Opsin raises $21 million for AI agent security platform
Opsin raises $21 million in funding led by SYN Ventures and Race Capital, the company announced in a press release. The company will use the funding to expand its governance and security platform for enterprise AI agents.
The platform connects an agent's purpose, permissions, data access, tools and activity. Security teams can use it to identify behavior or access that falls outside an agent's assigned role across Microsoft Copilot, Claude, ChatGPT Enterprise, Gemini and other approved tools.
Opsin said an analysis of agent activity among its enterprise customers found that 93% of misaligned tools connected to agents had unrestricted access to their associated systems. Only one in 200 required human approval before acting. The company serves nearly 20 enterprise customers, including Culligan, Barry-Wehmiller, Wellstar Health System and UiPath.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?
Tensordyne
This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
