Levo.ai
Runtime API and AI security platform that uses eBPF visibility to inventory, test and protect APIs, MCP servers and LLM workloads.

Levo.ai sells a runtime application security platform covering both APIs and AI workloads. Its sensors use eBPF to observe live traffic and build an inventory of APIs, AI agents, MCP servers, LLMs and vector stores without code changes.
The platform pairs that inventory with security testing, which the company says reports only exploitable issues tied to real traffic traces, and with runtime monitoring and inline blocking. Sensitive-data detection is described as running without sending payload data to the vendor’s cloud.
Its differentiator is treating API security and agentic AI security as one runtime problem, using the same traffic-derived visibility for both. The company is small and early-stage.
Innovation Matrix Assessment
Expanded in 2025 from API security into a five-module AI security platform with MCP discovery and testing, a fast pivot toward agent risk.
Traffic-derived inventory and exploitability-based testing target alert noise, though depth of deployment evidence is limited.
Names customers such as Five9, Square and Poshmark on its site and has a Gartner API Protection Market Guide mention, but disclosed funding is small and unverified.
eBPF-based, agentless-style discovery unifying API and AI estate is a meaningful angle but competes with many API/AI security vendors.
Awards and customer logos exist, but no independent test results or named incident evidence were found.
API and agent/MCP traffic will keep growing in importance over the next 3-5 years.
Why CISOs Should Care
API and MCP sprawl is hard to inventory; runtime traffic visibility gives a CISO a ground-truth list of what agents and APIs actually exist and are exploitable.
What Makes It Different
It builds inventory and testing from live runtime traffic via eBPF rather than from specs or code scanning, and applies it to both APIs and AI agents.
The Matrix Verdict
62/100 — INCREMENTAL INNOVATOR
Levo.ai lands in the Incremental Innovator tier. The technical approach is credible and well timed for agentic AI, but market traction and independent efficacy evidence are still thin for a seed-stage company.
Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings
Product capabilities and 'only exploitable vulnerabilities' claims come from Levo's own site. The Gartner Market Guide mention is a recommended-vendor listing, not a ranking; funding totals vary across aggregators.
