Offroad Inc. launched today with $7 million in seed funding to deploy artificial intelligence agents that autonomously investigate and remediate identity access risks across human users, machine identities, and AI agents.
Founded in September 2025 and headquartered in New York and Tel Aviv, Offroad addresses the growing complexity of identity security. The company argues that identity security has evolved from a simple access question into a continuous operational challenge: understanding why access exists, whether it remains justified, how it is used, and what breaks if it changes.
Offroad’s AI agents gather context from scattered sources-identity providers, HR systems, SaaS applications, cloud platforms, and security logs-to investigate and resolve issues. Safe changes are executed automatically, while high-impact changes are routed to appropriate personnel.
The company highlights that autonomous identities now operate at machine speed across multiple systems, breaking traditional detection baselines. Service accounts, API keys, and machine identities often carry broad, persistent access with weak ownership and long lifecycles that most organizations cannot govern effectively.
Offroad audited 2,890 public OAuth applications across Google Workspace and GitHub Marketplaces as of May 2026. It found that roughly one in three-representing over 1.85 billion installations-exhibited serious structural security concerns.
CEO Dan Bendler previously founded two AI startups raising over $45 million combined. CTO Philip Shteyn, a former Unit 8200 captain, helped build Palo Alto Networks' Cortex platform.
The seed round was led by Ibex Investors and Skywell Capital Partners. Adi Dangot Zukovsky, partner at Ibex Investors, stated: "The market is flooded with tools that find identity risk. They need operational leverage, not more interfaces."
Offroad will use the funding for hiring, product development, and expanding its U.S. presence.
