Jul 17th, 2026 Inside Greylock's $1.5 billion AI playbook. Greylock has raised a new $1.5 billion fund to invest in the next generation of AI startups. Greylock partner Saam Motamedi joins Bloomberg to discuss why he believes the biggest AI companies are still waiting to be built, where venture capital is flowing, and why it's too soon to write off OpenAI and Anthropic despite growing competition from China's Moonshot. He joins Ed Ludlow on "Bloomberg Tech." Top video. Available on:

Introducing oak: the ai-native Identity Operating System. Article written by: Mor works with early stage Israeli founders, particularly in cybersecurity and enterprise AI. Published: Share via: An AI-native platform that governs every identity across an organization. Identity has become the largest unresolved problem in enterprise security. Legacy tooling built to govern it (IGA, IAM) was designed for a static world of human users and periodic certification. Two shifts have broken that model. First, machine and AI-agent identities now vastly outnumber human ones by more than 100 to 1, and that ratio is compounding as agentic AI spreads through the enterprise. Second, AI has made it possible to operate on identity data at a coverage and speed that manual, rules-based systems cannot approach. We believe this has opened a rare window to consolidate a fragmented, multi-billion-dollar market around a single platform, and Oak has assembled a well equipped team to do it. The Oak founding team has worked this problem from the inside for years. From our first conversation with Shai Morag, it was clear we were meeting an exceptional founder: he brought the urgency and hunger of someone with everything still to prove, paired with hard-won experience that comes from having already built and sold three security companies. He is joined by co-founder and CPO Tal Marom, who led product teams at Tenable and Salesforce, alongside a bench of identity and AI veterans drawn from the industry's best security companies and elite technology units. Oak is building an AI-native platform that replaces the fragmented stack of legacy identity governance and security tools with a single, continuously updated control plane: one that governs every identity across an organization, whether human, machine, or AI agent. Oak emerges from stealth today with $60 million in seed financing co-led by Greylock, Accel, and CRV. We're privileged to partner with Shai, Tal, and the entire Oak team as they build the Identity Operating System for the AI era. To learn more, or to join them, visit oak.id.
