Across Israel\u2019s technology ecosystem, a new cohort of startups is scaling rapidly across artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, fintech and digital health. The 11 growth companies highlighted this year by venture capital firm Qumra Capital represent a broad cross-section of that growth: from early-stage teams building autonomous AI agents and enterprise automation tools, to more mature companies developing cloud monitoring systems, identity security platforms and advanced healthcare technologies. Together, they reflect the increasing shift in Israeli tech toward AI-native products and infrastructure-focused innovation, as well as a growing emphasis on enterprise-scale deployment across global markets.<\/p>\n

Here are Qumra Capital’s Tomorrow\u2019s Growth Companies for 2026:<\/p>\n

Alta has developed an AI agent-based platform designed to replace or augment traditional sales teams by automating the entire sales value chain. The company operates virtual agents that handle sales, operations and phone-based customer interactions.<\/p>\n

Alta trained a language model specifically for the sales industry, enabling its AI agents to conduct complex conversations, respond to objections and perform in-depth research on potential customers before making contact. The system integrates with more than 50 enterprise platforms, including Salesforce, HubSpot, WhatsApp and LinkedIn, allowing companies to manage multi-channel communication from a single platform.<\/p>\n

The company said clients have reported a threefold increase in booked meetings and savings of roughly 20 working hours per salesperson each week.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were able to reach $1 million in revenue in a short time and achieve 10x revenue growth thanks to our ability to deliver AI agents that produce work, not just generate ideas,\u201d said Levi Neumark. \u201cWe are building a product that large enterprises want.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur mission is to enable go-to-market teams to access next-generation tools. Companies don\u2019t just want a brain, they want an agent that can actually do the work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sector: Social media analytics<\/p>\n

Dig develops technology that enables companies to monitor, understand and manage their brand reputation across social video platforms. The company says its system can identify and analyze more than 90% of video content with 93% accuracy while maintaining full source tracking.<\/p>\n

The platform decodes speech, visual signals and trends in real time, providing marketing and brand teams with tools to monitor public sentiment, identify narratives, mitigate reputational risks and capitalize on emerging trends.<\/p>\n

\u201cTwo days after October 7, 2023, we used our technology in every way we could to help the country, and we saw a gap between reality and perception,\u201d said Familier. \u201cWe realized this wasn\u2019t only a problem for countries, but also for brands investing enormous resources. The conversation today is happening primarily through video, not text.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sector: Cloud infrastructure monitoring<\/p>\n

Groundcover develops a monitoring platform for applications and cloud infrastructure. Unlike many competitors that require customers to transfer data externally, Groundcover remotely accesses and monitors enterprise systems.<\/p>\n

The company argues that this model improves security and reduces costs, although it also requires customers to adopt a less conventional approach to infrastructure monitoring.<\/p>\n

\u201cMonitoring is one of the most resource-intensive functions for companies,\u201d said Azulay. \u201cWe built a system where customers don\u2019t have to choose whether or not to retain their information.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sector: AI-powered video security<\/p>\n

Lumana has developed an end-to-end AI-powered video security platform that works with existing cameras and converts raw video into real-time operational insights.<\/p>\n

The company says its system is powered by what it describes as the world\u2019s first continuously learning AI model for video analysis, enabling cameras to function as AI agents that automate monitoring, investigations and operational responses.<\/p>\n

Ben Moshe argues that real-time video analysis turns previously unused data into actionable intelligence for businesses and public authorities.<\/p>\n

\u201cVideo data is not properly monitored or analyzed,\u201d said Ben Moshe. \u201cWe realized a new architecture was needed, built with AI from the ground up for the AI era. The system processes billions of images every day. We automatically understand and analyze video quickly, collecting multiple layers of information to create a unified layer of intelligence for the physical world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sector: Data infrastructure and AI<\/p>\n

Matia, a DataOps platform built for the AI era, develops systems that help organizations organize and manage large volumes of data from multiple sources.<\/p>\n

