Outerlimit raises $16M for agent security

Outerlimit emerged from stealth with $16 million in pre-seed funding to build a decentralized security and authorization layer for AI agents, according to its company launch announcement. The product extends Zero Trust to the agent action layer, binding identity, authorization, and tool execution; its backers are AlbionVC, Evolution Equity Partners, and Crane Venture Partners. For teams adding agents to production, the archive’s agent-harness cost analysis is a reminder that execution controls are becoming a budget line, not only a checklist.
