"Building AI for aerospace, healthcare, and finance taught us that the highest safety and security standards must be integral to every step of development and operation. There is no better time than now to apply these same rigorous standards to securing AI across all industries."

David Haber 

(CEO)

“As AI systems became more prevalent, we noticed a critical gap: traditional security approaches couldn't handle AI's unique challenges. We realized securing AI is an AI-first problem, requiring deep understanding of the technology itself. That's why at Lakera, we're developing security solutions that think and adapt like the AI they safeguard.”

Matthias Kraft 

(CTO)

“We're entering an era of autonomous AI agents making critical decisions in our lives and businesses. These AI systems hold immense potential, but also introduce new risks. At Lakera, we're committed to securing this AI-powered future. Our mission is to ensure these AI systems remain powerful tools for innovation, not security liabilities.”