The platform centralizes information, monitors data quality, identifies problems in real time and enables controlled data transfers across departments without requiring multiple disconnected tools. Customers include Ramp, Drata, HoneyBook and Lemonade.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know how to turn AI into real infrastructure,\u201d said Segal. \u201cWe work with leading companies and are helping drive AI adoption. It\u2019s not only about pricing, it\u2019s about building a solid data foundation. We\u2019re growing 10x every year while operating with a very small team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t talk about the future of data, we create it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Notch is building autonomous AI agents designed to manage complete business processes rather than simply answer questions. The company focuses on heavily regulated industries such as insurance and banking.<\/p>\n

Its AI agents communicate across phone calls, WhatsApp, email and enterprise systems, helping companies process claims, collect documents and update core systems automatically.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe believe every process in regulated industries such as insurance and banking should be supervised and managed,\u201d said Broschi. \u201cThat\u2019s why we built a system specifically designed for highly regulated environments. We started in insurance and developed the product alongside a major insurance company. We lived the world of regulation ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

Orchid Security develops identity security technology designed to synchronize enterprise applications with identity management systems.<\/p>\n

The platform automatically identifies applications deployed across cloud, SaaS and on-premises environments, maps identity processes and flags weaknesses against security policies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe growing number of systems and integrations creates countless opportunities for attackers,\u201d said Katmor. \u201cAI agents are already exploiting this dark world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Remepy is developing what it calls \u201chybrid medicines,\u201d combining pharmaceuticals with digital clinical protocols that include cognitive, psychological and motor interventions.<\/p>\n

The company works with pharmaceutical groups to combine traditional drugs with app-based treatment systems aimed at improving outcomes and personalizing care.<\/p>\n

\u201cI decided to bring technology into healthcare to improve how treatment is delivered to each patient,\u201d said Dr. Tsur. \u201cEveryone understands that most medical treatments involve combinations of therapies. A hybrid drug combines all of these elements into a more complete solution for patients.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FDA has been very supportive of our models and sees significant progress and encouraging results in our trials.\u201d<\/p>\n

Slice has developed an AI platform designed to automate complex equity management processes traditionally handled by accountants and legal advisers.<\/p>\n

The system manages cap tables, employee stock options, exercises, compliance reporting and liquidity events while adapting to tax and regulatory requirements across multiple countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen a company expands globally, complexity increases rapidly,\u201d said Levran. \u201cEvery employee may hold equity in a different jurisdiction, and the laws are different everywhere. Mistakes can cost companies billions of dollars.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe built the company to navigate this highly complex regulatory environment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Twofold develops an AI layer that integrates with legacy healthcare software used by clinics and smaller healthcare organizations.<\/p>\n

Rather than replacing existing systems, the company adds AI-powered functionality for doctors, psychologists, nurses and other healthcare professionals.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are changing the clinical world in the United States,\u201d said Steinberg. \u201cWe are only a year and a half old, already generating millions of dollars in revenue and serving 4,000 customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have only three employees. We\u2019re not replacing the software, we\u2019re adding an AI layer that allows clinics to work smarter. We now have 200 AI agents working for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

QuantHealth uses AI to simulate clinical trials in an effort to improve drug development success rates and reduce costs.<\/p>\n

Its system is trained on a database that includes 350 million patient files, biological data on tens of thousands of drugs, information from clinical trials, scientific papers and FDA submissions.<\/p>\n

\u201cClinical trials take a decade and cost billions of dollars, and most ultimately fail,\u201d said Inbar. \u201cWe are trying to change the rules by improving success rates, shortening timelines and helping pharmaceutical companies develop better products. We expect revenues of $200 million by 2030.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Across Israel\u2019s technology ecosystem, a new cohort of startups is scaling rapidly across artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":446757,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[220,218,219,61,60,80],"class_list":["post-446756","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446756","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=446756"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/446756\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/446757"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=446756"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=446756"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=446756"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
