Alice Raises $140M to Expand AI Model Defenses and Enterprise Guardrails

Alice, an AI safety company, raised $140 million to help protect AI systems from vulnerabilities and attacks like prompt injection (tricking an AI by hiding malicious instructions in its input) and jailbreak attempts (bypassing safety restrictions). The company uses stress-testing, red-teaming (simulated attacks to find weaknesses), and a proprietary database called Rabbit Hole to identify threats before models are released and monitor them continuously after deployment.
