Petra Security runs an AI-powered platform to protect SMBs from account takeovers. SMBs spend over $100 Billion a year on cybersecurity and are facing increasingly sophisticated and frequent attacks. Business Email Compromise attacks (BECs) have exploded, rising 141% y/y, largely driven by AI phishing. They have become the #1 way that businesses lose money to cyberattacks. Petra detects more attacks and responds faster than any competitor on the market, while also triggering fewer false positives.

We’ve grown very quickly , reaching mid-7-figures in ARR in a year. Over the last year, we’ve established ourselves as the best-in-class solution for account attack detection (check out our research ). We already protect over 1.6 Million users across 10,000+ businesses. We win 90%+ of head-to-heads. We price premium, yet have extremely low customer churn. Our customers consistently tell us that Petra is the best product they’ve ever used . You can see a demo of Petra here .
