Daylight

Daylight (Daylight Security) is an AI-native Managed Detection and Response (MDR) provider delivering what it calls Managed Agentic Security Services (MASS) — combining agentic AI with elite human analysts to run security operations end-to-end, from real-time threat detection through Tier 1 triage, deep Tier 3 investigations, and full incident response, 24x7x365. The platform ingests signals across endpoints, cloud, and networks, learns each customer's business context (identity platforms, HR systems, even Slack), and connects into the customer stack (AWS, Google Cloud, Microsoft 365, Snowflake, Slack, Microsoft Teams). Daylight exposes a partner API at api.daylight.ai (OAuth2 / OIDC, Bearer) plus an OAuth-protected Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so security teams can connect investigations to AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor. Daylight is SOC 2 Type II certified and ISO 27001 compliant. Founded in 2024 by Hagai Shapira and Eldad Rudich; backed by Craft Ventures, Bain Capital Ventures, and Maple VC ($40M raised). Added to the API Evangelist network from VC-portfolio discovery.

Daylight publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Security, Cybersecurity, Managed Detection and Response, and MDR.

Daylight’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, engineering blog, support, signup flow, authentication, and 12 more developer resources.
