Oak Emerges from Stealth with $60M for AI-Focused Identity Management

15 July 2026

Israeli startup Oak has launched with $60 million in seed funding to address the growing complexities and security challenges posed by AI agents within enterprise identity management systems.

Oak Emerges from Stealth with $60M for AI-Focused Identity Management

Oak, an Israeli-based identity management startup co-founded by serial entrepreneur Shai Morag, has officially emerged from stealth mode. The company's launch is supported by $60 million in seed funding, a significant initial investment aimed at tackling the evolving landscape of digital identity in the age of artificial intelligence. The firm enters the market specifically to address technical friction and security vulnerabilities introduced by the proliferation of AI agents in corporate environments.

The startup focuses on the "identity mess" that occurs when autonomous AI agents require access to various systems and data sets. Traditional identity and access management frameworks often struggle to provide the granular control and visibility required for non-human entities that act on behalf of users or other services. Oak’s technology is designed to bridge these gaps, ensuring that as enterprises integrate more automated agents into their workflows, the underlying security architecture remains robust and manageable.

Details regarding the specific technological architecture or a full list of investors were not disclosed at the time of the announcement, but the substantial seed round underscores the high market demand for modern identity solutions. The company intends to use the capital to scale its operations and refine its platform to meet the needs of organizations facing rapid digital transformation. The involvement of Shai Morag, who has a history of building successful tech ventures, adds a layer of established leadership to the new enterprise.

For CIOs and IT directors, the emergence of Oak highlights a critical shift in operational security requirements. As AI agents become more prevalent in enterprise workflows, traditional identity tools may prove insufficient for managing these new types of users. This development signals a need for IT leaders to evaluate how their current identity and access management strategies will adapt to the unique authentication and authorization challenges posed by autonomous software agents.
