What believers are saying

  • Expansion has fresh capital: TENEX raised $250 million in March 2026, led by Crosspoint Capital.
  • Retirement savings get support: TENEX advertises a full 401K match on contributions up to 6%.
  • Sales span different outsourcing needs: TENEX sells stack optimization, shared operations and fully managed security.

What critics are saying

  • Remote flexibility is limited: TENEX promotes on-site-first roles in Sarasota, Overland Park and San Jose.
  • Customer engineering absorbs subscription revenue: TENEX includes parser, playbook, detection and integration work without separate change orders.
  • Delivery failures carry contractual stakes: TENEX's fully managed service commits to service levels and round-the-clock support.

What makes TENEX.AI unique

  • Platform knowledge runs deep: TENEX's founding engineers built Google Chronicle, the predecessor to Google SecOps.
  • Customers retain their telemetry: TENEX runs inside existing Google SecOps or Microsoft Sentinel environments.

TENEX.AI partners with TGR Haas F1 Team.

TENEX.AI partners with TGR Haas F1 Team. * October 23, 2026 And Why the Name on the Car is the Least Important Part. There's a version of this story the market tells every time a technology company shows up on a race car, and most of the time it's accurate. The logo goes on the bodywork, the photographs get taken, the brand gets in front of a few hundred million viewers over the course of a season and everybody shakes hands and goes back to what they were doing. It's a sponsorship, and sponsorships are fine. This isn't one of those. This weekend at the race in Austin, TENEX.AI becomes an Official Partner of TGR Haas F1 Team, and its name goes on the engine cover and halo of the VF-26 for the first time, which Tenex.AI Inc. is proud of and will not pretend otherwise. But the reason this partnership exists has very little to do with paint. Starting now, TENEX.AI is running fully agentic, human-led security operations across the team's global digital infrastructure, the same way Tenex.AI Inc. run it for every customer Tenex.AI Inc. protect, and once you understand what that involves in a race environment, the logo starts to look like the smallest part of the deal. The Fastest Operation in Sport Is Also One of the Most Exposed A team is one of the most connected operations in sport, and it isn't close. High-speed telemetry, remote engineering data and trackside networks move between the circuit and the factory constantly, strategy calls get made in seconds on the back of that data, and a pit call that arrives a few seconds late can cost a race the team spent a year preparing for. Everything the team does runs on a clock measured in tenths, and the security protecting all of it has to run on that same clock. Most of the industry still doesn't. In a typical security operation a threat can sit in a queue for hours waiting for an analyst to get to it, and that's a real problem for any organization, but for a team whose entire competitive advantage is built on moving data faster than everyone else on the grid it's something closer to a liability. The connectivity that makes a modern team fast is exactly what makes it a target, and the people doing the targeting don't care about the sport. They're the same people going after hospitals, banks and manufacturers every day, they care about what they can take, disrupt or hold for ransom, and the car just happens to be the most visible thing in the building. On the Car, and in the Fight Here's what the partnership actually looks like from the inside: starting this weekend, TENEX.AI delivers fully agentic, human-led Security Operations Center capabilities and 24/7/365 threat detection for TGR Haas F1 Team. Agentic AI investigates every alert the team receives, 100% of them, in seconds, builds the full context around each one and hands a complete case to a named TENEX.AI analyst who owns the decision. Obvious attacks get stopped at machine speed and escalated for validation afterward, the team's data stays in the team's environment, and every step along the way is visible and auditable, so there is never a question of what the AI did, what the human did or why. AI handles the volume. Humans handle the judgment. Tenex.AI Inc. has been saying that since the day Tenex.AI Inc. launched, and it isn't something Tenex.AI Inc. dressed up for an audience, it's how Tenex.AI Inc. run security operations for every customer Tenex.AI Inc. protect and it's exactly why an team looked at the way Tenex.AI Inc. work and decided that's how they wanted theirs run. While their engineers are watching tire temps and lap deltas, its analysts are watching their network, and the team gets to think about the car. Why TGR Haas F1 Team Chose TENEX "We're delighted to welcome TENEX.AI to TGR Haas F1 Team as an Official Partner. In modern Formula 1, data protection and rapid cyber incident response are as vital to performance as aerodynamic efficiency. TENEX.AI's fully agentic, human-led approach will give our engineers and strategists the confidence to focus entirely on track performance. We look forward to building a powerful, technology-driven partnership together for the remainder of 2026 and the seasons ahead." - Ayao Komatsu, Team Principal, TGR Haas F1 Team Read that quote again, because there's something in it that most partnership announcements don't have. A Team Principal is putting cyber incident response in the same sentence as aerodynamic efficiency, and he's doing it in the week his team races at home. That's not a courtesy. It's a statement about what it takes to compete at the top of this sport in 2026, and it's the same conclusion the best security leaders in every industry are arriving at right now, whether they're running a race team, a hospital system or a global bank. "A Formula 1 team is one of the most connected operations in sport, and it moves at a pace where a threat sitting in a queue for hours is a real problem. That is what TENEX.AI was built for. Agentic AI investigates every alert in seconds, and a named analyst owns every consequential decision. We're proud to bring that to TGR Haas F1 Team, and proud to put our name on an American team competing at the top of the sport." - Eric Foster, Founder and CEO, TENEX.AI The Mission Is Real Tenex.AI Inc. talk a lot at TENEX.AI about fighting evil, and Tenex.AI Inc. mean it literally. The bad guys have been winning for a long time, not because they're smarter than the people defending against them but because they move faster, and agentic AI with exceptional humans making the calls that matter is how that finally changes. Protecting a Formula 1 team is a proof point, not a pitch, because if this approach holds up in an environment where everything moves at race pace, every second is measured and every weekend is a deadline, it holds up anywhere. This one is also personal for Tenex.AI Inc.. TGR Haas F1 Team is an American owned team competing at the very top of a global sport, TENEX.AI is an American company built to do the best work in the fight against cybercrime, and from the first conversation, putting those two things together on the same car felt like the obvious thing to do. What's on the VF-26, and What Comes Next For the rest of the 2026 season you'll find TENEX.AI on the engine cover and halo of the VF-26, and beginning in 2027 the partnership extends to the driver race suits, team and management apparel and the team's Academy assets. The branding will grow over the seasons ahead, but the work started this week, and the work is the part Tenex.AI Inc. care about most. TGR Haas F1 Team races at home this weekend at, with practice Friday, qualifying Saturday and lights out Sunday. If you're in Austin, look for the name on the engine cover. If you're responsible for security somewhere that moves fast, Tenex.AI Inc.'d like to talk.

