Protos Labs

Agentic AI platform for cyber risk quantification and threat intelligence

Specialty Solutions Growth Seed

Overview

Protos Labs is a Singapore-based cyber risk and threat intelligence software provider serving insurers and enterprises. Founded in 2020 by ex-Booz Allen Hamilton cyber security leaders, the company delivers SaaS platforms that quantify cyber risk exposure and automate threat analysis for insurance underwriting and enterprise security operations.

The company offers two platforms: Nexus, a cloud-based cyber risk intelligence platform for insurers, and Protos AI, an agentic AI product for adversarial risk intelligence launched in 2025. Nexus consolidates external threat feeds, internal security tool data, and third-party questionnaires to deliver real-time cyber risk scoring, reducing underwriting cycle time to approximately 15 minutes. Protos AI autonomously plans, collects, and contextualizes threat intelligence across cyber, supply chain, financial crime, and insider threat domains, with support for air-gapped deployment and multi-source evidence validation before surfacing findings.

Protos Labs has raised USD 4.5M+ across two oversubscribed seed rounds and counts Lloyds of London (Lloyd's Lab Cohort 11), HannoverRe, and the Cybersecurity Agency of Singapore among its key partners. The company was the first Singaporean firm accepted into Lloyd's Lab and has expanded its market coverage from Southeast Asia to include the UK and US.
