Founders, Inc. Canopy 2026
About Emfirge

Built by builders who got
tired of alert fatigue.

Emfirge is an AI cloud security agent born out of frustration with tools that list problems but never think. Selected for Founders, Inc. Canopy 2026 in San Francisco.

01 Origin
Why we built this

Cloud security tools today give you a list of 200 findings and call it a day. No context. No attack paths. No understanding of how one misconfiguration chains into another to create a real breach.

We wanted something that thinks like an attacker. Maps your infrastructure as a graph, traces paths from the internet to your data, and tells you exactly what to fix first and why.

Emfirge doesn't just find problems. It simulates breaches in natural language, detects toxic combinations of misconfigurations that multiply blast radius, and auto-remediates by opening Terraform PRs directly in your repo.

One agent. Connect once. It handles the rest.

02 Canopy 2026
Selected by Founders, Inc.

Founders, Inc. runs Canopy, a selective program in San Francisco for early-stage founders building category-defining products. Think of it as a launchpad for companies that are too early for traditional VC but too ambitious to wait.

Emfirge was selected for the 2026 cohort, joining a small group of founders working on hard problems across AI, infrastructure, and developer tools.

Being in Canopy means access to a network of operators, investors, and builders who've scaled companies from zero. It's not an accelerator. It's a community of people who ship.

For Emfirge, Canopy validates what we already knew: cloud security needs an agent, not another dashboard.

03 What makes us different

Attack Path Mapping

Live cartography graph showing every route from the internet to your data. Not a list. A map of real AWS relationships.

Breach Simulation

Ask "what if my RDS is public?" in plain English. The agent simulates the blast radius and shows cascading impact.

Auto-Remediation

AI generates Terraform HCL fixes and opens PRs in your GitHub repo. Review and merge. Never pushes to main.

Toxic Combinations

9 dangerous co-existing patterns that multiply blast radius. SSH open + no GuardDuty = brute force with zero detection.

05 The problem
What's broken today
Alert fatigue
200 findings, no priority. Teams ignore critical risks because they're buried in noise.
No context
Findings are isolated. No understanding of how misconfigs chain together into exploitable paths.
Manual remediation
Find the problem, figure out the fix, write the Terraform, open the PR. All manual. All slow.
Enterprise pricing
$100K+ contracts. Startups and small teams are priced out of real cloud security.
05 The Emfirge way
How we fix it
Priority actions
Ranked by blast radius and attack path depth. Fix what matters first, not what's loudest.
Graph-based reasoning
Infrastructure as a graph. Every finding shows the full chain, from internet entry to data exposure.
One-click remediation
AI writes the Terraform fix, opens the PR, tags the finding. You review and merge.
Startup pricing
Enterprise-grade security without enterprise-grade budgets. Usage-based, scales with your infra.
06 Coverage
18+ AWS services. One scan.

Every service is mapped into a unified graph. The agent traces relationships across services to find attack paths that single-service tools miss.
