Today we announced that Arcade has raised a $60M Series A led by SYN Ventures, with strategic investment from Morgan Stanley and Wipro. That brings our total funding to $72M, and Jay Leek of SYN Ventures is joining our board.

From “SSO for Agents” to the Secure Action Layer

A little over a year ago we raised $12M to build what we described as SSO for AI Agents. The thesis has only gotten stronger since: agents are easy to demo and hard to ship, and the thing standing between a demo and production is almost always the ability to take action securely on behalf of a real user.

In the time since, that idea grew into something bigger than auth alone. Arcade is now the secure action layer behind production agents - the single runtime where every agent action flows through one place that handles authorization (per-action, scoped to the real user’s permissions), agent-optimized tools that actually take action instead of just wrapping APIs, and a control plane for governing the whole tool and agent lifecycle.

Why This Round Matters

Securing agents that are actually deployed - not toys, but agents touching email, calendars, repos, CRMs, and internal systems - has become a top priority for the Fortune 500. SYN Ventures is a security-focused fund, and that’s not an accident. The hard part of agents in production is the same hard part as the rest of enterprise software: identity, permissions, auditability, and trust.

With this funding we’re:

  • Expanding the catalog of agent-optimized tools and integrations (now thousands)
  • Deepening enterprise features: governance, audit logging, and deployment models from cloud to air-gapped
  • Growing the team across engineering and research
