The all-in-one platform that drives better protection.
Riot develops a security platform designed for fighting phishing attempts.
We're a product-first team on a mission to help grow the cybersecurity culture 🔐
We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that's actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don't feel like they're working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.
We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the platform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. Following the courses, the other side of the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers — but in a safe environment.
Created in 2020, Riot has raised $30m with top-notch investors (Y Combinator, Left Lane, Base10, Funders Club and Frst Capital), and is now protecting more than 500,000 employees in over 1,000 companies (including Intercom, Deel and Deezer) all over the world.
Cybersecurity is everywhere. It's impacting everyone, everyday, and it's becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it's a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We're on a mission to fix that.

I really believe in the mission of Riot: empower employees against cyberattacks. And believe me, they are doing a pretty good job at it: in 2022 alone, Riot trained more than 100,000 employees to deal with hackers.
They have raised and brought on board Base10 Partners (also investors in Notion, Figma, Reddit, ...) leading the last round, alongside Y Combinator (Airbnb, Stripe, Open AI, ...), FundersClub (Slack, Coinbase, ...) and A+ angels (listed in the comments).
Benjamin Netter, the founder has a strong vision and the track of the company has been pretty impressive so far.
