Qevlar AI
AI SOC platform that surfaces real signals from alert noise
About Qevlar AI
Qevlar AI is a Paris-based cybersecurity company founded in 2023 by Ahmed Achchak (CEO) and Hamza Sayah that builds an agentic AI Security Operations Centre platform. Rather than copilots that still need analysts to prompt and enrich every alert, Qevlar autonomously pulls data from the security stack, enriches evidence, correlates context and issues a benign-or-malicious verdict without rigid playbooks, then surfaces patterns so SOCs can fix root causes instead of only firefighting. Customers named in press include Mercedes-Benz and Sodexo plus MSSPs such as Orange Cyberdefense, ECI and Atos; the company cites investigations cut to about three minutes with full-depth coverage. After earlier rounds that brought commitments to about €12.8 million (including a €9.1 million extension led by EQT Ventures and Forgepoint Capital International in 2025), Qevlar raised €25.8 million ($30 million) in March 2026 jointly led by Partech and Forgepoint Capital International with EQT Ventures participating, to extend the platform from alert investigation into lasting security intelligence.
