Legion, a browser-native AI Security Operations Center (SOC), is reporting a $38 million Seed round while emerging from stealth mode. The company notes that it has previously raised an early seed round.
According to a note from the company, funding was led by Coatue, with participation from Accel and Picture Capital, along with investors from tech companies, like Google, Crowdstrike, and Wiz.
Legion claims to be the first of its kind to offer AI SOC as a browser extension. The service is said to turn in-house expertise into scalable automation as it learns from usage and then automates it over time.
The company points to information that states 71.6% of researchers and analysts spend most of their time triaging alerts, filtering false positives, and documenting cases. Legion aims to address these shortcomings by leveraging AI.
Legion was founded in 2024 by security veterans Ely Abramovitch (CEO), Michael Gladishev (VP R&D), an alumnus of Microsoft, and Eyal Fisher (CTO), an AI founder.
Abramovitch says that today, most AI SOC integrations are too complex and then fail to adapt to a firm’s unique environment.
“Legion is the first browser-based platform designed to scale your team’s best instincts into AI-driven workflows. It’s fully trained within your environment, by your team, for your team. Our goal is to turn your expertise into scalable automation, letting the security team focus on what’s really important.”
Legion reports that it is already being utilized by Fortune 500 enterprises across finance, healthcare, and energy. According to the company, customers have reported up to a 90% reduction in investigation and response times