Tenex.AI looks to widen channel reach with Infinigate.

Tenex.AI looks to widen channel reach with Infinigate. Security player signs distributor to cover UK and Ireland as it continues to build its presence across the wider EMEA market. Published: 03 Sep 2026 16:00 Agentic security operations specialist Tenex.AI has signed Infinigate Group as its distribution partner covering the UK and Ireland, with plans to extend that across EMEA. The security player is taking a two-tier channel approach across EMEA as it looks to get its technology in front of more customers, pitching an approach that stresses the speed with which it can respond to alerts. Piers Morgan, head of EMEA at Tenex.AI, said it was keen to build its channel ecosystem, and Infinigate would be able to start in the UK and Ireland and then slot into the pan-European role across EMEA. "We're very much 100% behind the channel, traditional two tier, so distribution through to a select number of tier one partners that we're working closely with," he said. "When I say partners, that goes across the ecosystem of geographies and verticals. "We're looking at relationships with the likes of Infinigate that stretch across all of those regions from a pan-EMEA perspective," added Morgan. "In terms of the channels to market, we're looking at both the MSP [managed service provider], MSSP [managed security service provider] and traditional VAR [value-added reseller] market, and then looking at specific sectors as well, such as telecoms, insurance, the list the list goes on." Gordon Lyon, sales director at Infinigate UK and Ireland, said it would be adding the Tenex.AI technology into its portfolio, offering UK and Ireland partners the opportunity to help users struggling to deal with high volumes of alerts. "Adding Tenex.AI's agentic security operations to our UK portfolio strengthens our ability to help partners address customers' increasingly complex security challenges, while creating new opportunities for them to differentiate, grow services revenue and deliver faster, more effective protection against evolving cyber threats," he said. Expanding channel coverage. Tenex.AI has been around for 18 months, and has been ramping up the EMEA business, getting feet on the ground and expanding its channel coverage. Morgan said its technology worked with existing tools customers had invested in, and as a result gave the channel the chance to talk of enhancing existing investments, rather than the more awkward rip and replace option. "We don't ask customers to rip out obviously legacy platforms and what they've invested their hard-earned money in, in terms of their existing cyber fabric," he said. "But what we do is we natively deploy our services into the SIEM providers. We allow the businesses to really utilise what they've invested in over the years, and take advantage of our real-time services." Morgan added that its willingness to offer service-level agreements (SLAs) to customers was also a talking point that channel partners could dwell on when pitching the technology. "We can offer some of the SLAs and negotiate those individually with each organisation," said Morgan. "But you know we will guarantee to triage 100% of those alerts in under 60 seconds." Morgan said that its approach, using agentic AI to automate processes with human experts making decisions, meant it was able to provide assurances to customers looking for quick reactions backed by security operations centre analysts. "The big thing for us is we're not trying to replace the human element," he said. "There are still very important decisions to be made. But what we can do is automate and filter all of the noise that those humans are currently drowning in, and allow them to concentrate on the other things that matter."
