Visit Website ↗ + Add to Compare Claim This CompanyOverview
Almanax is a New York-based startup founded in 2024 that applies large language models to find vulnerabilities in smart contracts and code. Its model line is ALMX-1, with a successor in development, and it published the open-source Web3 Security Atlas with partners.
It has raised roughly $1-1.5M from angels and funds (reports differ) and says it holds SOC 2 Type II.
Innovation Matrix Assessment
Proprietary models and open Web3 Security Atlas show fast iteration.
Automated review can supplement costly manual audits.
Very small funding and early adoption.
LLM-native approach is differentiated but unproven.
No independent benchmarks or named catches found.
Smart-contract risk and AI-assisted analysis are both growing.
Why CISOs Should Care
Adds fast automated checks ahead of manual smart contract audits.
What Makes It Different
Security-tuned models instead of generic scanners.
The Matrix Verdict
47/100 — EMERGING / UNRANKED
Almanax is Emerging/Unranked: promising approach, too early for evidence.
Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings
Performance claims are vendor statements; funding totals conflict between sources.
