AIR raises $50M to help companies vet the skills and add-ons AI agents use

AIR is a new security startup that helps companies monitor and control AI agents (software that can act autonomously on computer systems) and the tools they use, such as skills and plug-ins (add-on components that let agents interact with systems and the internet). The company raised $50 million in funding and offers a platform that discovers which AI agents are running in a company, checks their tools against a list of approved software, and blocks them from using unapproved or dangerous components.
