Summary
New York-based Outerlimit emerged from stealth with $16 million in pre-seed funding from AlbionVC, Evolution Equity Partners, Crane Venture Partners and angel investors. The company, founded by Tony Pepper, Neil Larkins and Peter Vincent, offers a decentralized security and authorization layer for autonomous agentic AI. It discovers agents, observes their behavior, and enforces a pre-defined policy of allowed and disallowed actions, aiming to prevent harm rather than rely on alignment.
