Teskalabs

Market position

TeskaLabs positions itself as a European alternative to established SIEM vendors and US-cloud-based AI SIEM offerings, stressing sovereignty, explainable in-house AI models, absence of vendor lock-in and volume-independent pricing. It holds ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certifications, and an independent body has verified that LogMan.io meets the requirements of the Czech cybersecurity act; products are developed in line with the EU Cyber Resilience Act, and the platform is presented as covering NIS2, CRA, GDPR and ISO 27001 requirements.

Self-developed and self-operated AI models run in Europe with visible reasoning, full on-premises or air-gapped deployment options, a single integrated stack covering SIEM, SOAR, UEBA and PKI rather than separate tools, storage in portable formats without proprietary lock-in, pricing decoupled from ingested data volume, and direct support from the EU engineers who build the product.

Technology

LogMan.io provides scalable data collection and SIEM processing of large log volumes with sub-second latency and no data loss, tamper-resistant log retention, digitally signed audit trails and continuous monitoring. An agentic AI layer investigates and evaluates alerts, explains its reasoning and ranks remaining alerts by risk, acting on sensitive systems only after human approval; the detection engine and AI models were built in Prague and are trained and operated by the company. SeaCat PKI covers digital certificate lifecycle management and high-rate certificate issuance with automated PKI validation. Data is stored in standard, portable formats, and products are developed under secure-by-design principles.

Go-to-market

Direct sales supported by the company's own engineers, self-service technical tools such as an EPS calculator for sizing daily data volume, storage and event-processing capacity without a sales call, demo requests via the website, and a partner program. Historically the company ran outbound campaigns (for example targeting nationwide transportation and logistics companies) from its London sales operation, and is described as a Cisco Solution Partner.

Enterprises and public-sector bodies in government and state administration, industry and energy including critical infrastructure and smart grids, automotive and C-ITS/V2X connected fleets, and telecommunications operators handling large log volumes. Earlier positioning targeted large enterprises with mobile and IoT deployments, including transportation and logistics companies.

Geography

Research and development in Prague, Czech Republic, with sales operations established in London; AI cloud infrastructure operated in a Czech data centre within the EU. Customers are reported in more than 10 countries, and in 2015 the company stated plans to expand to Germany, Switzerland and Italy.

History

Founded in Prague in 2014, TeskaLabs took part in the StartupYard accelerator's 2015 cohort and was selected for Techstars London immediately after leaving the program in June 2015. The company opened a development office in Prague and moved its sales operation to London, announcing a €337,000 pre-seed round in August 2015 and planning a seed round later that year. Its product focus subsequently broadened from enterprise mobile and IoT security to the LogMan.io SIEM/log management platform and SeaCat PKI, with an agentic AI capability and sovereign EU hosting.
