About

Geordie AI is a London-based AI-agent security and governance platform founded in early 2025 by CEO Henry Comfort (former Darktrace COO Americas), Chief AI/Product Officer Hanah Darley (former Darktrace director of security and AI strategy), and CTO Benji Weber (former Snyk senior director of engineering) 123. Geordie won the 2026 RSAC Innovation Sandbox contest in March 2026 (the same competition that previously surfaced Wiz and SentinelOne); the platform is deployed across ~30 customer environments including AlphaSense (covering tens of thousands of agents) and Owkin (hundreds of agents across 50+ petabytes of data), with a team of 37 employees 1. The $30M Series A announced May 28, 2026 was led by Balderton Capital at a ~$180M post-money valuation with new investor Crosspoint Capital and follow-on from existing backers General Catalyst and Ten Eleven Ventures — believed to be the largest Series A for a European cybersecurity startup to date; it follows the $6.5M seed in September 2025 and brings total funding to $36.5M 123.
