Rethinking Email Security for a More Human Internet

Because phishing isn’t a technology problem — it’s a behavioral one.
Cambrient uses agentic AI to understand intent, follow the attacker’s path, and protect people the way an analyst would.

Our Story

Cambrient AI was founded by two University of Virginia students who set out to rethink email security from first principles. Drawing on Armaan’s cutting-edge research in behavioral NLP, cybersecurity, and quantum computing — combined with Collin’s experience as a software engineer at Capital One and multiple early-stage startups — we built an email security platform that works fundamentally differently from traditional filters. Our mission is to create the next generation of anti-phishing tools powered by agentic AI, designed to understand intent, follow the flow of an attack, and deliver clarity to organizations and service providers everywhere.

The Problem

  • Traditional filters look for indicators, not intent.

  • Attackers now use real login pages, redirects, and generative-language manipulation.

  • Security teams and employees are overwhelmed by noise and uncertainty.

Our Approach

1. Agentic AI

Our models don’t score static signals — they investigate. They follow links, analyze login flows, and reason about attacker intent.

2. Behavioral Understanding

Phishing is about manipulating people. Our system is built to interpret behaviors, patterns, and intent like a human analyst would.

3. Explainability

Every detection comes with a clear, written explanation. No black boxes. No guessing.
