Merlin Ventures led the funding round, with participation from existing investors, including Evolution Equity Partners, Notable Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Insight Ventures Partners and Greenfield Partners.

In 2021, Merlin Ventures pledged up to $5 million of capital funding and engineering support and go-to-market infrastructure resources to help cybersecurity startup companies become more competitive in the public sector. 

What Does Torq Offer?

Torq supports the deployment of AI agents capable of handling various complex security tasks autonomously. 

Its AI Security Operations Center, or SOC, platform, is designed to deliver end-to-end security through hyperautomation and alert triaging to reduce analyst fatigue. The platform also speeds up response to threats through Socrates, a natural language-driven agentic AI.

Ofer Smadari, CEO of Torq, said the company’s products transitions away from the legacy security orchestration, automation and response, also known as SOAR, and security information and event management, or SIEM, methods in favor of agentic AI to deliver the outcomes customers need.

“Global enterprise adoption of our AI SOC Platform has validated our vision for the future of security operations,” the executive added. “We have achieved tremendous revenue growth, with Fortune 100 customers adopting our AI Agents in their SOCs for everything from investigation to response.”

How Did Torq Grow in 2025?

As part of its expansion strategy, Torq acquired Revrod, a stealth Israeli AI startup, in April 2025. Following the acquisition, Torq integrated Revrod’s multi-agent Retrieval-Augmented Generation, or RAG, into its HyperSOC-2o to deliver comprehensive SOC automation to customers.

Torq has also reinforced its security posture by signing the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s Secure by Design Pledge, committing to proactive, transparent and continuously improving security practices across its platform.
