Israeli autonomous frontend startup AutonomyAI, led by Arik Faingold, the founder of cybersecurity unicorn Pentera, has emerged from stealth with $4 million in pre-seed funding. Investors include Inbound Capital, Gilad Shany from ION Crossover, Vikram Makija, a senior manager at Google Cloud and companies such as Fiverr and JFrog. The investment comes amid global trends where companies are seeking solutions to reduce development costs and accelerate innovation processes, especially in the current economic climate which brings challenges and a slowdown in tech investments.
The company has developed innovative technology that enables autonomous AI agents to work as an integral part of organizational development teams, understanding the organization’s work routines and standards. Organizations can gain a new Frontend Developer in the form of an AI agent that accelerates development tenfold and integrates with the existing team. This continues Faingold’s track record of creating breakthrough Israeli technology companies with global growth potential.
AutonomyAI offers a platform that learns and understands the full organizational context and generates code that can be deployed directly to the production environment. The solution transforms days of development work into minutes, improves team productivity by over 44%, and achieves a code acceptance rate of 95% while maintaining organizational standards. This represents a significant solution, as up to 50% of front-end developers’ time is dedicated to building basic components and fixing human errors-processes that cause considerable waste of valuable time and resources.
After Pentera became a unicorn and successfully changed the cybersecurity landscape with solutions currently used by Fortune 500 organizations worldwide, I identified a similar opportunity in the development world,” says Arik Faingold, Chairman and Co-founder of AutonomyAI and Chairman of technology company Commit. “We’re bringing a technological solution born in Israel that will allow companies to accelerate their development tenfold and focus on what truly matters – innovation and business value, not writing code.”
The company’s technological engine, the Agentic Context Engine, was developed entirely in Israel by a dream team of developers including four former CTOs from leading Israeli companies, led by Tamuz Dubnov, Co-founder and CTO of the company.
The technology enables AI agents to understand the full context of the organization in which they operate – including standards, infrastructure, and existing code – and develop complex software components within minutes instead of days or weeks, with an impressive code acceptance rate of 95%, compared with just 30% in the broader market.
According to research firm IDC, by 2028, the market for AI-supporting technologies will reach $749 billion, positioning AutonomyAI at a strategic intersection of a market poised for tremendous growth.
“What’s special about our solution is the ability to integrate artificial intelligence in a way that truly understands the organizational development DNA,” says Adir Ben-Yehuda, CEO of the company. “While existing AI solutions help individual developers, we enable true integration at the organizational level, utilizing organizational infrastructure, existing code, and maintaining uniform standards across the team.”
AutonomyAI’s solution comes at a critical time for technology companies in Israel and worldwide. Given economic and geopolitical challenges, and the slowdown in tech investments, organizations are forced to achieve more with fewer resources. The technology precisely addresses the need for efficiency and acceleration of development processes, with an improvement of over 44% in development team productivity.
Gilad Shany, investor and Managing Partner at ION Crossover, who has invested in many leading Israeli companies, explains, ” “The vision of the team leading AutonomyAI represents a fundamental change in how organizations use artificial intelligence, which will soon become the new standard.”
AutonomyAI’s Israeli-developed solution is already in production use by several leading customers in Israel and the US generating monthly revenue of $100,000 for the young company. The company plans to expand its Israeli development team in the coming year.
