Announcement
AI needs clear liability
Jesus Santos, CEO1 min read
Today Harbor comes out of stealth with $10 million led by Base10, Abstract and 8VC, in collaboration with Restive, NFX, Innovation Endeavors, Kibo Ventures, Masia and MVP Ventures.
We started Harbor with one mission: to insure the agentic economy.
The problem nobody owns
As AI agents take on responsibilities once held by humans, the source of risk is shifting from human decisions to machine actions. Rather than pacing the frontier, we believe the solution lies in pushing this frontier with real skin in the game.
We're making these risks measurable, manageable and, most importantly, insurable. We're building a new category of insurance.
With our risk platform, we find every agent a company runs, measure its operational, security and regulatory risk, and block the decisions that break the company's rules before they go through. The measurement is what makes the risk insurable. Whatever remains, Harbor insures, with our own money behind the answer.
Who we are
The four of us met at Stanford and left to build this, with a team of former founders, IMO and IOI medalists, professional athletes and competitive programming champions in San Francisco, the United States and Europe. Our first customers are banks and insurers in the United States, Europe and Latin America.
The path ahead
We're creating a new market. Every agent running inside a company will have its risk measured, and insured, the way every car and every building is today. That market is just the beginning, and we intend to lead it. The opportunity is enormous: for our customers, for the people who trust them, and for Harbor.
If you want to help build it, we'd love to hear from you.
The best is yet to come.
