Hakimo

Hakimo, a Menlo Park, CA-based physical security technology company, raised $6M in funding.

The round was led by Rocketship.vc, with participation from existing investors Neotribe Ventures, defy.vc and Firebolt Ventures as well as new investors Carrier Global Corporation, through its venture capital group, Carrier Ventures, and physical security industry entrepreneur John L. Moss.

The company intends to use the funds to further accelerate product development and expand into new markets. 

Founded by Sam Joseph and Sagar Honnungar, Hakimo builds a smart physical security monitoring platform powered by artificial intelligence. The solution uses computer vision and machine learning to automate the monitoring of physical security sensors such as cameras and badge readers. The platform also provides an option to communicate warnings through speakers when it detects unwanted activity such as a person entering an area where they do not belong. This combination of automated monitoring and response helps security teams save time and money while proactively deterring and preventing security breaches from occurring. 

Furthermore, the platform natively integrates with most enterprise video and access control systems to provide a unified solution that responds to alarms automatically, exposes potential insider threats and detects faulty cameras and door hardware.
