Executive Summary

Anvilogic sells a security operations platform that runs AI agents on top of the SIEMs, data lakes, and cloud storage an enterprise already owns. The agents onboard security data, build and deploy detections, search across platforms, and triage alerts without moving data or replacing tools. The customer wall names SAP, T-Mobile, PayPal, and BNY, and the company reported dozens of enterprise customers, a third of them Fortune 500 firms, when a $45 million round in 2024 brought total funding to $85 million. Databricks Ventures invested in Anvilogic in 2025 and named it a partner of the year. In June 2026, Databricks agreed to acquire Panther, a rival AI SOC vendor. Watch whether Databricks steers detection work on its platform toward Panther rather than toward Anvilogic.
