Furl
4 known investors
Furl offers a continuous autonomous remediation platform that investigates security findings, generates environment-specific fixes, and deploys them without human handoffs. It targets security teams, handling vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, hardening gaps, and end-of-life systems that patch management leaves open.

Company profile
researched Aug 2026Furl is a Los Angeles-based security remediation company that applies agentic AI to the execution stage of the vulnerability management lifecycle. Its continuous remediation platform ingests findings from a customer's existing scanners, EDR, and asset systems β and runs its own detection β then deduplicates overlapping records into a single per-host item tied to an owner, generates a fix built for the specific environment, deploys it via an endpoint agent, validates that the fix landed, and rolls back on failure. Remediation actions include patching, uninstalling, upgrading, reconfiguring, and mitigating. The company positions the product against the portion of the attack surface that has no vendor patch, such as misconfigurations, hardening gaps, legacy software, and end-of-life systems.
The platform is organized around three primitives: checks (detection logic that surfaces a finding), strategies (the script, patch, configuration change, or uninstall that fixes it), and scopes (customer-defined boundaries covering included and excluded assets, maintenance windows, and approval settings). A component called the Forge researches newly disclosed CVEs and authors a check, a strategy, and a scope independent of vendor roadmaps. Underlying this is a live intelligence context graph of the environment β endpoints, owners, findings, and the relationships between them β which the company describes as the basis for deciding what is safe to touch and in what order. Customers set confidence thresholds and approval gates, and every primitive is reviewed, scoped, and versioned within the customer tenant.
Furl frames the market problem as one of execution rather than detection, citing a Cyentia report commissioned by Cisco stating that organizations fix only 1 in 10 vulnerabilities they identify, alongside months-long MTTR for high-severity findings and a shrinking window between disclosure and working exploit. The platform also produces logs and evidence of investigations, fixes, and validations for audit and compliance purposes.
Founding story
Furl was founded by veterans of Rapid7, Automox, and Censys. CEO and co-founder Derek Abdine has said the team, having built inside vulnerability management and endpoint tooling, saw how remediation breaks down in practice and set out to apply agentic AI to safely executing fixes with environmental context.
Business model
Furl sells a software platform to enterprise security and IT organizations that layers on top of, rather than replaces, the customer's existing scanning and patch management tooling. Specific pricing and contract structures are not disclosed.
Traction
Early adopters are reported to be using Furl to reduce remediation backlogs, eliminate manual handoffs between security and IT, and resolve issues that had stalled due to tooling limits. The company announced general availability of the platform following a period of work with early customers.
Latest developments
Following the January 2026 seed round, Furl said it would accelerate product development, expand operating system coverage, and extend remediation to more complex, multi-step fixes. The company has announced that the platform is generally available.

Market position
Furl positions itself in the remediation and execution layer of the vulnerability management stack, downstream of detection and prioritization vendors, and integrates with scanners and endpoint tools including Rapid7, Tenable, Qualys, Automox, Action1, and SentinelOne. Its investor describes execution as the most neglected part of the security lifecycle.
Rather than generating additional tickets, dashboards, or scripts, Furl performs the remediation work itself, including for issues with no vendor patch such as misconfigurations, hardening gaps, and end-of-life software. It operates within customer-defined guardrails, validates fixes, and rolls back failures, and can author its own detection and fix logic for newly disclosed CVEs without waiting on vendor roadmaps.
Technology
An agentic AI system paired with an endpoint agent. It maintains a live context graph of endpoints, owners, findings, and trust relationships, deduplicates findings across multiple tools into single per-host records, and composes remediations from checks, strategies, and scopes. Execution includes deployment, post-fix validation, automatic rollback on failure, and audit evidence generation. The Forge component authors new checks and strategies for newly disclosed vulnerabilities.
Go-to-market
The company markets directly to security and IT teams through its website with a book-a-demo motion, and emphasizes integration with incumbent tools rather than rip-and-replace. It worked with early adopters ahead of broader availability, and announced general availability of the platform.
Enterprise IT security and IT operations teams responsible for vulnerability and configuration remediation across endpoints and servers, particularly those managing large backlogs and accountable for MTTR and audit reporting.
Geography
Headquartered in Los Angeles, California.
History
The company announced a $10 million seed round on January 21, 2026, led by Ten Eleven Ventures with participation from Rapid7 CEO Corey Thomas and the Open Opportunity Fund. At that time it said it was preparing for broader availability while working with early customers; its website subsequently stated the platform is generally available.
