Thayer Investment Partners is pleased to share that JetStream has emerged from stealth with a $34 million seed round, led by Redpoint Ventures with participation from the CrowdStrike Falcon Fund and a roster of cybersecurity luminaries including George Kurtz (CrowdStrike), Assaf Rappaport (Wiz), and Frederic Kerrest (Okta). The round was massively over-subscribed and closed in a matter of weeks.

JetStream was founded by veteran security operators from CrowdStrike, Dazz, SentinelOne, Cohesity, McAfee, and Attivo Networks. The company's mission is to accelerate enterprise AI adoption by delivering a governance-grade inspection and control layer that helps enterprises see, understand, and manage how agents operate across the organization — establishing identity governance and controls for virtual workforces while maintaining agent-level cost controls without slowing innovation.

Every enterprise deploying agentic AI eventually runs into the same wall: they cannot see what their agents are doing, what data they are touching, or how to control them at scale. JetStream is building the operating system for that problem.

At the core of the platform is JetStream AI Blueprints™ — dynamic, system-generated graphs that map the relationships among agents, the models they use, the data they access, the tools they call, and the identities behind every action. JetStream is already working with Fortune 500 organizations and is hiring aggressively across engineering, product, and go-to-market.

For Thayer, JetStream represents a category-defining bet on the infrastructure layer beneath the agentic enterprise. Our portfolio is increasingly populated by AI-native companies — in hospitality, travel, mobility, and adjacent verticals — whose products depend on agents acting safely on behalf of real businesses and real guests. A governance layer like JetStream's is not optional infrastructure for that future; it is foundational. We are excited to support a team this senior, this technical, and this commercially proven as they bring governance to enterprise AI.
