Endor Labs Raises $93M to Secure AI-Generated Code at Scale

You are currently viewing Endor Labs Raises $93M to Secure AI-Generated Code at Scale

With AI-generated code rapidly becoming the norm in software development, security risks are also scaling fast, and Endor Labs is rising to the challenge. The Palo Alto-based cybersecurity startup just raised a $93 million Series B round to double down on its mission: securing the ever-growing wave of AI-produced code.

From Dependency Management to AI Code Security

Endor Labs originally focused on securing open-source package dependencies, helping developers manage software supply chain risks. But with the explosion of AI-powered tools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor, the team — led by co-founders Varun Badhwar and Dimitri Stiliadis — saw a more pressing opportunity: flagging vulnerabilities in code created or edited by AI.

The shift paid off. According to Badhwar, Endor has grown its annual recurring revenue by 30x since its last raise in 2023.

“We raised now because we’re seeing strong momentum,” said Badhwar. “This lets us double down on delivering outcomes for our customers.”

How Endor Labs Secures AI-Generated Code

Endor’s platform integrates directly with AI coding tools and development environments, offering:

  • Real-time scanning of AI-generated code
  • Automatic identification and remediation of vulnerabilities
  • Security visibility into AI model integrations
  • Developer-friendly plugins for tools like Cursor and GitHub Copilot

Whether it’s flagging an insecure code snippet or recommending precise fixes, Endor’s tools aim to automate secure-by-default practices for developers.

“Developers are generating vast amounts of code without thorough visibility and control,” said Ramin Sayar of DFJ Growth, the lead investor in this round. “Endor is setting a new standard in application security.”

Trusted by Industry Leaders

Endor’s technology already protects over 5 million applications and runs more than 1 million weekly scans. Customers include major tech names like:

  • OpenAI
  • Dropbox
  • Snowflake
  • Peloton
  • Rubrik
  • Egnyte

These organizations rely on Endor to ensure AI-generated code doesn’t introduce hidden risks into their production environments.

Who’s Backing Endor Labs?

The $93M Series B round included participation from:

  • DFJ Growth (Lead)
  • Salesforce Ventures
  • Lightspeed Venture Partners
  • Coatue
  • Dell Technologies Capital
  • Section 32
  • Citi Ventures

This brings Endor’s total funding to $163 million, signaling strong investor confidence in its platform and future.

Why This Matters

A 2023 report by Synk revealed that over 50% of organizations encounter security issues with AI-generated code. As generative AI becomes more embedded in software pipelines, tools like Endor’s are no longer a “nice to have”—they’re a must-have.

Endor Labs is leading a critical movement in the AI era: making sure that code written by machines meets the same security standards as code written by humans — if not better. With a fresh $93M war chest and momentum on its side, Endor is poised to become the go-to platform for securing the next generation of software.
