2025 by CEO Hagai Shapira and CTO Eldad Rudich, who met while serving in an intelligence unit and later held senior roles at Israeli cybersecurity company Torq. Daylight has 80 employees, 43 of them in Israel. According to Geektime, the round comes exactly a year after the company's previous one.
