Zenity Raised $125M From Norwest to Sit Between Enterprise Agents and the Actions They Try to Take
Zenity announced a $125M Series C on August 3, 2026 led by Norwest Venture Partners, with SoftBank Vision Fund 2, Qumra Capital, Hitachi Ventures, and LG Technology Ventures joining existing backers Vertex, Third Point, DTCP, and Intel Capital. The product inspects an agent's intended action and allows, modifies, or blocks it before execution — an interception layer, not a scanner — sold to Fortune 500 and Global 2000 buyers in financial services, healthcare, pharma, energy, and manufacturing, with SoftBank Corp. named as a customer. Revenue tripled in each of the past two years and is tracking to triple again in 2026 across 230+ employees. Agent governance is now funded as its own budget line rather than a SaaS-security feature, which is bad news for the CASB and SSPM vendors that assumed they would absorb it.
