## Summary

Exited stealth in Q1 2026 with $4.2M launch funding. Endpoint layer for monitoring and controlling AI agents running on employee devices.

## Company Overview

Certiv focuses on a narrow but rapidly growing problem — AI agents running directly on employee endpoints (browser agents, desktop automations, Claude Computer Use, local copilots). The company builds an endpoint agent that inventories, monitors, and governs which AI agents employees deploy and what actions they can take.

Certiv exited stealth in Q1 2026 with $4.2M in launch funding, joining the wave of agent-security startups that sprang up after agents like Anthropic's Computer Use and ChatGPT Operator showed concrete enterprise risk.

Competitors include Capsule, Lasso Security, Prompt Security, Zenity, and traditional EDR vendors (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne) that are extending coverage to the agent layer. Certiv's edge is endpoint-native architecture — it sees what other tools can't because it runs on the same device as the agent it governs.
