Outtake, a digital trust platform protecting organisations from AI-driven impersonation, has raised a $40m Series B funding round led by ICONIQ, with participation from CRV, S32, and a host of prominent technology and security executives.
Angel investors joining the round include Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft; Nikesh Arora, CEO of Palo Alto Networks; Bill Ackman, CEO of Pershing Square Holdings; Shyam Sankar, CTO of Palantir; Trae Stephens, co-founder of Anduril; Bob McGrew, former VP of Research at OpenAI; Guillermo Rauch, CEO of Vercel; and John Donovan, former CEO of AT&T.
The capital will accelerate Outtake’s mission to build the unified platform enterprises rely on to establish and defend trust across an AI-native web.
Outtake offers a single, unified protection layer across all digital identity surfaces. Its platform enables security teams to detect, investigate and disrupt identity-based threats as coordinated campaigns rather than isolated incidents.
Outtake also works with enterprises to design tailored workflows that boost operational velocity, accelerate investigations and prioritisation, reduce takedown times, and surface threats hidden within images, video and complex online ecosystems.
Outtake is experiencing rapid adoption among enterprise security teams, reflected in 6× ARR growth year-on-year and more than 10× growth in enterprise customers.
Headcount has risen more than 250%, mainly in product, engineering and go-to-market functions. The company counts Fortune 500 firms and critical institutions such as OpenAI, Pershing Square, Fortescue, AppLovin and federal agencies among its customers. In 2025, Outtake processed more than 17 million alerts, completed over 4 million investigations and achieved a median takedown time of 18–36 hours per credible threat.
Outtake’s founder and CEO, Alex Dhillon, said, “Security teams are being asked to defend trust everywhere their organization shows up online, while attackers move faster and operate across channels.
“We built Outtake because point solutions can’t keep up with AI-driven deception. Enterprises are choosing a unified platform for digital trust, and this funding allows us to scale alongside customers as that shift accelerates.”
Murali Joshi, general partner at ICONIQ and new board member at Outtake, said, “At ICONIQ, we partner with founders building enduring platforms for some of the most critical challenges enterprises face.
“Digital identity and trust are being fundamentally reshaped by AI, and we believe the team is ambitious and committed to addressing this problem. We are proud to partner with them as they continue to scale.”
The new funding will expand Outtake’s engineering, product and go-to-market teams, deepen its platform capabilities and support growing global demand.
